ARTHROSCOPICALLY PERTINENT ANATOMY OF THE ANTEROLATERAL AND POSTEROMEDIAL BUNDLES OF THE POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT
ARTHROSCOPICALLY PERTINENT ANATOMY OF THE ANTEROLATERAL AND POSTEROMEDIAL BUNDLES OF THE POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT
The clock-face method to identify the femoral posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) attachment has poor accuracy and reproducibility. Measurements of clinically relevant anatomic structures would provide more useful surgical guidance. The purpose of this study was to describe the attachments of the anterolateral and posteromedial bundles of the PCL relative to relevant landmarks to assist with arthroscopic anatomic PCL reconstructions. During this study, dissections were performed on twenty non-paired fresh-frozen cadaveric knees. Clinical relevance: The results of the present study can assist with more anatomic tunnel placement during single and double-bundle PCL reconstructions. The results also suggest that two reconstruction tunnels are needed to reconstruct the broad femoral attachment, whereas one reconstruction tunnel should be investigated further for the compact tibial attachment.
