Pearls and Pitfalls of Posterolateral Corner Repair With Suture Tape Augmentation

Pearls	Pitfalls
Restoration of the soft-tissue balance around the head of the fibula is achieved.	Excessive tensioning can occur if not positioned in neutral.
A full range of motion with the foot in neutral should be established before insertion of the augmentation.	Peroneal nerve exposure can occur.
Occasional sutures can be passed through the FiberTape to prevent cheese wiring of the soft tissues and to improve the overall strength of the construct.	The popliteofibular ligament is not addressed.
