Collaterals, the MCL.
0:04
Let's start with the superficial layer,
0:07
layer number one, also known, seen here labeled C, as the crus layer.
0:13
And this might be a little bit confusing because this superficial layer,
0:18
one of the pitfalls, includes something called the deep fascia.
0:22
So don't get confused by that.
0:24
Another potential confusing pitfall is the middle layer.
0:27
It's called the superficial portion of the MCL.
0:30
But more on that at another time.
0:33
Let's look in the axial projection.
0:35
So this would be anterior, this would be posterior.
0:38
This is medial, this is lateral.
0:41
Here is layer number one.
0:44
It is formed by the deep fascia.
0:47
And that deep fascia may receive some fibers from the patella retinaculum.
0:52
Again, this is also called the crus or crural fascia.
0:56
Immediately underneath it is a more
0:58
condensed, thicker structure, which, in part, represents the medial
1:02
patellofemoral ligament, a patellar stabilizer.
1:05
And if you follow that back, it will eventually become the superficial
1:11
middle layer or the superficial MCL, or middle layer of the MCL, or layer number
1:17
two, what you might have called the tibial collateral ligament.
1:20
So these two are contiguous and these two are contiguous.
1:25
This one becoming layer number one, sitting on top of layer number two.
1:31
So layer number one,
1:33
the most superficial aspect of the MCL, which includes some retinacular fibers
1:38
and something called the deep fascia, also known by the synonym as the crus layer
1:44
or superficial crus layer of the MCL.
