The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of combined posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and postero-lateral corner (PLC) reconstruction on laxity and three-dimensional kinematics of cadaver knees. We performed anatomical double bundle PCL reconstruction, and functional one bundle 'over-the-bottom' PCL reconstruction combined with one type of PLC reconstruction, running from the postero-lateral tibia to an isometric point near the lateral epicondyle of the femur. Our results showed that combined reconstruction was necessary to restore rotatory laxity. PLC reconstruction, according to the technique described, invariably created a shift towards internal rotation of the kinematic curves, compared to the intact knee.
