The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of 4 ligaments of the knee joint. It connects the femur (thigh bone) to the tibia (lower leg bone) and provides stability in the knee joint. More specifically, the ACL prevents the tibia from sliding forward or internally rotating independently of the femur.
