Abstract:
The anterolateral ligament is a distinct structure found in the anterolateral aspect of the knee that, in recent years, has garnered renewed attention among orthopedic and sports medicine specialists. This review aims to synthesize current anatomical, biomechanical, and clinical evidence to provide a comprehensive overview of the anterolateral ligament, characterize its relevance in knee stability, and optimize management strategies following injury. Injuries to the anterolateral ligament, often concomitant with anterior cruciate ligament tears, were found to exacerbate knee instability. The debate over the necessity and optimal technique for anterolateral ligament reconstruction remains ongoing.
