Viewed through the posteromedial portal, avulsion of the tibial attachment of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) can be seen (arrows).

A tibial posterior cruciate ligament guide (A) placed through the anteromedial portal is used to secure the fracture fragment (C) and to guide insertion of a threaded Kirschner wire (arrow).

A long 18‐gauge spinal needle is inserted through the posterolateral sheath and passed through the posterior cruciate ligament just proximal to the fracture fragment, and a 23‐gauge wire is
passed through the lumen of the needle.

The 23‐gauge wire or multiple sutures are pulled out through a sheath placed in the anteromedial portal, and the needle is removed.

Two bone tunnels are made from the anterior tibial cortex to the medial and lateral margins of the fracture bed.

Two looped wires are pulled distally, leading each end of the 23‐gauge wire or the multiple sutures through the medial and lateral bone tunnels.

Each end of the previously passed 23‐gauge wire or multiple sutures is pulled distally with even tension until the fracture fragment is accurately reduced.
