Reviewing the magnetic resonance imaging anatomy of the posterolateral corner of the knee and its applied importance

Abstract

The purpose of this article is to review the anatomy and magnetic resonance imaging appearances of all the structures which are noted in the posterolateral corner of the knee. These structures may not be commonly heard of but play a crucial role in providing the required stability and force to the knee joint. We hope that by putting light on this less explored part of the knee this article will be useful to many practicing clinicians and operating orthopedicians
