Injuries of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1993
A review of the anatomy and biomechanics of the posterior cruciate ligament, and the systematic approach for the diagnosis and treatment of isolated posterior cruciate ligament injuries and posterior cruciate ligament insufficiency in combination with other ligamentous instabilities is discussed.

Reconstruction of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament

Orthopedics, 1986
ABSTRACT: Presented is a three to eight year follow up of reefing of the posterior cruciate in 20 cases, and reconstruction of the posterior cruciate with a patellar tendon, quadriceps tendon flap as a "reversed Jones' procedure" in 10 cases. Using the reefing procedure, there were six excellent results, ten acceptable, and four poor results.

Posterior cruciate ligament injuries

Current Opinion in Rheumatology, 2002
There 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.

POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT INJURIES

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1999
Treatment of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries has received renewed attention over the past few years. This article reviews the anatomy, natural history, and pathophysiology of posterior cruciate ligament injuries. Also described are the physical examination and proper imaging modalities used to diagnose the injury.

Positioning of the posterior cruciate ligament

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 1994
AbstractThe isometric position in ligament reconstruction is the one in which there is little or no change in the length of the graft with range of motion of the joint. It varies according to the positions of the tunnels that will become the attachment sites of whatever graft is being used. Better understanding of this concept that greatly improved the

Anatomy of the posterior cruciate ligament

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1989
PCL injuries are major injuries of the knee. Most of the literature on PCL injury has focused on mechanism of injury, diagnosis, and treatment. We are presenting a review of the anatomy of the PCL. Different portions of the PCL are taut at different degrees of knee flexion and extension.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Recession

Arthroscopy, 1999
Summary: Three cases of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) laxity without posterolateral rotatory instability had magnetic resonance imaging scans that documented the structural continuity of the PCL. Tibial PCL recession was effective in eliminating symptomatic laxity in 1 case and lacked efficacy in the other 2 cases.

Anatomy and Biomechanics of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament

The Journal of Knee Surgery, 2021
AbstractPosterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries are often encountered in the setting of other knee pathology and sometimes in isolation. A thorough understanding of the native PCL anatomy is crucial in the successful treatment of these injuries. The PCL consists of two independent bundles that function in a codominant relationship to perform the ...

Anatomy of the posterior cruciate ligament and the meniscofemoral ligaments

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2005
AbstractThis paper describes the anatomy of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) and the meniscofemoral ligaments (MFLs). The fibres of the PCL may be split into two functional bundles; the anterolateral bundle (ALB) and the posteromedial bundle (PMB), relating to their femoral attachments.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament

2003
The posterior cruciate ligament can be examined using axial,coronal,and sagittal T1- and T2-weighted sequences. Comfortable positioning in an extremity coil. The slice thickness should be 4 mm or less.
