Know Your KNEE

1. Know Your KNEE Emily Delello Salene Sheridan

2. The knee joint is 3 joints in1 • The Tibiofemoral joint is a hinge joint permitting flextion and extension. • The Femoralpatellar joint is a plane joint where the patella glides across the distal end of the femur during knee flextion. • Structurally it is a bicondylar joint allowing some rotation when the knee is partially flexed and when the knee is extending.

9. Rectus Femoris Origin: Anterior Inferior iliac spine Insertion : Tibial Tuberosity Action: Hip flexion, Knee extension Innervation: Femoral Nerve Vascular supply: Lateral circumflex artery

10. Lateral Circumflex Femoral Artery

12. Vastusintermedialis Origin: Anterior femur Insertion: Tibial tuberosity via patellar tendon Action: Knee extension Innervation: Femoral nerve Vascular supply: Lateral circumflex femoral artery

13. Vastuslateralis Origin: Lateral aspera Insertion: Tibial tuberosity via patellar tendon Action: Knee extension Innervation: Femoral nerve Vascular supply: Lateral circumflex femoral artery

14. VastusMedialis Origin: Linea aspera Insertion: Tibial tuberosity via patellar tendon Action: Knee extension Innervation: Femoral nerve Vascular supply: Circumflex femoral artery

15. VastusLateralis VastusMedialis

16. Bicep Femoris Origin: Long head of the Ischial tuberosity. Short head the lateral lip of lineaaspera Insertion: Fibular head Action: Long head, extends hip and flexes knee. Short head, flexes knee Innervation: Long head, sciatic nerve. Short head, common peroneal nerve Vascular supply: Inferior gluteal artery

21. Semimembranous Origin: Ischial Tuberosity Insertion: Posterior surface of medial condyle of tibia Action: Extend hip and flex knee Innervation: Sciatic nerve Vascular supply: Inferior gluteal artery

23. Semimembranosus Semitendinosus

24. Semitendoninosus Origin: Ischial tuberosity Insertion: Anteromedial surface of Proximal tibia Action: Extend hip and flex knee Innervation: Sciatic nerve Vascular supply: Deep femoral

28. Popliteus Origin: Lateral condyle of femur Insertion: Posteriorly on medial condyle of tibia Action: Initiates knee flexion Innervation: Tibial nerve Vascular Supply: Popliteal artery

29. gastrocnemius Origin: Medial and lateral condyles of femur Insertion: Posterior calcaneus Action: Knee flextion, ankle plantar flextion Innervation: Tibial nerve Vascular supply: Popliteal artery

32. Lateral Head Medial Head of Gastrocnemius

33. Ligaments A ligament is a tough band of fibrous tissue that connects bone to bone or bone to cartilage and supports and strengthens joints.

42. Bursae-A bursa (plural bursae) is a small fluid-filled sac lined by synovial membrane with an inner capillary layer of viscous fluid (similar in consistency to that of a raw egg white). It provides a cushion between bones and tendons and/or muscles around a joint. This helps to reduce friction between the bones and allows free movement. Bursae are filled with synovial fluid and are found around most major joints of the body.
