I'm trying to find out the origin of PCL. I want to know where it came from and how it started. Can anyone provide information on the background or history of PCL?

The PCL, or posterior cruciate ligament, has a specific origin and insertion point in the human knee.

It inserts along the posterior aspect of the tibial plateau, the flattened, upper surface of the tibia that forms part of the knee joint.

It originates from the anterolateral aspect of the medial femoral condyle, which is a bony prominence on the inner part of the thigh bone.

Within the femoral condyle, the PCL arises from a notch, a small depression or groove that provides a stable attachment point for the ligament.

From this origin, the PCL extends downwards and backwards towards the tibia, the larger bone of the lower leg.
