Many products are available to assist the surgeon with bone-tendon-bone (BTB) graft harvesting and preparation. 

 
 
The parallel graft knife—with parallel blades to create a precise cut in a single pass—is designed for harvesting the patellar or quadriceps tendon during an ACL or a PCL reconstruction. 
 

 
Graft harvesting cutting guides and saw blades can harvest an ideal trapezoidal-shaped bone plug with predrilled suture holes from both the patella and the tibia; the cutting guides provide consistent, reproducible 
results during tendon harvest. 
 

 
Additional instrumentation for BTB graft preparation, including a graft harvesting osteotome and ACL graft shaper, are also available.&nbsp;

Procedure

PCL injuries occur during sports-related activities or high-velocity, traumatic accidents. Indications for operative treatment of PCL tears include acute injuries, active young patients, and either isolated grade 3 tears or combined injuries, such as a grade 2 injury with posterolateral corner instability. 

Arthrex developed several techniques for isolated PCL injuries—including PCL inlay reconstruction, double-bundle PCL reconstruction, and the transtibial PCL RetroConstruction™ procedure—that can be combined with multiligament or posterolateral corner reconstruction.
Additionally, a comprehensive line of PCL reconstruction instrumentation is available for a variety of PCL reconstruction techniques, as well as autografts and allografts and single- or double-bundle options.
