Core Tip	In this study, we describe a novel modification to the arthroscopic M-shaped suture fixation approach for tibial avulsion fractures of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), which emphasizes the creation of a suture fixation configuration resembling the letter "M", intended to achieve a more secure anatomical fixation of the avulsed bony fragment to the tibia. And we evaluate its outcomes through a case series. Our results showed that our modified arthroscopic treatment of PCL tibial avulsion fractures provides good clinical outcomes, radiologic healing, and knee stability. This fixation technique is worthy of widespread promotion.
