## Abstract ## Purpose To explore the healing process of the injured posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) by evaluating instability measurements and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings. ## Materials and Methods A retrospective crossβsectional study of 46 cases of complete PCL tear who obtaine
## Abstract Ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) tears may be nondisplaced or displaced relative to the adductor pollicis aponeurosis. Nondisplaced tears typically heal with immobilization whereas displaced tears require surgery. Nineteen patients with UCL injuries were evaluated using MR imaging (MRI),
We reviewed 30 patients operated on because of acute (n = 14) or chronic (n = 16) rupture of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) with an average follow-up time of 6.9 years. The clinical outcome was expressed using the OAK and the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) evaluation forms.
