ANATOMICAL STUDY OF THE MORPHOMETRY OF THE TIBIAL AND FEMORAL ATTACHMENT SITES OF THE POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT; Estudio anatómico de la morfometría de los sitios de inserción tibial y femoral del ligamento cruzado posterior.

Resumen

, Although later isolated injuries cruciate of the ligament (PCL) are managed through non-operative rehabilitation, reconstruction is becoming ITS anatomic increasingly important. This study Provides Information Regarding the position and variability of Its tibial attachment sites, dimensions of the femoral insertions, Between These Comparing males and females, and Between right and left knees. Thirty one cadaveric knees (15 right, 16 left) from nine female and seven male cadavers ( mean age 77 years) Were Examined. The PCL footprint Which was Identified from the mean length and width of the tibial anterolateral (AL) and posteromedial (PM) 8.7 and 10.9 mm Were bundles, and 7.3 and 13.44mm respectively. The mean length and width of the tibial footprint in males and females 10.2 and 10.3 mm Were, and 7.7 and 11.4 mm for the AL bundle and 8.2 and 14.2 mm and 12.9 mm and 6.7 for the PM bundle respectively. The mean anatomical position of the AL and 51.0% Were PM bundles and 50.0% of the mediolateral diameter of the tibial plateau. The mean lengths and widths of the PCL femoral attachment Were 9.4 mm and 12.8 for the AL bundle and 7.5 and 11.4 mm for the PM bundle, with the AL bundle attachment being Significantly larger (P = 0.034) in evils. No Difference between right and left knees Were Observed . The data presented here will aid in making decisions to Achieve Appropriate anatomic PCL reconstruction.

, Although isolated lesions of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) are Treated by non-operative rehabilitation, anatomical reconstruction've Become increasingly important. This study Provides information on the position and variability of the binding sites of the tibia, the dimensions of the femoral insertions, Comparing them Between the sexes, and Between the right and left knee. They Were Examined thirty-one (15 right and 16 left knees) of 9 women and 7 dead bodies of males (mean age 77 years). Brand LCP was Identified from the length and width anterolateral and posteromedial (PM) of the tibia (AL) Were the results 8.7 and 10.9 mm, and 7.3 and 13.44mm respectively. The average length and width of the mark of the tibia in the male and female Were 10.2 and 10.3 mm and 7.7 mm and 11.4 for fiber AL, 8.2 and 14.2 mm and 6.7 mm and 12.9 for PM, respectively fiber. The average anatomical position of the tendons AL and PM Were 51.0% and 50.0% of the mediolateral diameter of the tibial plateau. Half lengths and widths of the PCL femoral insertion Were 9.4 and 12.8 mm for the tendon AL and 7.5 and 11.4 mm for the PM tendon, tendon insertion site AL was Significantly higher (P = 0.034) in men. no Difference Between the right and left Knees Were Observed. The data presented here will help in the decision-PCL suitable for anatomical reconstruction decisions.
