We report a case of intra-articular fracture of a bioabsorbable fixation device from the femoral tunnel in an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a bone-tendon-bone graft. Thirteen months after successful reconstruction surgery, the patient experienced episodes of locking and medial joint pain. There was no history of trauma and no symptoms of instability or swelling. On revision arthroscopy, a fractured tip of a bioabsorbable RIGIDfix cross pin (Mitek, Westwood, MA) was identified in the medial compartment of the knee. There was a broad area of chondral erosion affecting the medial femoral condyle and a small defect to the medial tibial plateau where the loose body had been lodged. The bone-tendon-bone graft was intact without disruption. After arthroscopy, the patient was symptom free for 3 weeks but then developed further symptoms of locking. Magnetic resonance imaging showed another loose body within the knee. A repeat arthroscopy was performed 6 weeks after the earlier procedure and another piece of the polylactic acid RIGIDfix cross pin was removed, this time from the lateral gutter. This case raises concern about the potential for breakage and resultant loose body formation that may occur after bioabsorbable cross-pin fixation and, particularly, the associated chondral damage that can occur if early intervention is not conducted.
