[Anatomy_18] Anteroinferior popliteomeniscal fascicle 01

The anteroinferior popliteomeniscal fascicle (yellow arrow) is seen to course from the inferior aspect of the lateral meniscus posteroinferiorly to blend with fibers of the popliteofibular ligament

 

This fascicle is typically seen on sagittal slices where the fibular head is also visible.

 

In another patient, a component of the anteroinferior popliteomeniscal fascicle which courses directly to the popliteus tendon. 

 

On this sagittal image, the posterosuperior fascicle is not seen normally. Because the posterosuperior fascicle is located more medially to the anteroinferior fascicle.

 

This component is usually inconsistently visible on routine sagittal MR images
