While much detail is known about each anatomic structure of the knee and its contributory effect on biomechanics, our understanding is still evolving. In particular, the function of the meniscofemoral ligaments and their anatomical variants have yet to be fully described. In this report, a never-before-described anatomical meniscofemoral ligament variant intra-substance to the PCL is presented. Arthroscopists should be aware of the novel variant as a growing number of studies have demonstrated the biomechanical importance of the meniscofemoral ligaments in protecting the lateral meniscus and supporting the function of the PCL.Level of Evidence: IV.
虽然我们对膝关节的每个解剖结构及其对生物力学的影响都有了很多了解,但我们的认识仍在不断发展。特别是,半月板股骨韧带的功能及其解剖变异仍有待充分描述。在本报告中,介绍了一种以前从未描述过的位于后交叉韧带内的半月板股骨韧带解剖变异。由于越来越多的研究表明半月板股骨韧带在保护外侧半月板和支持后交叉韧带功能方面具有重要的生物力学意义,因此关节镜医生应该意识到这种新的变异。
