Absent Anterior Cruciate Ligament
This case report presents the MRI findings of aplasia of the anterior cruciate ligament with associated hypoplasia of the posterior cruciate ligament (Manner type 2). Radiographically the presence of a shallow femoral notch and hypoplastic tibial spines (the so-called "dromedar" sign) can aid in the diagnosis. Operative treatment is often not indicated

Visualizing the anterior cruciate ligament [PDF]
It is now recognized that disruption of the anterior cruciate ligament occurs more often than previously suspected and that there is a significantly higher incidence of meniscal abnormalities in its presence [1 -3]. Therefore, we believe that every effort should be made to demonstrate pathology of the anterior cruciate ligament when arthrography is ...
