Combined posterior cruciate ligament injuries.
Management of posterior cruciate ligament injuries combined with other ligamentous knee injuries must begin with an understanding of the normal anatomy and biomechanics of the knee. Careful physical examinations and judicious use of ancillary tests allow delineation of the extent of knee injury. Each combined injury can then be approached with an organized and specific plan for reconstruction, optimizing knee stability and function.
