内侧副韧带是膝关节最常见的损伤韧带之一。大多数损伤是由于膝关节外翻造成的。足球、冰球和滑雪运动的增加都导致了MCL损伤频率的增加。在接触性运动中使用预防性膝关节支撑可以防止受伤;但是,性能可能会受到影响。大多数MCL损伤的患者仅通过非手术治疗即可达到损伤前的活动水平;然而,合并韧带损伤的患者可能需要急性手术治疗。准确描述损伤的各个方面将有助于确定最佳治疗计划。
The medial collateral ligament is one of the most commonly injured ligaments of the knee. Most injuries result from a valgus force on the knee. The increased participation in football, ice hockey, and skiing has all contributed to the increased frequency of MCL injuries. Prophylactic knee bracing in contact sports may prevent injury; however, performance may suffer. The majority of patients who sustain an MCL injury will achieve their pre-injury activity level with non-operative treatment alone; however, those with combined ligamentous injuries may require acute operative care. Accurate characterization of each aspect of the injury will help to determine the optimum treatment plan.
