Stress radiography of the MCL enables accurate diagnosis of large and complete tears and distinction between such tears and small partial tears and normal ligaments.

Intact tibiofibular ligaments were found equally frequently among patients with normal or any grade of lateral ligament damage, but the more severe injuries to the syndesmotic ligaments were associated with normal or minimally traumatized lateral ligaments. The inverse correlation can be explained on the basis of the difference between the mechanisms that precipitate these injuries.
