Fragment of the article Vialle R, Pannier S, Odent T, Schmit P, Pauthier F, Glorion C. Imaging of traumatic dislocation of the hip in childhood (2004). The article discusses the examination technique for dislocation of the femur and describes the radiographic symptom of infringement of the damaged ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). For our commentary see the link: 2004VialleR_GlorionC [Rus].

Abstract

... A total of 42 patients were studied. Their mean age was 10 years 3 months. ... In 11 patients the postreduction radiograph and CT showed joint space asymmetry secondary to labral entrapment. Only two patients developed epiphyseal necrosis. ... Analysis of plain radiographs is essential before and after reduction of the joint, and it is important to perform postreduction CT in every patient whose joint space remains widened. A radionuclide bone scan should be performed between the second and third weeks after injury to assess epiphyseal vascularity. ...

Quote

There was incarceration of the acetabular limbus in nine patients and avulsion of the round ligament in two patients, which explained the asymmetry of the articular space.

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.
