Which of the following structures is often damaged along with the ACL and MCL?
a. Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)
b. Transverse carpal ligament
c. Lateral collateral ligament
check d. Medial meniscus
Explanation: The ACL (anterior cruciate ligament), MCL (medial collateral ligament) and medial meniscus, when damaged by a partial or complete tear, are referred to as a blown knee. The regularity in which these three structures are simultaneously damaged has earned a few other nicknames, including the "terrible triad", "horrible triangle" and "O'Donough's unhappy triad".
