With popliteus tears, it is important to note
- the site of the tear (intra- articular or extra-articular),
- the extent of tear (partial or full-thickness),
- the presence of a bone fragment if there has been tendon avulsion
- degree of tendon retraction
Partial-thickness tear of the popliteus tendon, High-grade partial tearing of the PT at its femoral insertion
Most popliteus tears are extra-articular, involving the muscle or myotendinous portion.
Less commonly, injuries occur at the tendon, within the region of the popliteal hiatus, or near its femoral insertion
Normally, the popliteus tendon resists external rotation of the tibia, acting as both static and active restraint.
Injuries to the popliteus musculotendinous junction or femoral insertion are common in high-grade injuries to the PLC, with isolated injuries less common, representing less than 10% of popliteus injuries
