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.
The coraco-acromial ligament is important first for the stability of the shoulder joint and second because it can impinge on the rotator cuff. In this study we demonstrate how the coraco-acromial ligament can be shown by magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the axial plane as well as in the more conv
