Abstract:
Limited knowledge of the anatomy and biomechanics of the posterolateral corner (PLC) of the knee, coupled with poor patient outcomes with non-operative management, resulted in the PLC often being labelled as the ‘dark side’ of the knee. In the last two decades, extensive research has resulted in a better understanding of the anatomy and function of the PLC, and has led to the development of anatomic reconstructions that have resulted in improved patient outcomes. Despite considerable attention in the clinical orthopaedic literature (nearly 400 articles published in the last decade), a standard

Recognition of the normal magnetic resonance (MR) imaging appearances of the capsular ligaments of the knee is of great importance. These ligaments contribute to stability of the knee joint and are frequently injured.

Abstract The Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a unique structure and one of the most important ligaments for knee stability, serving as primary restriction for the anterior tibial translation on the femur and secondary restriction to the knee external and internal rotation that is not sustaining weight.

Background: The capsulo-osseous layer (COL), short lateral ligament, mid–third lateral capsular ligament, lateral capsular ligament, and anterolateral ligament (ALL) are terms that have been used interchangeably to describe what is probably the same structure.

Abstract:
Ideal aesthetic proportions of the lower limb call for a tapering thigh leading obliquely inward toward the knee. A very small medial and anterior convexity at the knee forms the transition to lower leg. Although frequently ignored in anatomy texts, significant fat deposits are often present in the lower thigh above and medial to the knee, especially in females. Current fashion, calling for skirts with hemlines above the knee, heightens concern among wearers about the appearance of the knees. Fat in this area is ideally suited to removal by lipo-suction surgery. This article will review the an

Abstract:
The knee is a complex joint, prone to instability and damage, meaning a complicated architecture of soft tissues is necessary to ensure any stability of the joint. These structures are innervated, and play an important role in both proprioception, the sensing of a body’s own limb positions, and nociception, the sensing of painful stimuli. The purpose of this project has been to develop a computational model that can replicate the behaviour of the mechanical sensing nerve endings in the knee joint.

Neuropeptides, such as substance P (SP) and bombesin/gastrin-releasing peptide (BN/GRP), and neurotrophins are involved in neuro-immunomodulatory processes and have marked trophic, growth-promoting and inflammation-modulating properties. The impact of these modulators in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is, however, unclear. An involvement of the innervation, including the peptidergic innervation, is frequently proposed as an important factor for arthritic disease. Many patients with RA, but not all, benefit from treatment with anti-TNF medications. The studies presented here aimed to investigate the
