Email: [email protected] Abstract: The upper end of tibia is expanded to form a mass that consists of two parts: lateral and medial condyles which articulate with the corresponding condylar surfaces of the femur. Separating these two condyles is the intercondylar area whose central part is raised to form the intercondylar eminence. The present study will give information of the exact dimensions and percentage covered by medial and lateral condyles out of total condylar area. This study was undertaken to collect metrical data about the medial and lateral condyles of tibia. The present study was performed on 150 dry tibia of north Indian subjects, Out of which 70 tibia belonged to right side and 80 were of left side. The age and sex of these bones were not known. The anteroposterior length of medial and lateral tibial condylar area was measured along with their transverse diameter. The data was statistically analyzed to hold comparisons between tibia of right and left side and also between medial and lateral tibial condyles of the same side. The area covered by MTC is 38.56% and by LTC is 35.97% out of total condylar area in right side.

With the knee in slight flexion, the patient is instructed to isometrically contract the quadriceps. The hip is also flexed, abducted, and medially rotated. Using a perpendicular palpation technique, the edges of the tract can be identified slightly proximal to the level of the base of the patella (Fig. 6.50). Note • The tract is found directly over the lateral epicondyle when the knee is in 30−40° flexion. Less flexion shifts the tract so that it is then anterior to the epicondyle, while more flexion moves it posteriorly. It now be- comes apparent that the iliotibial tract must slide over the epicondyle during the gait cycle. This can oc- casionally cause symptoms. • A significant number of tract fibers extend down to the lateral edge of the patella and insert slightly distal to the vastus lateralis tendon.

  • The Anatomy of the Medial Part of the Knee
    LaPrade.fm Page 2000 Thursday, August 16, 2007 12:24 PM COPYRIGHT © 2007 BY THE JOURNAL OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY, INCORPORATED The Anatomy of the Medial Part of the Knee By Robert F. LaPrade, MD, PhD, Anders Hauge Engebretsen, Medical Student, Thuan V. Ly, MD, Steinar Johansen, MD, Fred A. Wentorf, MS, and Lars Engebretsen, MD, PhD Investigation performed at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota Background: While the anatomy of the medial part of the knee has been described qualitatively, quantitative de- scriptions of the attachment sites of the main medial knee structures have not been reported. The purpose of the present study was to verify the qualitative anatomy of medial knee structures and to perform a quantitative evaluation of their anatomic attachment sites as well as their relationships to pertinent osseous landmarks. Methods: Dissections were performed and measurements were made for eight nonpaired fresh-frozen cadaveric knees with use of an electromagnetic three-dimensional tracking sensor system. Results: In addition to the medial epicondyle and the adductor tubercle, a third osseous prominence, the gastrocne- mius tubercle, which corresponded to the attachment site of the medial gastrocnemius tendon, was identified. The average length of the superficial medial (tibial) collateral ligament was 94.8 mm. The superficial medial collateral lig- ament femoral attachment was 3.2 mm proximal and 4.8 mm posterior to the medial epicondyle. The superficial me- dial collateral ligament had two separate attachments on the tibia. The distal attachment of the superficial medial collateral ligament on the tibia was 61.2 mm distal to the knee joint.

The tibial tubercle is the bony attachment on the large bone of the lower leg (tibia) of the big, powerful thigh muscle (quadriceps). The growth plate is an area of relative weakness, and injury to it occurs due to repeated stress or vigorous exercise. It is a temporary condition of the tibial tubercle that is uncommon after age 16. Common Signs and Symptoms • A slightly swollen, warm, and tender bump below the knee • Pain with activity, especially straightening the leg against force (stair climbing, jumping, deep knee bends, or weight-lifting) or following an extended period of vigorous exercise in an adolescent. In more severe cases, pain occurs during less vigorous activity. Causes Osgood-Schlatter disease results from stress or injury to the tibial tubercle growth plate (which is still developing during adolescence), causing a flare-up. Repeated stress or injury interferes with development, causing inflammation. Risk Increases With • Overzealous conditioning routines, such as running, jumping, or jogging • Being overweight • Boys between 11 and 18 • Rapid skeletal growth • Poor physical conditioning (strength and flexibility) Preventive Measures • Lose weight or maintain ideal body weight.

