PCL Tear
PCL-Posterior Cruciate ligament
PCL supports the back of the knee, preventing the leg from going backwards. PCL injury results in sagging of the leg, difficulty in climbing stairs, pain, instability, and due to the altered loading patterns, long-term osteoarthritis. It is often torn along with other ligaments, especially in knee dislocations, which may require a multi-ligament reconstruction.
