Therefore, the purpose of the present research was to study its morphology to improve our understanding of its structure and potential variation. Methods: Ten adult cadavers (four males and six females) underwent dissection of the left and right hip joints to observe the morphology and location of the zona orbicularis. A digital caliper was used to measure the length and width of the zona orbic- ularis. Results: We found a zona orbicularis on all sides and that when present anteriorly, many of the inferior fibers of the zona orbic- ularis were confluent with the fibers of the iliofemoral ligament. The mean length for right sides was 35.95 mm and the mean length for left sides was 43.93 mm. The mean width for right sides was 3.74 mm and the mean width for left sides was 4.4 mm.

  • Femur Pelvis HIP JOINT Femoral Head in Acetabulum Acetabular
    Anatomy of the Hip Joint Overview The hip joint is one of the largest weight-bearing HIP JOINT joints in the body. This ball-and-socket joint allows the leg to move and rotate while keeping the body Femoral head in stable and balanced. Let's take a closer look at the acetabulum main parts of the hip joint's anatomy. Pelvis Bones Two bones meet at the hip joint, the femur and the pelvis. The femur, commonly called the "thighbone," is the longest and heaviest bone of the body. At the top of the femur, positioned on the femoral neck, is the femoral head. This is the "ball" of the hip joint. The other part of the joint – the Femur "socket" – is found in the pelvis. The pelvis is a bone made of three sections: the ilium, the ischium and the pubis. The socket is located where these three sections fuse. The proper name of the socket is the "acetabulum." The head of the femur fits tightly into this cup-shaped cavity. Articular Cartilage The femoral head and the acetabulum are covered Acetabular with a layer of articular cartilage. This tough, smooth tissue protects the bones. It allows them to labrum glide smoothly against each other as the ball moves in the socket. Soft Tissues Several soft tissue structures work together to hold the femoral head securely in place. The acetabulum is surrounded by a ring of cartilage called the "acetabular labrum." This deepens the socket and helps keep the ball from slipping out of alignment. It also acts as a shock absorber.

  • The Ligament Anatomy of the Deltoid Complex of the Ankle: a Qualitative and Quantitative Anatomical Study
    e62(1) COPYRIGHT Ó 2014 BY THE JOURNAL OF BONE AND JOINT SURGERY,INCORPORATED The Ligament Anatomy of the Deltoid Complex of the Ankle: A Qualitative and Quantitative Anatomical Study Kevin J. Campbell, BS, Max P. Michalski, MSc, Katharine J. Wilson, MSc, Mary T. Goldsmith, MS, Coen A. Wijdicks, PhD, Robert F. LaPrade, PhD, MD, and Thomas O. Clanton, MD Investigation performed at the Department of Biomedical Engineering, Steadman Philippon Research Institute, and the Steadman Clinic, Vail, Colorado Background: The deltoid ligament has both superficial and deep layers and consists of up to six ligamentous bands. The prevalence of the individual bands is variable, and no consensus as to which bands are constant or variable exists. Although other studies have looked at the variance in the deltoid anatomy, none have quantified the distance to relevant osseous landmarks. Methods: The deltoid ligaments from fourteen non-paired, fresh-frozen cadaveric specimens were isolated and the ligamentous bands were identified. The lengths, footprint areas, orientations, and distances from relevant osseous landmarks were measured with a three-dimensional coordinate measurement device. Results: In all specimens, the tibionavicular, tibiospring, and deep posterior tibiotalar ligaments were identified. Three additional bands were variable in our specimen cohort: the tibiocalcaneal, superficial posterior tibiotalar, and deep anterior tibiotalar ligaments. The deep posterior tibiotalar ligament was the largest band of the deltoid ligament. The origins from the distal center of the intercollicular groove were 16.1 mm (95% confidence interval, 14.7 to 17.5 mm) for the tibionavicular ligament, 13.1 mm (95% confidence interval, 11.1 to 15.1 mm) for the tibiospring ligament, and 7.6 mm (95% confidence interval, 6.7 to 8.5 mm) for the deep posterior tibiotalar ligament.

Methods This study examined 100 legs from 54 Japanese cadavers. The LTCL was classified into three types: Type I, the LTCL branches from the calcaneofibular ligament (CFL); Type II, the LTCL is independent of the CFL and runs parallel to the calcaneus; and Type III, the LTCL is absent. The morphological features measured were fiber bundle length, fiber bundle width, and fiber bundle thickness. Results The LTCL was classified as Type I in 18 feet (18%), Type II in 24 feet (24%), and Type III in 58 feet (58%). All LTCLs were associated with the anterior talofibular ligament at the talus. There was no significant difference in morphologi- cal characteristics by Type for each ligament. Conclusions The LTCL was similar to the CFL in terms of fiber bundle width and fiber bundle thickness.

  • The Attachment Sites and Attachment Areas of Deltoid Ligament Related to Clinical Implications: a Cadaveric Study
    Int. J. Morphol., 38(4):1106-1111, 2020. The Attachment Sites and Attachment Areas of Deltoid Ligament Related to Clinical Implications: A Cadaveric Study Los Sitios y las Áreas de Inserción del Ligamento Deltoideo Relacionadas con las Implicaciones Clínicas: Un Estudio Cadavérico Chanatporn Inthasan1; Yasuhito Tanaka2; Tanawat Vaseenon3 & Pasuk Mahakkanukrauh4,5 INTHASAN, C.; TANAKA, Y.; VASEENON, T. & MAHAKKANUKRAUH, P. The attachment sites and attachment areas of deltoid ligament related to clinical implications: a cadaveric study. Int. J. Morphol 38(4):1106-1111, 2020. SUMMARY: Currently, the treatment for patients with deltoid ligament injuries who require surgical treatment are anatomical repair and reconstruction. The clinicians should understand the exact knowledge of attachment areas of individual bands of deltoid ligament for a successful treatment. We studied 46 ankles of fresh frozen cadavers. The individual bands of deltoid ligament were divided to small fibers. Afterwards, each small fiber of each band was cut and marked with acrylic color on the origin and insertion followed by photo taking. Lastly, the photos of individual origin and insertion were used to calculate the attachment areas. We found six bands of deltoid ligament in all ankles except tibionavicular ligament. Moreover, we discovered deep to tibiocalcaneal and posterior to sustentaculum tali ligaments in 3 cases. Regarding the attachment area, the deep posterior tibiotalar ligament had the largest proximal and distal attachment areas which were 87.36±23.15 mm2 and 88.88±24.24 mm2, respectively. The anterior tibiotalar ligament had the least proximal and distal attachment areas which were 23.12±8.25 mm2 and 33.16±14.63 mm2, respectively.
