Key: AP anterior–posterior direction, with positive values indicating attachment points anterior to a line along the posterior femoral cortex. PD proximal–distal direction, with positive values indicating attachment points proximal to an AP line passing through the most-posterior point of Blumensaat’s line. sMCL superficial medial collateral ligament. dMCL deep medial collateral ligament. POL posterior oblique ligament
