Knee joint anatomy involves looking at each of the different structures in and around the knee. The knee joint is the largest and one of the most complex joints in the human body. There are variousmusclesthat control movement,ligamentsthat give stability, specialcartilageto absorb pressure and va...
ANATOMY The knee joint functions as a stabilizer for the lower extremity during weight bearing and allows large range of motion for various functional activities. The two primary articulations of the knee joint are the tibiofemoral joint and the patellofemoral joint....
The knee joint is made up of the articulations between the femur, tibia, and patella bones, and is one of the largest and most complex joints of the human body. The knee is classified as a synovial hinge joint, which primarily allows forflexionFlexionExamination of the Upper Limbsandextension...

Bursæ.—The bursæ near the knee-joint are the following: In front there are four bursæ: a large one is interposed between the patella and the skin, a small one between the upper part of the tibia and the ligamentum patellæ, a third between the lower part of the tuberosity ...
Figure 1. Knee joint anatomy.3 Articular surfaces The distal end of the femur and the proximal end of the tibia are both covered by a layer ofhyaline cartilage, which allows the bones to slide over each other easily. The proximal end of the tibia is also covered by twomenisci. Each meni...

Extension of the leg at the knee joint; flexion of the hip Vastus lateralis Originates on the greater trochanter and upper lateral surface of the linea aspera; inserts on the patella via the quadriceps tendon, and the tibial tuberosity via the patellar ligament Extension of the leg at the...
The sartorial branch of the saphenous nerve: its anatomy at the joint line of the knee. Purpose: Injury to the saphenous nerve accounts for the majority of neurovascular complications during arthroscopic meniscal repairs. Although the anatomy ......
They get their name from where they attach to the tibia, i.e. the ACL attaches to the anterior (front) surface of the tibia and the PCL to the posterior (back) surface. The cruciate ligaments job is to control the forwards and backwards movement of the knee joint. They are also import...
