This paper reports a novel method for reconstructing the posterolateral structures [lateral collateral ligament (LCL), popliteus tendon, popliteofibular ligament] based on an anatomical study of a cadaveric dissection. The popliteus tendon was found to always be attached to the anterior-inferior portion of the femoral attachment site of the LCL, and the average distance from the origin of the popliteal tendon in the femoral side to that of the LCL was 18.5 mm (17-20).
