|
What is in the superficial layer of the lateral femorotibial joint? |
IT band Biceps femoris |
|
What is in the middle layer of the lateral femorotibial joint? |
Lateral patellofemoral ligament Lateral patellar retinaculum |
|
What is in the deep layer of the lateral femorotibial joint? |
Superificial lamina -LCL -Fabellofibular ligament (variably present) Deep lamina -Popliteus muscle/tendon (inserts anterior/distal to LCL) -Popliteofibular ligament -Capsule (extends 15 mm below joint line) -Arcuate ligament |
|
What is in the superficial layer of the medial femorotibial joint? |
Sartorius Fascia (blends w/ retinaculum anteriorly and capsule posteriorly) |
|
What is in the middle layer of the medial femorotibial joint? |
Superficial MCL (inserts 5-7 mm below joint line) Posterior Oblique ligament Medial patellofemoral lig Medial patellar retinaculum Semimenbranosus |
|
What is in the deep layer of the medial femorotibial joint? |

|
What is function of medial patellofemoral ligament? |
Primary restraint to lateral dislocation (most common) |
|
Where does superficial peroneal nerve run |
In lateral compartment of leg, crosses anteriorly 12 cm above lateral malleolus (can be injured in lateral ankle approach) |
|
Where does sural nerve run? |
Formed from medial sural cutaneous (tibial N) and lateral sural cutaneous (peroneal N) Runs subcutaneously in posterolateral leg, crosses Achilles tendon 10 cm above insertion, then to lateral heel |

IN: -No planes, capsule is under skin Dangers: -Infrapatellar branch of saphenous nerve (neuroma may develop) |
|
What is the internervous plane and dangers for posterolateral appraoch to the knee? (Harmon) |
IN: -Gastrocnemius/solius/FHL (tibial) -Peroneus longus/brevis (superf. peroneal) Dangers: -Lesser saphenous bein -Post. tibial artery |
