The posterior cruciate ligament–posterior femoral cortex angle (PCL–PCA) and the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) sign are useful parameters to indicate the progression of knee decompensation over time after an ACL injury
The posterior cruciate ligament–posterior cortex angle (angle between the most vertical part of the anterolateral PCL bundle and the posterior diaphyseal cortex of the femur; PCL–PCA) is the most accurate appr...
