📌 Anatomy of the Arcuate Ligament
- Y-shaped thickening of the posterolateral capsule
- Runs to apex of fibular styloid process
- Lateral limb attaches to lateral femoral condyle and posterolateral joint capsule
- Medial limb attaches to posterior knee capsule and oblique popliteal ligament
✅ Variability and Visualization
- Variably present structure
- Difficult to visualize directly on MRI even when present
✅ Key Point 1: No Need to Decipher Exact Anatomy
- Injury can be inferred from increased pericapsular signal around posterolateral capsule
- Torn medial limb seen posterior to popliteus tendon
- Integrity inferred from intact posterolateral joint line capsule
✅ Key Point 2: Sagittal Anatomy to Remember
- Popliteus tendon lies deepest, easy to identify
- Lateral inferior genicular vessel also easily seen
- Medial limb between popliteus and genicular vessel
- Fabellofibular ligament superficial to genicular vessel, connects to fabella
- If fabellofibular ligament prominent, lateral limb may be small/absent
