Video Summary
The video discusses intercruciate ligament reconstruction for patients with open growth plates, specifically focusing on pediatric populations. Different techniques and approaches are discussed based on the age and growth remaining in the patient. For prepubescent patients with two or more years of growth remaining, ficeal sparing techniques are preferred. In pubescent adolescents with one to two years of growth remaining, trans-ficeal sockets or tunnels with ficeal respecting techniques are used. Older adolescents with closing growth plates can undergo any adult ACL-type reconstruction technique. The advantages and disadvantages of different techniques such as the IT band technique and all-epiphyseal technique are also discussed. The video highlights ongoing studies and systematic reviews to compare the outcomes of these techniques. The speaker credits the PLUTO group, a multicenter group of surgeons, for their work in studying these techniques. The enrollment data shows a large number of patients and future reports will provide further insights.
