25․ Եւ իբրեւ ետես թէ ոչ յաղթէ նմա, բուռն եհար զամոլաջլէ զըստի նորա եւ ընդարմացոյց զամոլաջիլ զըստին Յակոբայ ի կռուելն իւրում ընդ նմա:

32․ Վասն այնորիկ ոչ ուտեն որդիքն Իսրայէլի զամոլաջիլն` զոր ընդարմացոյց, որ է ի վերայ տախտակի զըստին, մինչչեւ ցայսաւր: Զի բուռն եհար զտախտակէ զըստին Յակոբայ, եւ ընդարմացոյց զամոլաջիլ նորա: (original source: shavigh.am).

1614PlatterF

Fragment from the book Platter F. Observationum (1614). The author notes the role of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) in fixing the femur in the acetabulum and the possibility of its lengthening  (synovitis) . Quote pp. 141-142 [Lat] Cruris dextri astrictio & contractio, post coxendicum dolorem. Cùm enim ligamentum illud articulum circumd ás, omnium totius corporis ligamentorum, quae articulos ambiunt, sit amplissimum; fieri potest, ut adeò cedat, ut (sicuti saepe sit) femoris caput, è suo sinu devoluatur, & in membranae illius (quae cùm erassissima sit, prae omnibus totius corporis ligamentis, nunquam vi qualicunque disrumpi potest) amplitudine seu capacitate subsistat, elongato simul & vehementer attracto, tereti illo & crasso, quod caput aliàs in suo sinu retinere solet, ligamento. Quod & ob tensionem illam nimiam, astrictum & induratum, chordae alicuius crasssissimae & firmisimae instar, quae nunquam disrumpi, nunquam ab acetabulo, cuius cartilag...

1833GerdyPN

  P.N. Gerdy, in his experiment, discovered tensioning of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) during thigh adduction. At the same time, it was noted for the first time that the consequence of LCF tension during hip adduction is a downward and lateral displacement of the femoral head. Normally, this mechanism provides unloading of the upper articular surfaces when supporting one leg (see 1874SavoryWS ). The translation from French was done in collaboration with ChatGPT 3.5.   Gerdy PN. Physiologie médicale, didactique et critique. T. 1. Paris: Librairie de Crochard, 1833. [fragment] Quote pp. 551-554   L'inclinaison de la cuisse en dehors, que l'on nomme son abduction, est un mouvement assez étendu, mais qui pourtant ne permet pas à la cuisse de se placer perpendiculairement à sa direction verticale.

  Fragments from the book: Braus H. Angeborene Gelenkveränderungen, bedingt durch künstliche Beeinflussung des Anlagemateriales (1921). The author describes the anatomy, attachment, shape, properties and changes in pathology of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). The text in German. The text in Russian is available at the following link: 1921BrausH . Quote p. 523-524. Eine Besonderheit der Hüftpfanne ist ein Fenster in ihrer Wandung. Der knöcherne Rand, an welchem die Pfannenlippe angeheftet ist, ist nach unten zw breit eingeschnitten, Incisura acetabuli (Abb. 90). Die Pfannenlippo ist trotzdem ein geschlossener Ring, weil die genannte Lücke durch ein Band, Ligamentum transversum acetabuli. überbrückt wird und weil die Pfannenlippe auf dieses Band fortgesetzt ist (Abb. 258). So ist der ventil artige Abschluß des Pfannenrandes gegen den Schenkelkopf gewahrt und trotz dem der Eintritt eines Bandes in den Innenraum des Gelenkes durch das Fenster unterhalb des Bandes möglich.
