Joints Flashcards
what type of joint is the hip
synovial ball and socket
what articulates in hip joint
head of femur and acetabulum
what deepens the hip joint
transverse acetebular ligament
and acetabular labrum
where does the capsule of the hip joint attach
superior to the brim of acetabulum and interior to the intertrochanteric line
what are layers of the hip capsule
superficial lamina and deep
what is the general structure of superficial lamina of hip capsule
longitudinally oriented fibers that limit extension
what is the general structure of the deep lamina of hip capsule
circularly arranged fibers (zona orbicularis)
“screw home effect”
Which ligament in the hip joint makes an inverted Y
iliofemoral ligament
where does the iliofemoral lig attach
superior AIIS and inferior to intertrochanteric line and anterior inferior greater torchanter
what does the iliofemoral lig prevent
hyperextension
which ligament in hip is in the medial inferior portion
pubofemoral lig
what does the pubofemoral lig prevent
hyperABduction and hyperextension
where does pubofemoral lig attach
medial brim of pubic portion of actebabulum and laterall to neck of femur near lesser trochanter
which ligament of hip joint has a posterior free margin
the ischiofemoral lig
what is the intracapsular lig of hip joint
ligamentum teres capitis femoris
what does the ligamentum trees capitis femoris limit
ADduction
what does the synovial lining not “line” in the capsule
articular elements
what m does the synovial lining of hip joint provide bursa for
obturator externus posteriorly
what supplies hip joint blood
lateral and medial femoral circumflex aa, superior and inferior gluteal aa, obturator a
what artery runs through ligamentum trees capitis femoris
obturator a
what is greater in motion of hip joint; lateral or medial rotation
lateral
what type of joint is the knee
synovial, modified hinge
what are the osseous contributions for joint stability of knee
increase in SA thorugh expanded roller surface of femur and tibial plateau
What part of the knee joint guides rotation
intercondylar eminences
why are there small openings in the posterior capsule of knee joint
to allow for bursar and synovial cavity communication
expansions of vastus medialis and lateralis form what for knee joint
the lateral and medial patellar retinacula
what m is the oblique popliteal ligament an expansion of
semimembranosus
what m is the arcuate popliteal ligament an expansion of
biceps femoris to fibular head, arches over popliteus
What are the extracapsular lig of the knee
ligamentum patellae, MCL and LCL
what is the ligamentum patella an extension of
quads tendon
describe MCL
broad and thin, attaches to the medial meniscus
describe LCL
pencil like cord, not attached to lateral meniscus and also is reinforced by intracapsular ligaments
What does the synocium not line
articular surfaces and cruciate ligaments
What is the infrapatellar synovial fold
extends from infrapatellar fat pad to cruciate ligaments. divide into lateral and medial tibiofemoral compartments
