ABSTRACT

Objective@#To evaluate the short-term effect of arthroscopic Endobutton combined with Orthocord suture fixation for tibia eminence fracture of anterior cruciate ligament in adults.@*Methods@#The data of 9 adult patients with tibia eminence fracture of anterior cruciate ligament treated with Endobutton combined with Orthocord suture fixation from April 2017 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. The range of motion of knee joint and the stability of knee joint were recorded 3 and 6 months after operation.@*Results@#All patients were followed up for 3 and 6 months after operation. CT examination showed fracture reduction and healing 2 months after operation, and magnetic resonance image examination showed good anterior cruciate ligament tension 3 months after operation. The range of motion of knee joint was 0°-130° after 3 and 6 months, and Lanchman test was negative. The Lysholm score was (45.2 ± 6.7) scores, and IKDC score was (55.1 ± 7.3) scores before operation. The Lysholm score was (89.1 ± 7.2) scores, IKDC score was(87.4 ± 6.1) scores, Lysholm score was (95.4 ± 6.5) scores and IKDC score was (93.2 ± 7.8) scores at 6 months after operation.@*Conclusions@#Endobutton combined with Orthocord suture fixation under arthroscopy has a good short-term effect in the treatment tibia eminence fracture of anterior cruciate ligament in adults.
