The anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL, sits just in front of the PCL. The ACL is much better known, in part because injuries to the ACL are much more commonly diagnosed than injuries to the PCL.
The PCL comprised of a bundle of ligament fibers attaching the back of the tibia (shinbone) to the femur (thigh bone) in the knee. It is one of the two cruciate ligaments in the knee (the other being the anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL).The PCL crosses the ACL in an X shaped pattern.The ligaments work together to control the forward and backward motion of the knee. several stabilizing ligaments of the knee.t is one of the two cruciate ligaments in the knee (the other being the anterior cruciate ligament, or ACL).
