The purpose of the study was to explain the architecture of the posterior cruciate ligament because the views on its structure presented in the literature are inconsistent — from those considering it as indivisible to those presenting it as a multifascicular structure. Twenty formalin-fixed ligaments from human knee joints were tested using the preparation technique. All posterior cruciate ligaments clearly divided into the anterolateral bundle and the posteromedial bundle (20/20). In all ligaments, 2 fascicles were identified in the posteromedial bundle (20/20). In most cases, 2 fascicles were also seen in the anterolateral bundle (14/20). Less commonly, it consisted of multiple fascicles (6/20). (Folia Morphol 2009; 68, 1: 8–12)
