ABOUT THE AUTHOR

 

The blog is managed and administered by Sergey Vasilyevich Arkhipov, a candidate of medical sciences, general surgeon, and orthopedic traumatologist (orthopedic surgeon) of the highest qualification, as well as a medical expert.

The author graduated from the State Medical Institute in 1992 (Smolensk, Russia) and defended his dissertation at the Russian University of Friendship of Peoples (Moscow). He studied at the Central Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics (Moscow) and the Russian Research Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics (St. Petersburg). He also had internships at the Hannover Medical School (Medizinischen Hochschule Hannover).

Sergey Arkhipov has experience working in the orthopedic department of a regional clinical hospital, trauma departments of major city medical institutions, a regional burn center, a trauma center, a surgical department of a district hospital, state polyclinics, and private medical clinics. He has been involved in research activities, serving as a practicing physician, department head, deputy chief physician for clinical-expert work, consultant in the field of traumatology and orthopedics, medical expert, and senior researcher at the "Biomechanics and Mechatronics" laboratory (N.I. Pirogov Russian National Research Medical University). Sergey Arkhipov worked in the laboratory of "Clinical Physiology and Biomechanics" at the Federal State Budgetary Institution National Medical Research Center named after N.N. Priorov (Central Institute of Traumatology and Orthopedics). Currently, he is an independent scientist.

He has been awarded the Honorary Certificate of the Ministry of Health of the Russian Federation, the Gratitude of the Mayor of Moscow, certificates of Heads of Administrations, and chief physicians of medical institutions. Sergey Arkhipov was the winner of the regional television contest "Person of the Year – 2004" in the category of "Discovery" and a laureate of the contest "Man – Event – Time." in 2001.

The author created a series of original mechanical models of the human hip joint, designed a quadripedipulatory zoomorphic walking platform, and a prototype of an anthropomorphic walking mechanism. He proposed a family of artificial joints with analogs of ligaments. Sergey Arkhipov refined the concepts of the biomechanics of the hip joint in vertical poses and during walking. He established the role of the ligament of the head of femur, ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), in the pathogenesis of coxarthrosis and formulated a previously unknown general biological regularity – "The Law of Bioinduction". The author suggested a mathematical apparatus for calculating the dynamics of biological processes in living systems.

Sergey Arkhipov the author of six monographs, a dissertation for a candidate of medical sciences, three patents, and eight positive decisions on patent issuance, sixty articles and conference abstracts, forty patent applications. For more accurate positioning in the scientific community, he used the pseudonym S.V. Arkhipov-Baltiysky in some publications.

Scientific interests of the author include: the significance of the LCF for the musculoskeletal system; diagnosis, and treatment of diseases of the hip joint; morphomechanics; biomechanics of human and animal locomotion; modeling of joint function; development of artificial joints, and methods of hip ligament repair; biomorphic robotics.

Set of Classifications

  General Classification of LCF Pathology Version : 20240420 Annotation Analysis of literature data and our own morphological observations allowed us to propose a General Classification of LCF Pathology. Introduction In Russia, the initial attempts to classify pathology of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) were made by morphologists. L.I. Gaevskaya distinguished three types of LCF: 1) long and thick (length 41–51 mm, thickness 5 mm), 2) short and thin (length 10–20 mm, thickness 1 mm), 3) long and of small thickness (length 43–45 mm, with a thickness of 3 mm, and length 28–30 mm with a thickness of 4–5 mm) (1954 ГаевскаяЛИ ). V.V. Kovanov, A.A. Travin identified three varieties of histological structure of LCF: 1) with a predominance of loose connective tissue; 2) with a predominance of dense connective tissue; 3) with a uniform distribution of loose and dense connective tissue ( 1963 КовановВВ _ ТравинАА ). The development of arthroscopic surgery has made it possible to i...

1835CooperAP

  Fragments of the book Cooper AP. Lectures on the Principles and Practice of Surgery (1835) dedicated to ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The author discusses LCF injury during hip dislocation and notes the important role of its blood vessels in supplying the femoral head.   Quote p. 577 DISLOCATIONS OF THE HIP JOINT … It generally happens when the thighs are widely separated from each other, that the ligamentum teres and capsular ligament are torn through, and the head of the bone is situated on the obturator externus muscle at the inner and back part of the thigh. Quote pp. 584-585 ON DISLOCATIONS OF THE THIGH BONE … But the third and principal reason is, the almost entire absence of ossific union in the head of the bone when detached from its cervix. The principal supply of blood to the head of the bone being derived from the ligamentum teres, which has only a few minute vessels ramifying from it on the bone, the natural supply of blood for the neck and head ...

1730CheseldenW

  Fragments from the book Cheselden W. The Anatomy of the Human Body (1730). The author draws attention to the role of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) in counteracting hip dislocation and maintaining the femoral head in the joint. The work notes that the LCF is “powerful” and “short” - “about two inches” i.e. approximately 5 cm! This error will be corrected  in a subsequent treatise  ( 1733CheseldenW ) .   Quote pp. 43 - 44 Chap. VII. Of the Ligaments At the upper part of the articulation of the Os Femoris and Os Innominatum, is a strong ligament of great consequence; it contributing very much to preserve that joint from being luxated by the weight of the body. And from the lower edge of the Acetabulum of the Os Innominatum, runs a ligament to the middle of the head of the Os Femoris, about two inches long (which the Motion in this joint requires) called Teres, or Rotundum, whose use is to prevent the Os Femoris from being luxated upwards, but down wards it will le...
