Injuries to the PLC often occur in combination with other ligamentous injuries to the knee; most commonly the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). [2] As with any injury, an understanding of the anatomy and functional interactions of the posterolateral corner is important to diagnosing and treating the injury.

[23] After the surgery, patient is usually monitored using arterial duplex ultrasonography 1, 3, 6, and 12 months, and annually after ...
The popliteus muscle in the leg is used for unlocking the knees when walking, by laterally rotating the femur on the tibia during the closed chain portion of the gait cycle (one with the foot in contact with the ground). In open chain movements (when the involved limb is not in contact with the ground), the popliteus muscle medially rotates the ...
Symptoms may include swelling behind the knee, stiffness, and pain. [1] If the cyst breaks open, pain may increase, and there may be swelling of the calf. [ 1 ] Rupture of a Baker's cyst may also cause bruising below the medial malleolus of the ankle (Crescent sign).
