Protruding anterior medial meniscus-An indirect sign of posterior cruciate ligament deficiency

We found a mean PROTAMM of 3.6 mm in patients with PCL rupture. We suggest that this sign, after knee injury in an otherwise normal medial meniscus, is a promising indirect sign of PCL deficiency compared to PPS. Implementation of this sign in clinical practice may improve the sensitivity of routine non-weight bearing MRI in identifying PCL deficient knees.
