leddsidebåndene
Leddsidebåndene, also known as the lateral collateral ligaments, are a group of fibrous structures that connect the bones of the knee joint. They play a crucial role in stabilizing the knee by limiting excessive movement and providing support during activities such as walking, running, and jumping. The primary leddsidebåndene include the lateral collateral ligament (LCL), which runs from the lateral condyle of the femur to the lateral epicondyle of the tibia, and the medial collateral ligament (MCL), which connects the medial condyle of the femur to the medial epicondyle of the tibia.
The LCL is particularly important for preventing excessive lateral (outer) movement of the tibia relative to
The MCL, on the other hand, is responsible for limiting medial (inner) movement of the tibia relative
