- A knee sprain involves the stretching or tearing of one or more knee ligaments: the medial collateral ligament (MCL), the lateral collateral ligament (LCL), the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). A sprain is mild when the ligaments are stretched. A sprain is moderate when there is a rupture of the lateral ligaments alone.Severe sprains correspond to a complete rupture of one of the cruciate and/or lateral ligaments.
