Medial Collateral (Tibial Collateral) Ligament. The medial collateral (tibial collateral) ligament is a broad, flat band of tissue that connects the medial condyle of the femur (thighbone) to the medial condyle of the tibia at the knee joint. It helps with resisting force from the kneeâs outer surface, preventing side-to-side displacement of the knee in the inner direction. Adductor Tubercle.
There are four ligaments around the knee joint. A ligament is a tough strip of connective tissue that joins one bone to another bone around a joint. The knee joint ligaments help to stabilise and support the knee when it is moved into different positions. Each ligament has a different job to do: 1  The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is one of the ligaments on the side of the knee joint. 2  The lateral collateral ligament (LCL) is the other main ligament on the other side of the knee joint. 3  The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the ligaments inside the knee joint.
