The Role of the Posterior Oblique Ligament in Repairs of Acute Medial (Collateral) Ligament Tears of the Knee
Abstract
The anatomy, function, and surgical repair of the posteromedial capsular and ligamentous structures, called here the posterior oblique ligament, are described on the basis of anatomical dissections of seventeen amputated lower limbs and on the analysis of the operative findings and results of repair in fifty patients treated for ligament and capsular tears in the medial compartment. In addition, the anterior cruciate ligament was torn in some patients but not the posterior cruciate.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
