Meniscus7
  • Acting in concert with the other ligaments (medial collateral, lateral collateral, and posterior cruciate) as well as with the meniscus cartilages, the ACL ensures that the femur (thighbone) rolls back and rotates on the tibia through a prescribed set of motions. (stoneclinic.com)

Multi-ligament1
  • Multi-ligament knee injury is a complex and difficult injury to manage, particularly when there are associated nerve or vascular injuries. (medscape.com)
Important ligaments1
Occurs3
  • A torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) usually occurs as a result of an acute noncontact deceleration injury, forceful hyperextension, or excessive rotational forces about the knee. (bmj.com)
  • If any of those ligaments or cartilages is injured, that elegant rotation is disrupted-and, just as with car tires that are out of alignment, rapid wear on the joint surfaces occurs. (stoneclinic.com)
  • This type of injury occurs when at least one ligament in the knee is stretched or torn, often because of sudden or direct impact or twisting of the ligament. (sportsinjurycenters.com)
Femur to the lateral2
  • The LCL connects the femur to the lateral bone in the lower leg, the fibula, and stabilizes the outer side. (otcbrace.com)
  • The LCL extends from the lateral epicondyle of the femur to the lateral surface of the fibular head. (medscape.com)
Fibular head1
  • The lateral collateral ligament (LCL) provides lateral stability and runs from the lateral femoral epicondyl to the fibular head. (medscape.com)
Muscles2
  • Ligaments connect bone to bone and are responsible as a last stabilizer for a joint after the muscles - like the brakes on a car. (chihealth.com)
  • Acromion acts as a stabilizer of shoulder joint through a number of ligaments and muscles attached to it. (traumainternational.co.in)
Popliteus tendon1

Stable2

  • Ligaments in and around the knee keep it in a stable position. (medscape.com)
Bone5
Side of the knee2
  • The lateral collateral ligament (LCL) is located at the outer side of the knee joint. (otcbrace.com)
  • Injuries to the collateral ligaments, like the medial collateral ligament (MCL) and lateral collateral ligament (LCL), are usually caused by a direct blow to the side of the knee, or a twisting injury. (healthxchange.sg)
Stability7
  • The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) provide stability for front and back (anterior and posterior) and rotation movements. (webmd.com)
  • The medial collateral ligament (MCL) and lateral collateral ligament (LCL), found along the inner (medial) and outer (lateral) sides of the knee, give stability to the knee in those areas. (webmd.com)
