Ligaments of the knee
LCL( Lateral collateral ligament)
PCL ( Posterior cruciate ligament)
MCL( Medial collateral ligament)
ACL( Anterior cruciate ligament)
Greater attention to involved lower extremity eccentric strength may greatly
enhance patient function following knee rehabilitation. Restoring involved
lower extremity strength and power within 80% – 90% of the noninvolved
lower extremity before sport-specific training is recommended. Muscular
strength test has been proposed to be an important tool to determine if an
athlete can return to competitive sports after ACL reconstruction.
