Learning outcomes
  • To describe the osseous structures of the knee
    joint and their articulations
  • To describe the cartilaginous and ligamentous
    structures of the knee
  • To demonstrate surface anatomy of the knee
  • To demonstrate knee joint range of motion
  • To understand knee joint stability and sporting
    actions that may put the knee at risk of injury

6
Bony structures
  • Largest joint in the body
  • Double condyloid joint (hinge-like)
  • Distal femur, proximal tibia and patella are
    involved

7
Bony structures
  • Medial and lateral femoral condyles
  • Intercondylar notch
  • Patella (trochlea) groove
  • Medial and lateral tibial condyles (plateaux)
  • Intercondylar eminence/ridge
  • Patella

8
Knee ligaments
  • Collateral
  • medial (tibial)
  • lateral (fibular)
  • Cruciates
  • anterior
  • posterior

9
Anterior cruciate ligament
  • Med. surface of lat. Femoral condyle-gt ant. I-C
    eminence
  • Resists excessive ant. movement of tibia on femur
  • Prevents hyperext.
  • Controls tibia in screw home mechanism
  • Aids resistance of excesisve valgus stress

11
Posterior cruciate ligament
  • Anterior part of lat. aspect of med.fem condyle
    -gt IC ridge (behind meniscal attachments)
  • Prevents excessive posterior displacement of
    tibia on femur

12
Menisci
  • Medial and Lateral
  • Lateral circular, mobile, attached to popliteus
  • Medial C shaped, less mobile
  • Pressure absorbers
  • Joint stability
  • Lubrication

17
Movements of the knee
  • 135 deg of extension plus 5-10 deg of
    hyperextension
  • 140 deg of flexion
  • With knee flexed gt35 deg
  • 30 deg int rotation
  • 45 deg ext rotation

18
Knee stability
  • Ligaments provide static stability
  • Quads and hamstring contractions provide dynamic
    stability
  • Congruency of the knee joint is provided by
  • shape of articular surfaces of tibia and femur
  • menisci deepen the tibial fossae

19
Phantom Foot / ACL Injury
  • Skier falls backwards
  • Hips below knees
  • Uphill ski unweighted
  • Weight on inside edge of downhill ski tail
  • Upper body facing downhill ski
  • Anterior force on tibia vs
  • Body weight moving post. over rigid boot femur
    rotates on tibia
