Posterior Cruciate Ligament

2016
The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is an intra-articular structure, surrounded by synovial membrane, and it provides about 95 % of the total resistance to posterior translation of the tibia. Its tensile strength is nearly twice that of the ACL [1].

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.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament: Current Concepts Review.

The Archives of Bone & Joint Surgery, 2018
The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is the largest and strongest ligament in the human knee, and the primary posterior stabilizer. Recent anatomy and biomechanical studies have provided an improved understanding of PCL function.

Tibial Slope and Its Effect on Graft Force in Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructions

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2019
Background: A flattened posterior tibial slope may cause excessive unwanted stress on the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction graft and place patients at risk for PCL reconstruction graft failure. To date, there is a paucity of biomechanical

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

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1991
PCL reconstruction is not often necessary. Arthroscopic techniques using autograft or allograft substitution for the PCL probably bear more physiologic and anatomic likeness to the normal ligament than to tissue transfers posteriorly. The arthroscopic procedure is exacting and technically demanding.

Tibial Slope and Its Effect on Force in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Grafts: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Force Increases Linearly as Posterior Tibial Slope Increases

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2019
Background: Previous work has reported that increased tibial slope is directly correlated with increased anterior tibial translation, possibly predisposing patients to higher rates of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears and causing higher rates of ACL

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

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.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Recession

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1999
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.
