From: A biomechanical analysis of triangular medial knee reconstruction
The changes in the knee joint of each group were observed under a force of 10 N.m. After initial sectioning of the sMCL and POL, we observed significantly increased valgus rotation at all knee flexion angles. In addition, a significant decrease was observed after sMCL and POL reconstruction compared with the deficient sMCL and POL states at all knee flexion angles. A significant increase was observed in valgus angulation of the anatomically reconstructed knee compared with the intact reconstruction at 0° of knee flexion. The mean valgus angulation with the triangular reconstruction was significantly different from the normal knee at 0° of knee flexion
