Reconstruction of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is one of the trickiest arthroscopic surgical operations. 20% of all knee ligament-related injuries are PCL injuries. These can happen alone or as a result of polyligament injury. There has been an increase in interest in treating PCL injuries as a result of the possibility of PCL repair using the all-inside approach. The need for PCL rebuilding is becoming more and more evident because the PCL is one of the body's strongest ligaments and a key barrier to the tibia's posterior translation. When attempting arthroscopic PCL reconstruction, surgeons frequently struggle to navigate the infamous deadly turn. In 7 patients, 6 men and 1 woman, we describe the use of the GraftLink graft construct through the posteromedial portal.
