Revision Posterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery
Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2017Successful posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction surgery results from identification and treatment of associated pathology such as posterolateral instability, posteromedial instability, and lower extremity malalignment. The use of strong graft material, properly placed tunnels to as closely as possible approximate the PCL insertion sites ...

The posterior cruciate ligament serves a complex purpose throughout the entire flexion arc, acting primarily to prevent posterior travel of the tibia, but also performing secondary varus, valgus and rotational stabilizing roles when the collateral ligaments are deficient.

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.

Combined Posterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1994Management of posterior cruciate ligament injuries combined with other ligamentous knee injuries must begin with an understanding of the normal anatomy and biomechanics of the knee. Careful physical examinations and judicious use of ancillary tests allow delineation of the extent of knee injury.

Posterior cruciate ligament injuries
Trauma, 2010Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries occur following both high-velocity trauma (motor vehicle collisions) and low-velocity trauma (sporting injuries) with the most common cause being high-velocity trauma resulting in so-called ‘dash board injuries’.

Transtibial Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
The Journal of Knee Surgery, 2021AbstractThe keys to successful posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction are to identify and treat all pathology, utilize strong graft material, accurately place tunnels in anatomic insertion sites, minimize graft bending, mechanical graft tensioning, secure graft fixation, and the appropriate postoperative rehabilitation program.

Anterior and posterior cruciate ligament injuries
Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2004Knee pain is a common complaint in the primary care setting, and ACL and PCL injuries are common causes of knee pain. Therefore, it is important for the primary care physician to be skilled in the diagnosis and initial management of these injuries and to be aware of potential associated knee injuries.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
1994The diagnosis and treatment of injuries to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and posterolateral structures of the knee have received increased attention over the past decade; however, our knowledge concerning the natural history of PCL tears is small compared with our current understanding of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) [PDF]
, 2012 Its mean length is 38 mm and mean width is 13 mm. It becomes thinner as it approaches the tibia, and it is partially embedded within the joint capsule. Its tibial attachment site is located 1 cm below the articular surface.

Arthroscopic posterior cruciate ligament repair
Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 2002We present our technique of arthroscopic repair for femoral avulsion soft-tissue tears of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and its results.Case series, retrospective review.We performed 13 arthroscopic repairs of the PCL and reviewed them retrospectively. Follow-up was available for 11 (85%) patients. Nonabsorbable monofilament sutures were placed
