Rupture bilatérale du ligament croisé antérieur chez un joueur de ski traitée par une ligamentoplastie DIDT sous arthroscopie en un seul temps opératoire
Abstract
We report the case of a 25-year-old patient who suffered a ski accident that causing a serious knees sprain. The patient underwent immobilization by plaster knees. After 12 rehabilitation sessions, good progress was noticed in terms of pain. However, the patient is unstable when walking and a positive Trillat Lachman sign at both knees is observed. MRI of Knees confirmed a bilateral rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (figures A, B). We conducted a ligament ACL with the DIDT technique on both knees, beginning with the left- side. After the surgery, everything was normal. Xray controls (face and profile views) of both knees showed a good positioning of implants (figures C, D). Rehabilitation was undertaken the day following the surgery. Six months later, the patient was able to return to sport.
