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 Injury

2021
Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries are rare in pediatric populations, and there are relatively little data on the epidemiology, natural history, and optimal management of these injuries. Motor vehicle accidents and sporting events are the most common causes of PCL injuries in children.

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. The PCL, thus, along with the ACL, contributes to the "screwhome

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Graft Fixation Angles, Part 1

American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2014
Background: Currently, no consensus exists for the optimal graft fixation angle for anatomic single-bundle (SB) posterior cruciate ligament reconstructions (PCLRs). Additionally, direct graft forces have not been measured.

Reconstruction of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament

2020
This chapter describes our technique for arthroscopic single-bundle reconstruction of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) with quadriceps tendon autograft. This technique can be adjusted to achieve a double-bundle reconstruction.

Ganglion cysts of the posterior cruciate ligament

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 2003
Ganglion cysts arising from the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) of the knee are rare. Thirteen cases have been reported with detailed description in the English literature. In this study, 3 cases of ganglion cyst arising from the PCL of the knee are described and comparatively reviewed with the literature. This case report draws attention to clinical
