Abstract Posterior tibial translation (PTT) after double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction has sometimes occurred. Purpose of this study is to identify the risk factors for postoperative PTT after double-bundle PCL reconstruction with a hamstring autograft. Comparing the results of bilateral gravity sag view (GSV) at 12 months after surgery, over 5-mm PTT was defined as ‘failure’ in this study. Of 26 isolated PCL reconstruction cases, over 5-mm PTT was seen in 7 cases (group F: 9.57 ± 1.28 mm), and 19 cases had less than 5 mm (group G: 2.84 ± 1.29 mm). Age, sex, body mass index (BMI), preoperative GSV, posterior slope angle of the tibia, anterolateral bundle (ALB) and posteromedial bundle (PMB) graft diameters, and tibial tunnel diameter were evaluated. The two groups were compared with the 2 × 2 chi-squared test, the Mann Whitney U-test, and Spearman’s rank correlation coefficient. Multivariate logistic regression analysis was also performed to determine the risk factor. Statistical significance was indicated as p
