“…It gives attachment to the medial gastrocnemius tendon which itself has a thick fascial attachment along its lateral aspect to the adductor magnus (AM) tendon. 1,22 The medical gastrocnemius muscle tendon unit contributes to the formation of Achilles tendon and thus is responsible for plantar flexion of the ankle. Along with this the gastrocnemius muscle provided flexion of the non-weight bearing knee and acts as an agonist for the PCL.…”

The Iyengar-Botchu confluence is a quadrilateral space on the medial side of the knee. Due to the presence of unique anatomical structures, this region is prone to injuries. The aim of this pictorial review is to illustrate an anatomical description of the structures, which form the IB complex confluence. Clinico-pathological correlation of common conditions associated with these structures will increase awareness of injuries in this area. A complementary imaging guidance will support clinical diagnosis and appropriate patient management.
