Fragments from the book Paaw P. Primitiae anatomicae. De humani corporis ossibus (1615). The author describes the attachment areas of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), notes its role in blood supply, innervation, pathogenesis of inflammation and pain. Rare original synonyms are used: peculiar ligamentum, purum ligamentum, teres, sanguinolentonerveum ligamentum.

Quote p. 165.

Cap. III.

Tum & peculiar ligamentum sanguino lentum, quod ex centro capitis ossis femoris in ipsius acetabuli centrum infigitur, imò ei velut adnascitur. Hoc purum ligamentum minimè est, sed nerveæ naturæ, quod que sæpe inflammatum æstusensili significant egri. Iidem dolores pertinaces, ob insignem acetabuli profunditatem , ligamentorum que huic loco circumpositorum crassitiem; impedientium quominus aut discuti materia possit, aut topicorum efficacia ipsam attingere.

Cap. IV.

Translation

[Eng]

Chapter III

There is also a special ligament that supplies blood, which begins in the center of the head of the femur and is attached to the center of the acetabulum, even as if it were fused to it. Although this is a true ligament, it is of a nervous nature, which often causes inflammation and painful sensations. The same persistent pains are caused by the considerable depth of the acetabulum and the thickness of the ligaments surrounding it, which prevent both the spread of [used] drugs and the achievement of the effect of local remedies.

Chapter IV

From the center of the heads comes a round, blood-nerve ligament, which is attached to the center of the acetabulum of the hip joint, which is discussed during the examination of this bone; as well as a wide and strong ligament surrounding this joint to ensure its safety.

1922LeeserI

  A fragment of the Book of Genesis tells about the journey of the family of Patriarch Jacob from Charan to Canaan (Gen. 31:1 – 33:20). The translation into English from of the Masoretic Hebrew text of the Torah was done by Isaac Leeser ( 1922 LeeserI ). «Most scholars agree that the texts now found in Genesis began to be written down sometime after the establishment of the monarchy in Israel in the tenth century BCE» (1992SuggsMJ_MuellerJR). A selected passage from an ancient work mentions for the first time in history the injury of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) of a person is mentioned (Gen. 32:26,33). In the original Hebrew source this anatomical element is referred to as «גיד» (gheed, gid)  ( Bereshit 32:33 ;  1923, 2004PreussJ;  2019ArkhipovSV_SkvortsovDV ;  2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV ).  This term was recorded in writing long before Hippocrates of Kos (V-IV cent. BCE) who used the concept «νεῦρον» to designate LCF (1844LittréÉ). It is not known...

2013ClaytonM PhiloR

  Fragment from the book Clayton M, Philo R. Leonardo da Vinci: The mechanics of man (2013). The authors describe a drawing by Leonardo da Vinci depicting the insertion site of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The drawing was created in the winter of 1510-1511 in Milan while studying the anatomy of the human body ( 1510Leonardo_da Vinci ). Quote p. 90 The slightly enlarged upper head of the fibula and the blunted appearance of the styloid processes at the end of the tibia and fibula may have resulted from using freshly prepared bones, with portions of ligaments and cartilage remaining, rather than dried bones. A small piece of ligament seems to be visible on the head of the femur in the drawings below, at upper right and at upper center, and the patella drawn in isolation at upper left appears to have some of the patellar ligament remaining on its lower edge.
