(English) Episode 242-The Knee's Hidden Condylar Strap

The capsulo-osseous layer (COL), short lateral ligament, mid–third lateral capsular ligament, lateral capsular ligament, and anterolateral ligament (ALL) are terms that have been used interchangeably to describe what is probably the samestructure.
