Tibiofemoral kinematics and kinetics results during knee flexion for different conditions of posterior cruciate ligament (reference and resected PCL). Tibiofemoral contact force during knee flexion. (a) Femoral rollback (−) during knee flexion. (b) Tibial internal (+) and external (−) rotation. (c) Flexion facet centre (FFC) position of the medial (left) and lateral (right) femoral component relative to the tibial component and marked flexion angles of 10°, 30°, 60°, 90°, and 120° (d) (blue: reference; red: PCL resection).
