Lateral Knee Anatomy Question 54M lateral pain 4 weeks post injury MRI


Mohamed Gaceb shared this with me….I’m guessing it is "PL" which is the Plantaris Longus origin
I’ve never seen a femoral avulsion of the Plantaris Longus… maybe I missed it

Thanks!

There is marrow edema at the cranial margin of the LFC deep to the origin of whatever it is that is torn….it’s next to the intact FCL (as I see it)…is it capsule? Seems to possibly insert onto the fabella…but I don’t find a fabellofemoral ligament…may I make one up?
It’s purely an academic question…I’m sure it will heal…just wondering.

Thanks

Hilary
