PCL Treatment options

Ben McMurtrie

Dear members,

Hi, My name is Nelly Shaw. I am a second year student on a clinical

placement at Geelong Hospital.

I am currently researching the options available for conservative

orthotic management of a complete tear of the posterior cruciate

ligament that occurred 6 months ago. The case study depicts the patient

as a high level footballer, who requires stability while playing, so it

also needs to be lightweight, durable and slim-lined.

What are clinicians prescribing/fitting for this type of knee

deficiency?

What componentry and designs are the most appropriate?

What are the pre-fabricated/patented options?
