Knee 1 Flashcards
What is the thickness of the quad tendon?
4.1-5.1
What do sesamoids act like?
pulleys
What is the blood supply to the sesamoid bone?
geniculate system
What is the retro patellar cartilage thickness range?
2-5.5 mm
How many facets
3
How often are bipartite patella seen
1% of population
What is the normal sulcus angle and deeper means what and flatter means what
130 deg deeper or less than 130 deg early life and flatter more than 130 deg later life
What is a fat pad
fibrous, sponge like scaffold, fat-filled, and semi-liquid, so structured to be able to deform slowly when pressure is applied, regaining form quickly when pressure is removed. It is densely packed with nerves. It mechanical function is to be a space filler and hydraulic shocik absorber. It has other functions including faciliting gliding and lubrication, protection of articular surfaces and endocrine role and a neurosensory and proprioceptive role
What is the suggested normal for supra patellar bursa length and thickness
22.5 mm length and 2.5 mm thickness
What is the attachment of medial and lateral patellar retinacula?
medial origin is sartoius and lateral origin is ITB and VL-stabilize the patella
What is a crucial medial stabilizer of the knee with a relationship to the patella?
Medial Patello femoral ligament
Image of the MPFL
Remember that the MPFL is embeded in the retinaculum need to stress test and look at contra lateral side
What is the infr patellar ttendon diagnositic visual criteria
3-3.4 mm
