1697MunnicksJ

 

Fragment from the book Munnicks J. De re anatomica liber. (1697). The author describes the attachment and shape of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF).

Quote p. 210.

LXV.

Superius rotundum, globosumque Caput, oblongæ & robustæ Cervici, quæ universam corporis molem sustinere debet, imponitur; quod cartilagine obductum intra cavitatem, ossis ilium, ischii, & pubis concursu productam, quæ Acetabulum alias dicitur, reconditur: in qua detinetur robustis ligamentis; lato uno, & membranoso, quod à circumferentia acetabuli exortum, totum articulum circumdat; tum rotundo altero, & tereti, quod ab ipsa cavitate productum, statim in caput susceptum demittitur.

Translation

[Eng]

LXV.

The head, round and globular at the top, is placed on an elongated and strong neck, which must support the whole weight of the body; covered with cartilage, it is placed in a cavity formed by the fusion of the ilium, ischium and pubis, which is otherwise called the acetabulum: in this cavity it is held by strong ligaments; one broad and membranous, which begins around the acetabulum and surrounds the whole joint; and the other round and rounded, which comes directly from the cavity itself and is directed immediately to the head, to which it is attached.
