From the description of the parallel and oblique fibers of the tibial collateral ligament, it can be seen that the parallel fibers are not attached to the medial meniscus.
Variable bursae are located deep to the tibial collateral ligament. Calcification of the most superior bursa may account for certain cases of Pellegrini-Stieda disease.
