Quote p. 367

La tête du fémur est tournée en haut, en dedans et un peu en avant; de manière que la plus grande partie de sa convexité est en haut et la plus petite en bas. Cette convexité se prolonge un peu plus en avant qu’en arrière, et forme plus de la moitié d’une sphère. Sa surface est lisse, excepté à la partie moyenne inférieure où se trouve un enfoncement dans lequel s’attache le ligament interne de l’articulation. La tête du fémur est reçue dans la cavité cotyloïde de l’os innominé.


Quote p. 374

La tête du Fémur est recouverte, dans l’état frais, par un cartilage articulaire, dont la circonférence est moins épaisse que la partie moyerine. Ce cartilage est interrompu à la partie moyenne et inférieure, par un enfoncement qui donne attache au ligament interne. La tête du fémur est reçue dans la cavité cotyloïde.


Quote pp. 378-379

Le ligament intérieur a été appelé ligament rond, quoiqu’il n’ait rien moins que la forme ronde. Il s’étend des extrémités de l’échancrure de la cavité cotyloïde, à l’enfoncement de la tête du fémur. Il est aplati et triangulaire. Une de ses faces est interne et supérieure elle est contiguë au paquet celluleux qui remplit la portion raboteuse de la cavité cotyloïde. L’autre est externe et inférieure; elle est contiguë à la tête du femur. La base de ce ligament est attachée aux extrémités de l’éclianicrnre cotyloïdienne, et au bord postérieur du ligament qui convertit cette échancrure en trou: delà, il monte obliquement en arriéré et va s’attacher, par son sommet, à la partie supérieure de l’enfoncement creusé sur la tete du fémur. Ce ligament est compose de deux bandes plates de fibres, dont l’une supérieure, plus petite, naît de l’extrémité supérieure de l’echancrure cotyloïdienne; l’autre, plus grande, naît de son extrémité infériure. Ces deux bandes se rapprochent et se confondent vers la tête du femur: leurs bords voisins sont unis par une lame fibreuse plus mince. Cet appareil fibreux est renfermé dans une espèce de gaîne membraneuse, qui naît de la circonférence de l’enfoncement raboteux de la cavité cotyloïde et du bord postérieur du ligament qui couvre l’échancrure cotyloïdienne. Cette gaîne recouvre le paquet celluleux prétendu synovial, qui remplit l’enfoncement, lui adhère fortement, entoure le ligament auquel elle est intimement unie, et finit enfin à la circonférence de l’enfoncementde la tete du fémur, en se continuant avec le cartilage articulaire. Cette membrane est souvent soulevée, près la tête du femur, par un petit flocon celluleux, semblable à ceux qu’on regarde comme des glandes synoviales. Le ligament interne est propre à empêcher que le fémur ne sorte de la cavité cotyloïde eu haut et en dehors.

Vertebrates

VERTEBRATES According to the molecular clock, a specific method for dating phylogenetic events, vertebrates (Vertebrata) separated from arthropods (Arthropoda) 976±97 Ma (2004HedgesSB_ShoeJL). The latter began to dominate in species diversity with the Cambrian burst of radiation, which occurred 520 Ma (2010EdgecombeGD). This ratio in the fauna of the Earth is still preserved. Approximately 525 Ma, the phylum Chordates separated from the group of bilaterally symmetrical animals (1995ChenJY_ZhouGQ). In turn, the evolution of chordate organisms led to the formation of the first vertebrates at least 500 Ma, from which the jawed mouths 450-400 Ma descended, becoming the ancestors of the placoderms or "armored" fish (Placodermi) (1979 НаумовНП _ КарташевНН ).

1832MeckelJF

  Fragments of the book Meckel JF. Manual of general, descriptive, and pathological anatomy (1832) dedicated to ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The author briefly discusses abnormalities of the LCF and its distal insertion. Quote p. 257 § 308. Among the deviations from the normal state, primitive deviations of the external form are rare, and usually attend anomalies of the other tissues. Among these we arrange, for instance, the absence of the tendons of the abdominal muscles, that of the ligaments of the vertebral column, and that of the dura mater of the brain and spinal marrow, &c., in a congenital fissure of the abdomen, of the vertebral column, and of the skull, and that of the tendons and the muscles of a finger, when the finger itself is wanting. But the fibrous organs are seldom deficient, when the other tissues with which they combine to form a part are present — for instance, the tendon alone of a muscle is rarely absent, or the tunica sclerotica, when the othe...

1836-1840PartridgeR

  «Prof. Partridge in his lectures on anatomy at King's College was accustomed to compare the Ligamentum Teres, in its function, to the leathern straps by which the body of a carriage is suspended on springs » ( 1874SavoryWS ). Perhaps Nikolai Pirogov listened to these lectures ( 1859PirogoffN ).   The analogy that Richard Partridge used could have arisen after reading the monograph Bell J. The Principles of Surgery (1801) . In it, the author depicted a cart and a pelvis resting on the head of one and two femurs. However, there is no mention of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) in the chart descriptions. References Savory WS. On the use of the ligamentum teres of the hip joint.
