Posterior Sag Test - Clinical Examination
For more knee ligament injury video tutorials, visit the AMBOSS Library Article: https://go.amboss.com/SagTest The posterior sag test can help identify a torn posterior cruciate ligament. The correct position to conduct and asses the posterior sag test is with the knee and hip flexed to 90 degrees. Remember to ask the patient to press their heel down, which can make the indentation (tibia sags posteriorly) more apparent.
