1610RiolanJ

Fragments from the book Riolan J. Ioannis Riolani ambiani medici parisiensis, viri clarissimi opera omnia… (1610). The author discusses the location, function and attachment of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The following synonyms are mentioned for LCF: terete & validissimo ligamento, neruus and ischion. The term «ischion» for LCF was also used by Alessandro Benedetti (1527BenedettiA). Probably, this synonym in Greek «Ισχίου» was first used for LCF by Rufus of Ephesus (1879DarenbergCV_RuelleCE; 2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV). His contemporary, Julius Pollux, uses a similar term (1706PolluxJ). In turn, this fragment, telling about LCF, was quoted by Giovanni Filippo Ingrassia (1603IngrassiaeIP).

ANATOMY

Of the Ilium, Ischium, and Pubis. Chapter XLIV.

… From these three parts is formed the large acetabulum, which is called la boétte [the chamber / cavity]. Into it is inserted the head of the femur, connected by a round and very strong ligament. The edges of this cavity are sharp and rough on the outside, where a very strong ligament begins, which surrounds the whole joint (which Caelius Aurelianus calls a "vertebra"). …

Of the femur. Chapter XLV.

… First of all, it should be noted that the head is round and articulates with the hip joint, which Hippocrates in his book "On the Nature of Bones" calls the epiphysis. From it comes the nerve that connects and strengthens the femur in the acetabulum. ...

1882ReevesHA

Fragments from the book Reeves HA. Human Morphology: A Treatise on Practical and Applied Anatomy. Vol. 1. (1882). The author describes the anatomy of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) and its role. Quote pp. 451 - 452 By arrangement with the dissector of the abdomen, who will be interested in the observation, the student should carefully trephine or chisel out a small piece from the roof of the acetabulum in order to observe what has already been stated with regard to the capsule, and also to note how the ligamentum teres is affected with regard to its tension or laxity in the various movements of the joint. He may also try to inject into the joint some warm tallow so as to note if there be any hernial protrusions or projections of the synovial membrane between the layers of the capsule, or whether the synovial membrane of the joint communicates with any of the neighbouring bursæ, more especially with the psoas bursa.
