Synovial osteochondromatosis of the cruciate ligament
Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1998An unusual case of synovial chondromatosis of the cruciate ligaments is reported that resulted principally in a loss of function, secondary to a mechanical block to extension. Magnetic resonance imaging was useful in directing surgery, but not in making the formal diagnosis.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tears
2017Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) are two major ligaments that stabilize the knee. Injuries can occur to these ligaments by both contact and noncontact mechanisms. An injury to the ACL may present with a “popping” noise, pain and swelling, and an unsteady knee.

The cruciate ligaments in knee replacement
International Orthopaedics, 1989The cruciate ligaments were resected with their bony insertions during total knee arthroplasty carried out in 12 patients with severe rheumatoid or osteoarthritis. The ligaments were examined histologically and biomechanically, using ten specimens from healthy adults as a control.

ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT RECONSTRUCTION
The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1998Anterior cruciate ligament integrity has a crucial role in chondro-meniscal protection. Early reconstruction prevents persistent instability which may injure these intra-articular structures. Graft options are vast with an increased interest in quadriceps autograft as the donor source.

Posterior cruciate ligament injuries
Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2002There is a relative lack of research and literature investigating injuries to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), despite the fact that it is an important knee stabilizer. The PCL is injured less frequently than other knee ligaments, and the mechanism is usually a direct blow to the anterior aspect of a flexed knee.

Congenital absence of the cruciate ligaments
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2011Congenital absence of the cruciate ligaments is a rare condition with a prevalence of 0.017 per 1,000 live births. The most important finding of this study was the presence of a posterior menisco-femoral ligament of Wrisberg with cruciate ligaments agenesia and the hypothesis advanced about the development of the ligamentous structures of the knee ...

MR Imaging of Cruciate Ligaments
Magnetic Resonance Imaging Clinics of North America, 2014Cruciate ligament injuries, and in particular injuries of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), are the most commonly reconstructed ligamentous injuries of the knee. As such, accurate preoperative diagnosis is essential in optimal management of patients with cruciate ligament injuries.

The Cruciate and Collateral Ligaments [PDF]
, 2003 The ligamentous structures about the knee provide critical support and stability for knee function in athletic and occupational endeavors, as well as the activities of daily living. The major cruciate and collateral ligaments as well as the secondary supporting capsular and other supporting ligaments may be important causes of knee dysfunction both ...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear
New England Journal of Medicine, 2009n engl j med 360;14 nejm.org april 2, 2009 1463 daily for up to 4 years. Novelose was used because it was relatively easy to mix with a variety of foods. The dose used was as much as we thought we could ask participants to add to their diet. There were 97 withdrawals on the basis of “minor disorders,” as compared with 76 among participants receiving ...

Aplasia of the Cruciate Ligaments
1992Aplasia of the cruciate ligaments is rare (DeLee and Curtis 1983; Giorgi 1956; Johansson and Aparisi 1983; Torode and Gillespie 1983). Giorgi (1956), in a retrospective analysis of 2500 radiographs of the knee, found one instance in which complete absence of the intercondylar tubercles was present as a morphologic correlate of cruciate ligament aplasia
