Medial Collateral Ligament Knee Injury

Medial Collateral Ligament Knee Injury

The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is a flat band of connective tissue that runs from the medial epicondyle of the femur to the medial condyle of the tibia. Its role is to provide valgus stability to the knee joint. MCL injuries often occur in sports, especially in skiing. Sixty percent of skiing knee injuries involve the MCL. This activity describes the evaluation and management of medial collateral ligament injuries and highlights the role of the interprofessional team in the care of affected patients.
