Anteromedial rotatory instability of the knee: present state of the art of surgery.
Anteromedial rotatory instability normally is not difficult to diagnose and therefore to repair during the acute stage. Posterior oblique ligament advancement is useful in treating both acute and chronic cases. Advancement of the capsular arm of the semimembranosus and advancement of the semitendinosus may both be added in cases of severe chronic instability. The outlook for anteromedial rotary instability, while best for repairs of acute cases, is still favorable for reconstruction of chronic cases.
