Recently, new studies have shown an important role for the medial ligament complex in anterior cruciate ligament injuries. The study of the structures present in this complex is of crucial importance in orthopaedic surgical practice, seeking to increasingly understand how injuries occur and how to improve postoperative results. This study describes the step-by-step process for performing anatomic dissection of the medial complex in search of the anterior oblique ligament, which has shown promise in adding stability to reconstructions of the anterior cruciate ligament.