The innominate tubercle of the femur: application to anterior surgical approaches to the hip Abstract Introduction. There has recently been an increase in popularity of the direct anterior approach (DAA) hip arthroplasty, due to the muscle sparing nature of its interneural intervals, with the innominate tubercle being used as a lateral reference point for the femoral neck osteotomy. However, there is very little information in the literature on this rather enigmatic structure, with no evidence as to whether it is a consistent and reliable marker, or if it varies significantly in the population. Materials and Methods. In this study, data were gathered from 79 pairs of adult, post-medieval skeletal femora to investigate the effects of sex, age, femoral side, femoral length, femoral neck length, and femoral neck-shaft angle on the width, length, and height of the innominate tubercle.

  • Patella Tibia Patella Tendon Tibial Tubercle Screw
    601 West Fifth Avenue, Suite 400 Spokane, WA 99204 Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy Overview This procedure, also called bone realignment, is designed to improve the movement of the patella (the kneecap) to correct patellar tracking disorder. The procedure usually requires hospitalization and general anesthesia. Incision Made After anesthesia is administered, the surgeon makes a four- to six-inch incision over the tibial tubercle. Patella Tubercle Detached The surgeon uses a bone chisel and/or a surgical saw to partially or completely detach the tibial Patella tubercle from the tibia. The patellar tendon, which tendon connects the patella to the tibia, remains connected to the tubercle. Tibia Tubercle Realigned Tibial The tibial tubercle is realigned with the patella in a tubercle position that allows for proper movement when the knee bends. Once in place, the bone is reattached to the tibia with a metal plate, wires or screws. The attachment parts are permanent unless they cause pain. If they do, they can be removed after the bone has healed in its new position. Patella Adjusted In some cases, attachments on either side of the patella may be loosened or tightened to ensure Medial retinaculum proper alignment of the patella. This procedure is may be tightened called lateral release and medial imbrication. (imbrication). End of Procedure The incision is closed with sutures or staples, and a cast or knee immobilizer is placed around the knee to restrict movement. The knee is iced and elevated. The sutures or staples are removed after two to three weeks. The knee will be swollen and Tibial crutches may be necessary for four to six weeks, tubercle with physical therapy to follow.

  • Prevalence of Accessory Bones of the Foot in Turkish Patients
    Original Investigation 147 Prevalence of Accessory Bones of the Foot in Turkish Patients Esat Uygur1, Birol Aktaş2, Tayyar Taylan Öz2, Samet Erinç2, Murat Koç3 1Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Emsey Hospital, İstanbul, Turkey 2Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, İstanbul Medeniyet University Göztepe Training and Research Hospital, İstanbul, Turkey 3Department of Radiology, Gazi University School of Medicine, Ankara, Turkey ABSTRACT Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the prevalence and distribution of accessory bones of the foot by age and gender in a Turkish patient group. Methods: Dorsoplantar and lateral foot radiographs acquired from the data related to outpatient clinics patients in 2014 were retrospectively examined for the presence of accessory bones. The computed radiography images were evaluated via a picture archiving and communication system. A total of 8204 radiographs were assessed and 6779 radiographs were found to be eligible for inclusion in the study. Results: 47.4% of the radiographs were from males and 52.5% females. The prevalence of accessory bones in the whole study group was found to be 18.1%. Gender analysis showed that 17.5% of the female radiographs and 16.4% of the male radiographs had accessory bones. Among all the accessory bones found in the study group, os tibiale externum was found to be the most common accessory bone (32.1%). Conclusion: In the present study, no significant difference was detected in terms of gender. Os tibiale externum was found to be the most common accessory bone of the foot. Os peroneum and os trigonum were found to be the second and third most common, respectively.
