3. The temporomandibular joint is formed by the mandibular condyle and the mandibular fossa of the temporal bone. It is supported by ligaments.

5. An articular disc separates the bones within the joint capsule. The movement of this disc may create clicking or popping sounds.

36. Elbow joint

38. The elbow joint is supported by its articular capsule and by multiple strong ligaments: the radial (lateral) collateral ligament, the ulnar (medial) collateral ligament, and the annular ligament.

52. Strong ligaments, a strong joint capsule, and powerful muscles help to stabilize the acetabulofemoral joint

53. The retinacular fibers support the joint capsule and contain arteries that supply most of the blood to the neck and head of the femur The ligament of the head of the femur (ligamentum teres) contains a small artery that supplies some of the blood to the head of the femur.

54. Fracture of the neck of the femur Read about fracture of the femoral neck in the clinical view in the text

55. Tibiofemoral (knee) joint

56. The knee joint is composed of two separate articulations: the tibiofemoral joint and the patellofemoral joint.

57. Patellofemoral joint of left knee of femur

58. The quadriceps femoris tendon inserts onto the patella, which is embedded in this tendon The patellar ligament extends inferiorly from the patella and attaches to the tibial tuberosity

59. The tibiofemoral joint is stabilized by the lateral (fibular) collateral ligament and by the medial (tibial) collateral ligament . The LCL is NOT attached to the meniscus. Right knee, anterior view

60. In varus displacement of the knee (hyperadduction of the lower leg), the distal segment (lower leg) is abnormally deviated medially. This is normally prevented by the lateral (fibular) collateral ligament .

61. The tibiofemoral joint is stabilized by the lateral (fibular) collateral ligament and by the medial (tibial) collateral ligament . Right knee, anterior view

62. In valgus displacement of the knee (hyperabduction of the lower leg), the knee is driven medially while the lower leg is deviated laterally. This is normally prevented by the medial (tibial) collateral ligament.

63. attached The medial collateral ligament is attached to the medial meniscus . This means if the MCL tears the medical meniscus also tears. Right knee, anterior view

64. The medial meniscus and the lateral meniscus are made of fibrocartilage and help stabilize the knee and act as cushions. Note the MCL is attached to the medial meniscus. attached Right knee, anterior view

65. The menisci help to pad and stabilize the knee

66. More deeply the tibiofemoral joint is stabilized by the posterior cruciate ligament and by the anterior cruciate ligament .

67. Note that the posterior cruciate ligament is tight (taut) when the tibiofemoral joint is flexed while the anterior cruciate ligament is tight (taut) when the tibiofemoral joint is extended . Most knee injuries occur when the knee is extended (anterior cruciate ligament is tight) so it is commonly ruptured (ruptured ACL) by hyperextension or lateral displacement when leg is extended. ACL tight PCL tight

68. Humans are bipedal animals. An important aspect in walking and standing is the ability to “lock” the knees . This is possible because at full extension the tibia rotates laterally so as to tighten the ACL and squeeze the meniscus between the tibia and femur. This mechanism permits a person to stand for long periods without using or tiring the muscles of the leg.

69. The tibiofemoral joint (knee) is very vulnerable to injury. Read the clinical view in the text.

70. Valgus deviation of the knee (hyperabduction of lower leg))

71. Valgus stress to the knee (hyperabduction of the lower leg) can rupture the MCL, the medial meniscus, and, if enough displacement occurs, the ACL and the PCL. (medial)

74. An allograft replacement of the ACL uses materials from another person (cadaver)

75. An autograft replacement uses your own tissues, such as the middle portion of the patellar ligament

76. An autograft replacement can also use a portion of your hamstring tendons. They are removed, braided, and used to replace the ACL.

79. There are numerous bursae associated with the knee. Two of them are shown here.

95. Results: The high-top shoes were more effective in reducing the amount and rate of inversion than the low-top shoes

96. Sprains are often accompanied by bleeding and inflammation of the joint capsule (synovitis). Read about ankle sprains and Pott fractures in the clinical view in the text.

97. Intertarsal joints (and tarsometatarsal joints) are planar (gliding) joints Metatarsophalangeal joints are condyloid joints Interphalangeal joints are hinge joints
