Q

Functions of the ACL

A

prevents posterior displacement of the femur on the tibia/anterior displacement of tibia on femur; prevents hyperextension of the knee and limits rotation of the tibia on the femur

17
Q

Attachments of the posterior cruciate ligament

A

posterior intercondylar area of the tibia to the lateral surface of the medial condyle of the femur

18
Q

Function of the PCL

A

prevents anterior displacement of the femur on the tibia/prevents posterior displacement of tibia on the femur

19
Q

Attachments of medial meniscus

A

anterior and posterior regions of the intercondylar area of the tibia & fibrous capsule at the medial collateral ligament

20
Q

Attachments of lateral meniscus

A

anterior & posterior regions of the intercondylar area of the tibia

21
Q

Attachments of patellar ligament

A

apex of patella to the tibial tuberosity

22
Q

Function of patellar ligament

A

resists knee flexion, serves as a component of extensor mechanism for quadriceps mm. to extend the tibia on the femur

23
Q

Attachments of medial patellofemoral ligament

A

proximal 50% of medial patell to the medial epicondyle of the femur

24
Q

Function of medial patellofemoral ligament

A

restrains against lateral patellar displacement

25
Q

Attachments of talocrural fibrous capsule

A

borders of the articular surfaces of tibia & malleoli to the margins of the trochlear surface of the talus

26
Q

Attachments of medial collateral ligament of ankle (deltoid)

A

medial malleolus to the talus, navicular, & sustentaculum tali of the calcaneous

27
Q

Function of medial collateral ligament (deltoid) of ankle

A

stabilizes joint & resists forced eversion

28
Q

Attachments of posterior talofibular ligament

A

malleolar fossa of the fibula to the lateral tubercle of the talus

29
Q

Function of posterior talofibular ligament

A

resist talocrural inversion

30
Q

A

anterior lateral malleolus of the fibula to the neck of the talus

33
Q

Function of anterior talofibular ligament

A

resist talocrural inversion and resist anterior translation of the talus

34
Q

Attachments of long plantar ligament

A

plantar surface of the calcaneous & cuboid to the plantar surface of the bases of the metatarsals

35
Q

Attachments of short plantar ligament (plantar calcaneocuboid)

A

calcaneus to the plantar surface of the cuboid

36
Q

Attachments of spring ligament (plantarcalcaneonavicular)

A

anterior margin of the sustentaculum tali to the plantar surface of navicular

37
Q

Function of spring ligament

A

supports medial longitudinal arch of the foot

38
