Abstract:Background: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) represent the central pivot of the knee. The balance between these two ligaments impacts the tibiofemoral biomechanics. Each structure is the opposite of the other in terms of anteroposterior translation and rotation.
Aim: The aim of this study was to find a correlation between the cross-sectional area of the ACL and PCL in adults.
Material and methods: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) data analysis was… Show more
