Effect of Anatomic Variations in the Anterior Tibial Artery on Risk of Injury During Orthopaedic Knee Surgeries
HTO cut, PCL reconstruction tunnel, and lateral meniscus posterior root tunnel instrumentation were significantly closer to the ATA in knees with type II-A2 anatomy compared with normal (type I) anatomy. Careful analysis of vasculature using MRI may be of utility for select surgery about the knee to guide surgical technique.
