The arcuate popliteal ligament is an Y-shaped extracapsular ligament of the knee. [1] [2]: 138 It is formed as a thickening of the posterior fibres of the joint capsule of the knee. [2]: 138 It reinforces the knee joint capsule inferolaterally. [3]
The oblique popliteal ligament is a radiation of the tendon of the semimembranosus on the medial side, from where it is direct laterally and proximally. The arcuate popliteal ligament originates on the apex of the head of the fibula to stretch proximally, crosses the tendon of the popliteus muscle, and passes into the capsule. [10]: 206
The infrapatellar plica, in front of the anterior cruciate ligament, reaches from the intercondylar notch to the infrapatellar fat pad; The medial patellar plica, located adjacent to the patella's medial facet, runs vertically along the medial joint capsule

The oblique popliteal ligament (posterior ligament) is a broad, flat, fibrous ligament on the posterior knee. [1] It is an extension of the tendon of the semimembranosus muscle. [1] [2] It attaches onto the intercondylar fossa and lateral condyle of the femur. [2] It reinforces the posterior central portion of the knee joint capsule. [3]
The lateral collateral ligament (LCL, long external lateral ligament or fibular collateral ligament) is an extrinsic ligament of the knee located on the lateral side of the knee. [ 1 ] [ verification needed ] [ 2 ] Its superior attachment is at the lateral epicondyle of the femur (superoposterior to the popliteal groove); its inferior ...
