Triple-Bundle Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction: The Medial Arrow Technique [PDF]
Arthroscopy TechniquesMedial knee injuries are common and sometimes overlooked in cases of anterior cruciate ligament injuries. Persistent anteromedial rotatory instability can lead to chronic pain and later anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction failure.

Anatomic Medial Collateral Ligament, Posterior Oblique Ligament, and Double-Bundle Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructions With Concomitant Distal Femoral Osteotomy in the Setting of a Chronic Injury [PDF]
Arthroscopy TechniquesThe medial collateral ligament provides stability against valgus stress applied to the knee. Medial knee ligament injuries often occur concomitantly with posterior cruciate ligament injuries and may be aggravated by valgus malalignment.

Arthroscopic Imbrication of the Anterior Bundle of the Elbow Medial Collateral Ligament With a 70° Arthroscope (MI70 Procedure) [PDF]
Arthroscopy TechniquesMost medial collateral injuries require very challenging therapeutic management, even for expert surgeons. After the failure of conservative treatment, the physician’s first choice should be a minimally invasive surgical technique.

Distal Medial Collateral Ligament Avulsion Repair [PDF]
Arthroscopy TechniquesThe ability of the knee to resist valgus stress is largely a result of the integrity of the superficial medial collateral ligament (MCL) and neighboring supporting structures (i.e., deep MCL, semimembranosus, and posterior oblique ligament).

Review: Medial collateral ligament injuries [PDF]
Journal of Orthopaedics, 2017 The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is a major stabilizer of the knee joint. It is the most common ligament injured in the knee, particularly in athletes, and has been reported to be torn in 7.9% of all knee injuries.2 The MCL has a complex, layered anatomy with multiple insertions and functions.

Elbow medial collateral ligament injuries [PDF]
Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2008 Elbow medial collateral ligament sprain occurs when the elbow is subjected to a valgus force exceeding the tensile properties of the medial collateral ligament (MCL). This is an injury seen more often in throwing athletes. Understanding the differential diagnosis of medial elbow pain is paramount to diagnose MCL injury as well as addressing other ...
