A

MCL

18
Q

LCL resists varus forces especially at _______

A

35 degrees flexion

19
Q

Anterior vs Posterior joint capsule reinforcement

A

Anterior- Quad + Patella retinaculum

Posterior - OPL + Popliteus + Gastroc + hamstrings + posterior arcuate complex

20
Q

What muscles support the medial joint capsule?

What muscles support the lateral joint capsule?

A

medial- muscles at pes anserinus

Lateral- Biceps femoris + popliteus + lateral head of gastroc

21
Q

What is the hoffman’s fat pad

Tibia on femur

26
Q

Close chain rolling and gliding of knee

A

Opposite

Convex on concave
Femur on tibia

27
Q

What is the action of the poplitues muscle

A

UNLOCKS knee knee with tibial internal rotation

28
Q

What are the 3 causes of the screw home mechanism (locking)

A

Shape of medial femoral condyle
Passive tension of ACL
Lateral pull of quadriceps

29
