Domains, Types and Character of LCF Pathology

 

Version: 20240303

Two major domains of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) pathology, we are distinguished based on primary causes. The «congenital pathology» domain includes structural changes present at birth. Accordingly, the «acquired pathology» domain describes changes in LCF that occur after birth.

DOMAINS OF LCF PATHOLOGY

- Congenital pathology

- Acquired pathology

 Depending on the cause, we distinguish the following types of LCF pathology:

 TYPES OF LCF PATHOLOGY

- Accidental mechanical damage

- Iatrogenic mechanical damage

- Genetically determined pathology

- Infectious diseases

- Malignant neoplasms

- Benign neoplasms

- Endocrine diseases

- Neuromuscular diseases

- Chemical damage

- Local purulent processes

- Rheumatic diseases

- Metabolic diseases

- Radiation damage

- Exposure to elevated temperature

- Exposure to low temperature

- Impact of increased partial pressure of gases

- Deformations of the musculoskeletal system

- Dysfunction of the musculoskeletal system

- Changes in the properties of bone tissue

- Changes in the properties of dense regular connective tissue

- Involutive changes and disorders

- Idiopathic pathology  

CHARACTER OF LCF PATHOLOGY

1. Isolated
2. Multiple
3. Combined

In isolated pathology, changes in a single anatomical structure are observed, for example, in one portion or bundle of stroma. By multiple, we understand the pathology of two or more anatomical structures, such as portions. Combined pathology implies the involvement of different anatomical structures, for example, blood vessels and stroma (sub-synovial tear).
