The longest Ligament found in the human body is the ligament of Plantaris. This muscle is relatively small and useless which makes this ligament even more usefull because it can be used to replace other ligaments if they are damaged. Plantaris attached from the bottom part od the femur (the Lateral Condyl tp be precise) and its lon tendon runs the entire length of the Leg (in anatomy the leg reffers only the the bottom part of the Lower Limb between the knee and the ankle) where it attaches to a tarsal bone called Calcaneous. The function of this muscle is therefore to Plantar Flex the Foot (pull it down) and a little to Flex the knee but there are several other much larger muscles that can easily take care of this so the removal of the ligament is not all that consequential.
The name of the ligament is the "anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)".

The ligament of Wrisberg is in the knee. It runs from the medial femoral condyle behind the posterior cruciate ligament to the posterior horn of the lateral meniscus. If the ligament runs in front of the posterior cruciate ligament, it is a ligament of Humphries.
Medial Collateral Ligament - Liimits sideways motion Lateral Collateral Ligament - Also limits sideways motion Anterior Cruciate Ligament - Limits rotation and forward motion of the tibia. Posterior Cruciate ligament - limits the backwards motion of the knee. Patellar Ligament - attaches the kneecap to the tibia
When a ligament is torn, it is referred to as a ligament sprain. The severity of the sprain can range from mild (Grade 1) to severe (Grade 3), depending on the extent of the injury. Proper treatment and rehabilitation are important to help repair the torn ligament and regain strength and function.

An acrocoracohumeral ligament is a ligament which connects the humerus to the shoulder joint.
YES! There are at least 5 that I am aware of as a 1st year Physio student. They are: - iliofermoral ligament -ischiofemoral ligament -pubofemoral ligament -ligament of head of femur -transverse acetabular ligament
Capsular ligament, Conoid ligament, Caracoacromial ligament, Superior Transverse Scapular ligament, and Trapezoid ligament.
An anterolateral ligament is a ligament located on the outside front portion of the knee.
That is the correct spelling of "cruciate ligament." The ligaments of the knee include: anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) medial collateral ligament (MCL) fibular (lateral) collateral ligament (LCL)
The name of the ligament is the "anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)".

The ligament known as the fibular collateral ligament is also referred to as the lateral collateral ligament (LCL). It is located on the outside of the knee joint and provides stability to the knee by preventing excessive sideways movement.
