Résumé
Ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) reconstruction of the medial elbow is considered to be the gold standard for treating valgus instability seen in overhead throwing athletes. The first UCL construction was performed by Frank Jobe in 1974, and this procedure has evolved over time to include multiple techniques that improved the biomechanical strength of the graft fixation and maximize the rate of return to athletic competition for these patients. The most common UCL-reconstruction technique used today is the docking technique. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our technique, including pearls and pitfalls, which combines the many advantages of the docking technique with a proximal single-tunnel suspensory fixation technique. This method allows for optimal tensioning of the graft, allowing for secure fixation that relies on metal implants as opposed to tying sutures over a proximal bone bridge.
