18
Q

hip joint

A

ball and socket articulation between acetabulum and head of the femur

19
Q

Sacrotuberous ligament

A

runs from the sacrum to the lateral angle of the ischiatic tuberosity. origin of muscles

20
Q

trochanteric bursa

A

padding on the greater trochanter of the femur to the acetabulum

21
Q

ligament of the femoral head

A

between the femoral head and the acetabulum; prevents movement of the femoral head out of the acetabulum

22
Q

fovea capitis femoris

A

where the ligament of the femoral head attaches (on the head)

23
Q

transverse acetabular ligament

A

holds ligament of femoral head in place; connects the 2 sides of the acetabular notch

24
Q

menisci of the stifle

A

medial and lateral; provide geometry for smooth padding of the femoral head in the stifle

25
what are menisci made of
semilunar fibrocartilage

cranial
34
lateral and medial femoropatellar ligaments
extend between patella and sesamoid (like a t) and hold femur in place
35
lateral and collateral ligaments of the stifle
prevent adduction and abduction
36
cranial crucial ligament
attached to medial meniscus and medial collateral ligament prevents hyperextension
37
caudal crucial ligament
from the intercondylar fossa of femur to medial condyle of femur prevents caudal movement of the tibia beneath the femur when the limb bears weight
38
tibiofibular joint
articulation between fibula and tibia
39
tarsocrual joint
tibia and tarsus articulation
40
tarsometatarsal joint
articulation between base of metatarsal and distal surface of tarsus
41
metatarsalphalangeal joint
synovial joints between toes
