Mechanoreceptors of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament [PDF]

Journal of International Medical Research, 2008
The mechanical role of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments in the passive and functional stability of the knee joint has been well documented. Both these knee joint ligaments contain Ruffini, Pacinian, Golgi and free nerve endings with different capabilities of providing the central nervous system with information regarding movement and ...

We have studied 48 patients with posterior cruciate ligament injury and 14 knees from fresh frozen cadavers. A diagnosis of posterior cruciate ligament injury was made by the sag and posterior drawer signs and stress x-ray films, the latter being useful in the grossly swollen and multiple ligament-injured knee.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament

Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2019
Posterior cruciate ligament injuries may occur as an isolated injury or in combination with other ligaments in the multiple-ligament injured knee. Caution must be exercised in chronic posterior cruciate ligament injuries since the MRI may demonstrate a normal-appearing posterior cruciate ligament even when there is significant laxity on clinical ...

Computational analysis of tibial slope adjustment with fixed-bearing medial unicompartmental knee arthroplasty in ACL- and PCL-deficient models

Bone & Joint Research, 2022
Aims: A functional anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) has been assumed to be required for patients undergoing unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA). However, this assumption has not been thoroughly tested. Therefore,
