Résumé
The primary posterior stabilizer of the knee is the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), the largest intra-articular ligament in the human knee. One of the four primary ligaments of the knee joint, the PCL, serves to support the tibia on the femur. An extreme force applied anteriorly to the proximal tibia of the flexed knee results in trauma to the PCL. Dashboard injuries, which occur when the knee is driven into the dashboard after a collision with a motor vehicle, are frequent causes. Grade 1 and 2 acute injuries are often addressed conservatively due to the PCL's natural capacity for mending. If a grade 3 injury occurs, a cautious trial can be conducted on elderly or low-demand patients. When standard treatment for isolated grade 3 injuries has failed, surgery is advised. Single-bundle or double-bundle techniques using either transtibial tunnel or tibial inlay techniques are among the reconstruction approaches. Restoring the natural kinematics of the knee and forestalling persistent posterior and mixed rotatory knee laxity are the ultimate goals of treating PCL injuries through a personalized strategy. These injuries may become more common in the future as more people participate in sports. As a result of ongoing instability, discomfort, diminished function, and the emergence of inflammatory and degenerative disorders of joints, PCL rips are becoming more well-acknowledged as a cause of morbidity and decreased function.
