Medial femorotibial recess
Recessus femorotibialis medialis
Definition
The medial femorotibial recess is situated on the medial side of the knee, adjacent to the medial femoral condyle and the medial tibial plateau. It is often involved in the communication with the posterior cruciate ligament recess, as described in the study by de Abreu et al.. This recess can be visualized on MR imaging, particularly when contrast material is injected into the joint, highlighting its communication with the medial compartment of the knee
