  • Title: Combined anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and unicompartmental knee arthroplasty: surgical technique.
    Author: Dervin GF, Conway AF, Thurston P.
    Journal: Orthopedics; 2007 May; 30(5 Suppl):39-41. PubMed ID: 17549866.
    Abstract:
    Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction can be safely combined with medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty from a technical point of view. The procedure has been performed in younger patients with the goal of preserving bone in case of need for future revision. The short-term results are encouraging although longer-term data are necessary to thoroughly evaluate the role of this procedure in patients with medial compartment osteoarthritis and ACL deficiency.
