1541PolluxJ

Fragment from the book Pollux J. Onomasticum translated by R. Gwalther (1541). In Greek the author calls ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) «ἰσχίον», and the translator designates the concept of «ligament/sinew» with the term «neruus». The synonym «ἰσχίον» was used by Rufus of Ephesus (2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV). The fragment of the Onomasticum dealing with the LCF was quoted by Giovanni Filippo Ingrassia (1603IngrassiaeIP). See our commentary at the link: 1541PolluxJ [Rus], and Greek text 180-238PolluxJ.

Liber secundus.

LVIII. De musculis lumborum, coxis, clunibus, & duae circum sunt.

Neruus etiam coxam femori colligans, ἰσχίον dicitur. eodemque nomine, & ipse articulus nominatur. Os vero volubile coxendici conjunctum, femoris caput appellatur.

Quote.

Book II.

58. On the muscles of the loins, thighs, buttocks, and the two that surround them.

The sinew (neruus) that connects the pelvis to the thigh is also called the sciatic (ἰσχίον), and the joint itself is also named. But the rotating bone connected to the pelvis is called the head of the femur.

ILIOTIBIAL TRACT & LCF

ILIOTIBIAL TRACT & LCF There is an opinion that the iliotibial tract, like the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), provides pressing of the acetabulum to the lower surface of the femoral head. I think that this is not true. The tract is located above and lateral to the center of rotation of the hip joint. Its force vector, like the force vector of the abductor group of muscles, presses the acetabulum to the upper part of the femoral head, which increases the load on it. The ligamentum capitis femoris acts in the opposite direction.

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...

1836WeberW_WeberE

We present fragments from the book that laid the foundation of biomechanics of the hip joint considering the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The authors experimentally proved that this structure is situated in the frontal plane when the body is in a vertical position. Analysis of observations showed that when standing on one leg, the LCF and the anterior portion of the iliofemoral ligament (pars descendens lig. iliofemoralis) are stretched and hold the pelvis. These ligaments counteract the weight of the body along with the head of the femur on the same side. The insight of the Weber brothers was later developed in the works of H. von Meyer (1856) , W. Turner (1857) , and W. Savory(1874) . Weber W, Weber E. Mechanik der menschlichen Gehwerkzeuge: eine anatomisch-physiologische Untersuchung. Gottingen: Dietrichsche Buchhandlung, 1836.
