ligament chart (spine/LE) COPY Flashcards
1
Q
sacrotuberous
A
- posterior iliac spine, lateral margin of sacrum > ischial tuberosity
2
Q
sacrospinous
A
- ischial spine > lateral margin of sacrum
3
Q
fibrous joint capsule
A
- margin of acetabulum > neck, intertrochanteric line, intertrochanteric line of femur
4
Q
iliofemoral
A
- anterior inferior iliac spine > intertrochanteric line of femur
- limites extension of thigh at hip joint
5
Q
pubofemoral
A
- iliopubic eminence, superior pubic ramus > fibrous capsule
- limits abduction of femur
6
Q
ischiofemoral
A
- ischium posterior to acetabulum > greater trochanter, iliofemoral ligament
- assists iliofemoral ligament in limiting extension of femur
7
Q
ligament of head of femur (ligamentum teres)
A
- fovea of femoral head > acetabular notch
8
Q
transverse acetabular
A
- interconnects margins of acetabular notch
9
Q
fibrous capsule of knee
A
- margins of femoral condyles > margins of tibial condyles
10
Q
tibial (medial) collateral
A
- medial epicondyles of femur > medial condyle and shaft of tibia
- stabilizes medial aspect of joint (prevents abduction of tibia)
11
Q
fibular (lateral) collateral
A
- lateral epicondyles of femur > head of fibula
- stabilizes lateral aspect of joint (prevents adduction of tibia)
12
Q
anterior cruciate
A
- medial part of anterior intercondylar area of tibia > posterior part of medial surface of lateral condyle of femur
- prevent posterior displacement of femur on tibia, prevents hyperextension of knee
13
Q
posterior cruciate
A
- posterior intercondylar area of tibia > lateral surface of medial condyle off emur
- prevent anterior displacement of femur on tibia
14
Q
medial meniscus
A
- anterior and posterior regions of intercondylar area of tibia and fibrous capsule at tibial collateral ligament
15
Q
lateral meniscus
A
- anterior and posterior regions of intercondylar area of tibia
