INFERIOR PORTAL FOR HIP ARTHROSCOPY: A PILOT STUDY PART 1. Background and Hypothesis Arkhipov S.V., Independent Researcher, Joensuu, Finland Abstract: The article presents, theoretically and graphically substantiates the technique of a new arthroscopic approach to the central compartment of the hip joint. It is proposed to introduce the optical system of the arthroscope from below through the acetabular notch without traction. Similar approaches were used for puncture, arthroscopy, arthrography, and arthrotomy of the hip joint. Diagnostics using the described lower portal will exclude complications caused by distraction of the leg and compression of the perineal support during surgery. CONTENTS PART 1.

Saying of Akiva ben Joseph extracted from the book Mekilta de-Rabbi Yishmael (ca. 200). Tractate was written in Israel, and interprets about a quarter of the chapters in Exodus. The rabbi mentions the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) of the animal. See our commentary at the link: 50-135Akiva ben Joseph [Rus]. Quote [Heb] Tractate Kaspa. 5:19 (original source: sefaria.org ) Translation Quote [Eng] Tractate Kaspa. 5:19 R. Akiva says: It need not be written (that eating meat and milk is forbidden), for it follows a fortiori, viz.: If the thigh sinew (gid hanasheh), which is not forbidden to be cooked, is forbidden to be eaten, then meat and milk, which is forbidden to be cooked, how much more so should it be forbidden to be eaten!
