The aim of this study is to assess the outcomes of the combined quadriceps tendon-bone (QTB) ACLR and MCLR with anteromedial reinforcement performed as described in the published technique: K. Malinowski, K. Hermanowicz, A. Góralczyk, R.F. LaPrade, Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction With Anteromedial Reinforcement for Medial and Anteromedial Rotatory Instability of the Knee, Arthrosc. Tech. 8 (2019) e807-e814. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eats.2019.03.019.
Medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries are one of the most common sports knee injuries, commonly occuring together with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. Their effect on the knee joint can be detrimental with patients experiencing medial instability and anteromedial rotatory instability (AMRI), leading to progressive damage of the intraarticular structures. While healing potential of medial knee stabilizing structures is relatively high, medial collateral ligament reconstruction (MCLR) is sometimes indicated. Multiple reconstructions techniques were described, including both procedures utilizing native semitendinosus tendon with distal attachment left intact as well as with auto- or allo-grafts. However, in part of these techniques, AMRI is not addressed.
Therefore, the aim of this study is to assess the outcomes of the combined quadriceps tendon-bone (QTB) ACLR and MCLR with anteromedial reinforcement performed as described in the published technique: K. Malinowski, K. Hermanowicz, A. Góralczyk, R.F. LaPrade, Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction With Anteromedial Reinforcement for Medial and Anteromedial Rotatory Instability of the Knee, Arthrosc. Tech. 8 (2019) e807-e814. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.eats.2019.03.019.
The primary outcome consists of The International Knee Documentation Committee Questionnaire (IKDC) and the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS).

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Main arm of the study | Experimental | Medial knee instabilities will be addressed in this arm. Due to the fact that isolated injury of medial stabilizers of the knees is very rare, included will be patients with D concomitant ACL QTB reconstruction and MCL reconstruction. Any accompanying intraarticular injuries such as meniscal lesions will be addressed as well. 17 patients will be included in this arm - this number was calculated and rounded up as a mean of number patients from studies of Alm et al. 2021 (17 patients in ACLR+MCLR group), Lee et al. 2020 (10 patients in ACLR+MCLR group), Kitamura et al. 2013 (16 patients in ACLR+MCLR group), LaPrade et al. 2012 (8 patients in ACLR+MCLR group), Lind et al. 2009 (34 patients in ACLR+MCLR group) and Kim et al. 2008 (12 patients in ACLR+MCLR group). All above referenced studies apart from the study of LaPrade et al. were retrospective. |
