WHAT TYPE OF JOINT IS A KNEE
|
HINGE
Although is probably more appropriate to call it a double condyloid joint because it can rotate when flexed |
|
T/F KNEE IS LARGEST AND MOST SUPERFICIAL JOINT
|
T
|
|
THREE ARTICULATIONS KNEE
|
Lateral tibiofemoral
Medial tibiofemoral Patellofemoral |
|
KNEE MOVEMENT RANGES
|
Flexion 120-150°
Extension 5-10° Internal rotation 10° External rotation 30-40 |
|
KNEE AXIS FOLLOWS AN
|
ARCH
|
|
D LOCKING OF KNEE (SCREW HOME MECH)
|
AS WE EXTEND KNEE, FEMUR ROTATES MEDIALLY OF TIBIA AND LOCKS. THIS ALLOWS US TO SUPPORT OUR WEIGHT AS WE STAND.
AS WE STAND, MUSCLES RELAX AND LIGAMENTS ARE TAUT. |
|

|
INFRAPATELLAR FAT PAD
AND INFRAPATELLAR BURSA |

|
T
|
|
Medial collateral ligament ATTACHMENTS
|
Proximal attachment: medial femoral condyle
Distal attachments Superficial layer: proximal medial tibia posterior to pes anserinus Deep layer: attaches to the medial meniscus and tibial at joint line |
|
LAT COLATERAL LIG ATTACHMENTS
|
Proximal attachment: lateral femoral condyle
Inserts head of fibula Not part of the jt. capsule |
|
WHAT ARE THE POPLITIAL LIGAMENTS AND THEIR F
|
Oblique popliteal LIG, strengthens the jt. capsule posteriorly
Arcuate popliteal LIG, “Y” shape and passes over the popliteus muscle |
|
LOCATION CUCIATE LIGS ACL AND PCL
|
Located in the central portion of the knee
They are within the capsule of the knee surrounded by synovial sheath that separates them from the synovial space (i.e., synovial fluid does not come in contact with the ligaments) |
|
ACL NAMED BY ITS
|
ATTACHMENT ON THE TIBIAL PLATEAU
|
|
ATTACHMENT ACL
|
LATERAL FEMORAL CONDYLE
ANTERIOR MEDIAL TIBIAL PLATEAU |
|
FUNCTION ACL
|
resists anterior translation of tibia on femur (promotes gliding motion)
resists hyperextension resists internal rotation of tibia |
|
PCL ATTACHMENT
|
Medial femoral condyle
Posterior tibial plateau |
|
PCL F
|
resists posterior translation of tibia on femur
|
|
2 INTRA ARTICULAR LIGS AND FUNCTION
|
Coronary ligament
Attach to menisci and tibial condyles Transverse ligament Attach to anterior |
|
F INTRA ARTICULAR LIGS
|
Stabilizers for the menisci
|
|
D MEDIAL MENISCUS
|
C shaped
Anterior and posterior horns attach to tibia MCL attaches to it |
|
D LATERAL MENISCUS
|
O shaped (almost)
It has horns too! Posterior meniscofemoral ligament |
|
BURSA KNEE
|
THERE ARE 12
Just know the Suprapatellar, Prepatellar, infrapatellar and semimembranosus bursa |
|
BLOOD SUPPLY KNEE
|
Genicular anastomosis
****The middle genicular branches from the popliteal artery supply the cruciate ligaments, synovial membranes, and peripheral margins of the menisci |
|
NERVES KNEE
|
EVERY MUSCLE THAT CROSSES KNEE SENDS OFF ARTICULAR BRANCH
|
|

HOW CAN YOU GET AN ACL INJURTY
|
Most ACL injuries are non-contact
Running and cutting sharply in an erect posture, landing from a jump without bending the knees sufficiently. |
|
SIGNS ACL INJURY
|
Hear a “pop”
Immediate swelling Knee “giving way” |
|
FACTORS RELATED TO ACL INJURIES
|
Higher in females
Narrowing of the femoral notch Q-angle Hormonal changes Development of quad and hamstring musculature |
|
HOW CAN YOU GET A PCL INJURY?
|
fall on a flexed knee
dashboard injury |
|
MENISCAL LESIONS MECH
|
Mech – weight bearing combined w/ rotary force, squatting, cutting
|
|
MENISCAL LESIONS SX
|
S&S – gradual effusion, joint line point tenderness, locking or giving away, pain on squatting
Medial meniscus has less mobility due to its attachment to the medial collateral ligament and capsule Medial is injured more often |
|
PAPETELLAR BURSITIS MECH, SX, TX
|
Mech – contact to the anterior potion of the knee
S&S – swelling directly over the patella, itching or burning sensation Manage – compression, NSAIDS, Rest |
|
WHAT IS MOST COMMONLY SPRAINED LIG IN BODY
|
The Anterior Talofibular ligament is the most commonly sprained ligament in the body
|
|
D MEDIAL AVERSION ANKLE SPRAIN. MECH AND SX.
|
5-10% of ankle sprains
Mech – forced eversion – foot pronation more susceptible S&S – pain on weight bearing, may result in some pronation |
