It is most commonly used after a knee injury that causes a \u201cbony avulsion\u201d fracture at the PCL attachment. The goal is to restore knee stability by securing the avulsed bone fragment back to its original position. It is used in orthopedics and sports medicine for traumatic knee instability and certain fracture patterns."}
