1) Medial Collateral Ligament
2) Medial Meniscus
3) Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL)

Skull
Vertebral Column
Thorax (Sternum & Ribs)
Bone Composition
25% H2O
25% Organic Matrix
50% Inorganic Matrix
What do Osteoblasts do?
They produce the ECM which consists of:
1) Collagen Fibers (give bone shape & resiliency)
2) GAGs
What do Osteoclasts do?
They enable the bone to remodel w/ osteoblasts
-Derived from 5-50 monocytes
-They secrete acids to break down inorganic matrix, and proteolytic enzymes to brake down organic matrix
Synovial Joints
- Have joint capsule w/ synovial membrane
- Synovial fluid in membrane
- External ligaments protect synovial membrane
Function of Synovial Fluid
1) Decrease friction between joints
2) Help absorb compression stress
3) Provides nutrients and removes waste from the articular cartilage
What tarsal bone acts as a hinge joint?
Talus (Subtalar Joint, to attach to calcaneus)
What ligament is often sprained or ruptured in an inversion sprain?
Calcaneofibular Ligament
What two ligaments form the support for the syndesmosis of the Distal Tibiofibular Joint?
Anterior Tibiofibular Ligament
Posterior Tibiofibular Ligament
What does the ACL do?
The ACL helps prevent anterior slippage of tibia with respect to femur
What does the PCL do?
The PCL helps prevent anterior slippage of femur with respect to tibia
What're the four movements of the hip joint and what planes do they move in?
1) Flex/Extend --> Sagittal
2) Abduction/Adduction --> Frontal
3) Medial/Lateral Rotation --> Transverse
4) Horizontal Abducttion/Adduction --> Transverse
What is the strongest hip joint ligament?
Iliofemoral Ligament
When do the hip joint ligaments get tight?
During hyperextension
If you increase the torsion angle of the femur, what is that called and what does it cause?
"Antiversion"
Pigeon-toed or Toed-In
If you decrease the torsion angle of the femur, what is that called and what does it cause?
"Retroversion"
Toed-Out
In what angulation of the hip is a hip fracture most common?
Coxa Vara
What is the function of the Acetabular Labrum?
It is a fibrocartilage rim that
-stabilizes the joint
-deepens the socket
What is the blood supply to the femoral head?
"Blood Supply to Femoral Head", is branched off from the obturator artery
