Abstract: KprZut L i n d b l o mMost authors who described arthrographic findings in the knee joint, gave attention only to the menisci.Other authors also studied arthritis, free bodies, ligamentous lesions etc. but none of them gave any complete description of the normal or involved ligaments as seen on the arthrogram.The arthrographic visibility of the crucial ligaments has even been contradicted (SGHUM). .The authors who made arthrographic studies of the ligaments of the knee joint, were HOFFA, BIRCHER, OBERHOLZER, STOR, KROMER and SCHAER.HOFFA found the posterior crucial ligament visible in the lateral view.He used air as contrast medium.BIRCHER, using perabrodil combined with oxygen, found that the crucial ligaments in the frontal view formed a broad band from the eminentia intercondyloidea of the tibia to the intercondylar fossa of the femur.He did not mention the lateral view.
