On the outside or fibula side of the ankle are two
ligaments. A
ligament by definition maintains its length throughout the ankle's range of motion.
In dogs, various techniques are described to repair collateral
ligaments. Bone tunnels may be used, but nonabsorbable suture material with bone screws as anchors are commonly employed.
Computed tomography (CT) revealed edematous inflammation of the falciform
ligament, which was confirmed by diagnostic laparoscopy (Figure 1).
Triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) is composed of multiple distinct anatomic structures including the triangular fibrocartilage (TFC, the articular disk), meniscal homolog (MH), dorsal and volar distal radioulnar
ligaments, the extensor carpi ulnaris tendon (ECU), ulnar collateral
ligament (UCL), ulnotriquetral (UT)
ligament, and the ulnolunate (UL)
ligament.[sup][1],[2] The TFCC is the main stabilizer of the ulnar-sided wrist and the distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ).
This case study explores the perioperative story of a 27-year-old man who came to Boulcott Hospital in Wellington to have his knee
ligaments reconstructed.
Posterolateral corner is stabilised by the arcuate
ligament complex which consists of lateral collateral
ligament; biceps femoris tendon; popliteus muscle and tendon; popliteal meniscal and popliteal fibular
ligaments; arcuate
ligament, lateral gastrocnemius muscle and fabellofibular
ligaments.
The surgical anatomy of the joint is very significant because of patellar
ligaments involved in femoro-patellar articulation (Read, 1999).
The main
ligaments of the knee are the anterior and posterior cruciate
ligaments and the medial collateral and lateral collateral
ligaments.
That something is, in large part, the cranial cruciate
ligament. As the name implies, the cruciate
ligaments --both caudal (toward the tail) and cranial (toward the head)--form an "X" in the knee joint, holding the femur to the tibia.
