Title: [Practical aspects of knee anatomy]. Author: Lazennec JY, Trabelsi R. Journal: Rev Prat; 1998 Oct 15; 48(16):1755-8. PubMed ID: 9834651. Abstract: The anatomy of the knee provides a standardised description of articular surfaces, ligament and tendinous insertions in order to understand the combined action of the femoro-tibial and femoro-patellar compartments, as well as their stabilisation mechanisms. Nevertheless, the isolated vision of the articulation is insufficient; one also needs to study the global action of the limb by integrating the rotation of the whole skeletal body and its positions in the sagittal and frontal plans.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
