Femur (Oberschenkel). Das sehr starke Femur liegt mit einem fast runden Kopfe in der Gelenkpfanne, woselbst es durch ein festes Ligamentum teres befestigt ist. Der Hals ist kurz. Der dem Trochanter major entsprechende Rollhügel ist sehr gross , nach vorn gerichtet ; in der Mitte seiner Aussenfläche befindet sich , dort wo die Sehnen der proximalen Beckenmuskeln inseriren , eine rauhe Stelle. Sein nach hinten gerichteter Theil liegt mit dem benachbarten Theile des Collum dem Antitrochanter an.

Quote, pp. 3-4

Femur (thigh). The very strong femur, with its almost round head, lies in the glenoid cavity, where it is attached by a strong ligamentum teres. The neck is short. The greater trochanter, is very large and directed anteriorly; in the middle of its outer surface, where the tendons of the proximal pelvic muscles insert, there is a rough spot. Its posteriorly directed part, together with the adjacent part of the neck, lies against the antitrochanter.

BIOMECHANICS OF THE HIP JOINT WITHOUT LCF

  Biomechanics of the hip joint without LCF Do you remember the comparison of the ligamentum teres with the spring element of a cart? ( 1874SavoryWS ). An analogy could arise after reading the book Bell J. The Principles of Surgery (1801) . Most orthopedists still think so.

Human Children. Retelling of Chapter 18

  Short retelling of chapter 18 of the essay: Arkhipov S.V. Human Children: The Origins of Biblical Legends from a Physician's Perspective. Joensuu: Author's Edition, 2025. [In Russian]  Chapter 18. THE MINISTRY OF JESUS   The accounts of Jesus’ ministry, as recorded by the Gospel writers, offer varying timelines marked by the Jewish Passover. Matthew and Mark mention one Passover, Luke references two, and John notes three instances of the festival’s approach. Based on these milestones, Jesus’ ministry—his bearing of the “cross”—likely spanned one to three years across Galilee (Upper Galilee, 32°59'10"N, 35°20'13"E; Lower Galilee, 32°46'59"N, 35°19'48"E) and Judea (31°35'N, 35°E). Isaac Newton (1642–1727) calculated Jesus’ death as occurring between 33 and 34 CE, with modern scholars pinpointing April 3, 33 CE, as the date of his crucifixion, marking the end of the Galilean Physician’s earthly journey. Thus, the period from 29 to 33 CE ...

How TeresI Helps Us

  Teresi – a small ligament of the hip joint, also known as the round ligament (lat. ligamentum teres). It supports the body and thus reduces the load on the hip joint.
