After tibial fixation with either a standard interference screw or staple, femoral fixation of the semitendinosus tendon is performed with the adjustable-loop suspensory fixation device, which allows for both initial graft tensioning and re-tensioning after cyclical knee range of motion. This provides the ability for the graft to accommodate for resultant soft-tissue creep and stress relaxation, thereby allowing for optimal soft-tissue tension and reduction in laxity at the end of the procedure.</pubmed_abstract><journal>Arthroscopy techniques</journal><pagination>e261-5</pagination><full_dataset_link>https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC4523812</full_dataset_link><repository>biostudies-literature</repository><pubmed_title>A Technique of Superficial Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction Using an Adjustable-Loop Suspensory Fixation Device.</pubmed_title><pmcid>PMC4523812</pmcid><pubmed_authors>Getgood A</pubmed_authors><pubmed_authors>Deo S</pubmed_authors></additional><is_claimable>false</is_claimable><name>A Technique of Superficial Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction Using an Adjustable-Loop Suspensory Fixation Device.</name><description>This report describes superficial medial collateral ligament reconstruction of the knee using a novel method of graft fixation with the ACL Tightrope RT (Arthrex, Naples, FL).
