What is Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) Injury? The posterior cruciate ligament, or PCL, is one of four ligaments important to the stability of the knee joint. 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 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a ligament inside the knee that prevents the tibia (shinbone) from sliding forward relative to the thigh bone (femur).he ACL can be injured in pivoting sports such as in soccer, when the foot is planted and the knee twists, or in basketball, when landing awkwardly from a jump. It is often seen in skiing injuries, as well. Female athletes are three to nine times more likely to sustain an ACL injury compared to males.
