After completion of this video session, it is expected that you will be able to:
Identify the shape of the tibial and patellar articular surfaces on the distal end of the femur.
Identify the proximal end of the tibia and its features: the tibial plateaus, intercondylar eminence, intercondylar area, tibial tuberosity, medial and lateral condyles
List and identify the factors involved in the stability of the knee: bone, muscles, and ligaments.
Describe the components of the knee joint:
ligaments: ligamentum patellae, collateral ligaments, cruciate ligaments, oblique popliteal, arcuate popliteal, transverse ligament.
special structures: menisci, tendon of popliteus
movements: passive locking and active unlocking
Identify the attachments and understand the function of the popliteus muscle in unlocking the knee.
Describe the anatomical structures and forces that are involved in the "unhappy triad" of the knee.
Describe the functional anatomy of the menisci.
Explain the differences between the medial and lateral menisci, collateral ligaments, and cruciate ligaments.
Describe the radiographic features around the knee joint in posteroanterior and lateral views.
