What ligaments are torn in the unhappy triad?

November 17, 2011 0 Comments

The anterior crucial ligament, meniscus, and medial crucial ligament are the three ligaments and tendons that are injured in the unhappy triad. They can be either partially or fully torn. This specific combination of injuries, since there are three is known as the unhappy triad, or also referred to as the O’Donaghue triad after one of the doctors who worked on it.
