Q

collateral ligaments of the knee

characteristics, 2 functions, 2 kinds

A
  • taut when the knee is fully extended

FUNCTION:
1. stability while standing
2. prevents excessive M&L displacement of the joint
— as flexion proceeds, they become increasingly slack, permitting & limiting (serving as check ligaments for) rotation at the knee

PARTS:
1. Tibial collateral ligament (TCL) ⇒ aka medial collateral ligament (MCL)

  1. Fibular collateral ligament (FCL) ⇒ aka lateral collateral ligament (LCL)

Q

2 types of cruciate ligaments

function

A

F: prevent anterior or posterior displacement of the tibia & femur

  1. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)
    — Extends posteriorly & laterally from the anterior of the tibia to the posterior part of the medial surface of the lateral condyle of the femur
    —– From anterior of tibia to (goes back to the) posterior of femur
    — F: Limits hyperextension of the knee + anterior sliding of tibia on the femur
  2. Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL)
    — Extends anteriorly & medially from a posterior depression on the tibia & lateral meniscus to the anterior part of the medial condyle of the femur
    — F: prevents posterior sliding of the tibia (& anterior sliding of the femur) when knee = flexed
17
Q

plural, components, 2 functions
