Illustration of the anatomy of the anterior cruciate ligament of a right human knee in a lateral anterior view. The anterior cruciate ligament stabilizes the knee joint by preventing the tibia from sliding forward relative to the femur. Note: The distance from femur to tibia/fibula has been increased in the picture for better visibility of the structures.
