Reconstruction of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament With Allograft

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1994
PCL reconstruction is often a necessary procedure to regain functional knee stability. The procedures used are not able to precisely recreate normal anatomy but are able to provide functional stability to posteriorly destabilized knees when properly performed.

Anterior and posterior cruciate ligament injuries

Primary Care: Clinics in Office Practice, 2004
Knee 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.

Postoperative Rehabilitation of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament

Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2010
Diagnosis and management of posterior cruciate ligament injuries has evolved, and now the treatment often includes surgical intervention. The purpose of this paper is to define the current approach to postsurgical management after the posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, review conservative management, and discuss surgical outcomes using a ...

Arthroscopic posterior cruciate ligament repair

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 2002
We 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

Transtibial Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

The Journal of Knee Surgery, 2021
AbstractThe 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.

Diagnosing Posterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries

The Physician and Sportsmedicine, 1997
Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries are difficult to detect because patients rarely present with findings that suggest a severe ligament injury. The keys to diagnosis include learning the mechanism of injury and performing a posterior drawer test. A complete knee exam rules out associated injuries.

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].

Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tears

2017
Anterior 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.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament

2004
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.
