Abstract
Soft tissue knee injuries represent a large spectrum of pathology from the minor sprain to devastating knee dislocations. Taking a clear, focussed history and listening to the minutiae that the patient divulges give clues to the mechanism and thus the suspected patterns of injury. A thorough knee examination will allow you to narrow your differential and organize appropriate timely investigations to assist your diagnosis. This article aims to give you background information about the structure and function of the knee and diagnosis of common knee complaints.
