Knee Morphology and Proximal Tibial Bone Quality around the Posterior Cruciate Ligament Insertion Site Affect Injury Patterns
Lower notch width index and medial tibial depth are associated with PCL injuries. Shallower medial tibial depth and lower Hounsfield unit measurements around the PCL insertion site were associated with an increased incidence of PCL avulsion fractures. These findings may assist clinicians in identifying patients at risk of distinct PCL injury patterns.
