Figure Lengend Snippet: Intraoperative images of reconstructive technique. A: Achilles bone block secured with screws with tensioning of graft proximally by transosseous tunnel technique; B: Dermal allograft placed overlying Achilles allograft using transverse slit to pass excess proximal tendon graft. Dermal allograft secured proximal to inferior pole patella with knotless fiber tack anchors; C: Dermal allograft secured distally with four swivel lock anchors with speed bridge technique and fiber tape; D: Extra proximal Achilles allograft reinforced to quadriceps tendon.
Article Snippet: Two knotless fiber tack anchors (Arthrex, Naples FL) were then placed on the medial and lateral borders of the inferior pole of the patella.
Techniques: Blocking Assay
