Knee

Condition Anatomy 

The PMC includes stabilizers that prevent inward collapse and excessive internal rotation of the knee. It supports overall medial knee stability. 

Understanding the Injury

These injuries result from rotational trauma, sports collisions, or valgus stress. 

Symptoms include: medial knee pain, giving way, swelling, and limited ability to pivot. 

Non-Surgical Treatment Options

  • Bracing 
  • Physical Therapy 
  • Corrective Strengthening Programs 

Surgical Treatment Options 

  • PMC Reconstruction in Advanced Instability
  • Combined Ligament Repair when Necessary

    Untreated PMC Injuries compromise ACL and MCL repairs. 

Special Considerations 

Recovery Expectations 

Non-Surgical Recovery: 6-10 Weeks

Surgical Recovery: 6-9 Months

Delayed leads to chronic instability and cartilage overload
