The invention relates to a joint implant, in particular the knee joint comprising a femoral part, the insert and tibial parts. The femoral portion of the knee joint is formed by a shell (1) is connectable to a distal portion of the femur (2), p ricem as the reference surfaces that ...
The knee joint is formed by the articulation of the distal end of the femur and the proximal end of the tibia. The fibula is only involved to the extent that it serves as an attachment site for connective tissue. In this paper, the anatomy of the joint will be discussed. 881 Words 4...
A polyethylene insert is attached to the metal tibial component. The insert will support the body's weight and allow the femur to glide across the tibia. 将聚乙烯垫片装到金属胫骨组件上。垫片能承受身体的重量,并有利于股...
The meniscus is a thickened cartilage pad between the two joints formed by the femur and tibia. The meniscus acts as a smooth surface for the joint to move on. The knee joint is surrounded by fluid-filled sacs called bursae, which serve as gliding surfaces that reduce friction of the tendo...

104 Words 1 Page Open Document The knee joint supports the body weight of a person while absorbing shock to the body. The main function is to allow your lower leg to bend. Normal range of motion of the knee joint is considered to be 0 degrees of extension (straight knee joint) to 135...
The joint of the human knee is formed by the low friction and movable contact between the femur (thigh bone) and the tibia (shin bone). The upper extremity of the tibia has a surface defined by a generally centrally located prominence, referred to as the intercondular eminence, extending ge...
These ligaments provide stability to the joint formed by the femur and tibia (i.e., the knee). In a broad sense, prosthetic knee joints can be considered either constrained or unconstrained. For the purposes of this discussion, constrained prosthetic knees include femoral and tibial prosthetic ...
