Multiple knee ligament injuries are defined as a disruption of any combination of the four main ligament complexes; the cruciate ligaments, posterolateral corner, and posteromedial corner. Evaluation requires consideration of the entire clinical picture, including injury to associated structures, directions and degree of instability, neurovascular compromise and appropriate imaging, and physical examination. Reconstruction is favored over repair and anatomic- based reconstruction techniques have been validated to restore the native biomechanics of the knee and lead to successful patient-reported and objective outcomes. Anatomic-based reconstruction of many knee ligaments simultaneously requires precise knowledge of the relevant anatomical landmarks, careful planning of reconstruction tunnel positions, and orientations to avoid tunnel convergence, and employment of immediate early motion in the post-operative rehabilitation regimen to provide the patient the best chance for relatively normal use of the affected limb.
