  • Publication number: 20160100931
    Abstract: Instruments, implants and methods to concomitantly perform unicompartmental knee resurfacing and cruciate ligament reconstruction procedures. Unicondylar knee resurfacing is conducted with concomitant knee ligament reconstruction (such as, for example, GraftLink® All-Inside ACL Reconstruction using TightRope® ABS) and employing retrograde drilling. Retrograde drilling, which starts at the level of the resurfacing implants and travels away from the joint line and resurfacing implants, allows for more precise placement of the drill holes and also the drill trajectory, to avoid undermining the resurfacing implants. Retrograde drills also allow the surgeon to see the drill hole footprint at the joint line and resurfacing implant level more accurately, so the surgeon can place the starting point of the drill hole away from the resurfacing implants.
