[i] Annotation

Fragments from the book: Rauber A. Lehrbuch der Anatomie des Menschen. Erster Band. (1897). The author discusses the anatomy and role of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), suggesting that it stimulates the production of synovial fluid. The text in Russian is available at the following link: 1897RauberA.


Quote pp. 367-368.

b. Hüftgelenk, Articulatio coxae. Fig. 393-396.

Rings um den Rand der Hüftpfanne legt sich ein dicker fibröser Ring, eine Pfannenlippe, Labrum glenoidale, welche die Tiefe der Pfanne zu einer mehr als halbkugeligen Höhlung ergänzt und die Incisura acetabuli überbrückt. Dieser überbrückende Teil heisst Lig. transversum acetabuli. Durch die so entstandene Lücke drängt sich ein Fettpolster in die Fossa acetabuli ein; aber auch ein Band entspringt in der Fossa acetabuli, ein platter bindegewebiger Strang, Lig. teres femoris, dessen anderes Ende in der Fovea capitis femoris befestigt ist. Die starke Capsula articularis entspringt aussen an derBasis der Pfannenlippe, etwa 5-7 mm von deren freiem Rande entfernt. AmOberschenkel erstreckt es sich vorn bis zur Linea intertrochanterica herab, während es hinten am Schenkelhalse inseriert , lange bevor die Crista intertrochanterica erreicht ist.

 

Quote p. 277.

Das Schenkelbein, Femur. Fig. 273 und 274.

Am Schenkelbeine, dem grössten Knochen des Körpers , unterscheidet man, wie an anderen Röhrenknochen, zwei Endstücke und ein Mittelstück, Schaft oder Körper.

Das obere Endstück, Extremitas capitata, zeigt den Kopf und den Hals. Der kugelige Kopf, Caput femoris, besitzt eine Gelenkfläche, welche etwa 2/3 eines Sphäroides umfasst, das oben etwas abgeplattet ist. Unter der Mitte der Gelenkfläche liegt eine rundliche Vertiefung, Fovea capitis, in welcher das Ligamentum teres femoris sich ansetzt. Die seitliche Stellung des Gelenkkopfes ist am Schenkelbeine entschiedener ausgeprägt, als am Humerus, indem ein sehr langer Hals, Collum femoris, die Anfügung des Kopfes an den Schaft vermittelt.

 

Quote p. 380.

Über die Bedeutung des Lig. teres femoris liegen zahlreiche Untersuchungen vor. Es ergiebt sich, dass es während der Wachstumsperiode Blutgefässträger zum Schenkelkopfe ist. später aber wesentlich als Hemmungsband und Umtreibungsmittel der Synovia wirkt.

Homo floresiensis

  HOMO FLORESIENSIS Homo floresiensis lived on the island of Flores (Indonesia) 190-50 Kya (2016SutiknaT_RobertsRG). The ancestor of this species is «suspected» to be the Asian subtype Homo erectus, which arrived from the mainland about 800 Kya (2009LyrasGA_DeVosJ). The anatomy of Homo floresiensis is less similar to Homo habilis (2008Gordon_WoodB). Homo floresiensis Author: Cicero Moraes et al.  (Arc-Team)  ; source: wikimedia.org   collection (license CC BY 4.0, no changes). Among the discovered remains of a female Homo floresiensis  ( humanorigins . si . edu )  there is a relatively well-preserved left pelvic bone (LB1/7). It has a « typically human » acetabulum (2009JungersWL_DjubiantonoT:Fig.3). The acetabulum has a complete fusion of the three bones that form it and is not hypoplastic (2012BrownP:Fig.4). The acetabular fossa is rounded and deep, continuing downwards and forwards as a wide acetabular notch. This area is the site of attachment and func...

Tiktaalik roseae

  TIKTAALIK ROSEAE The first truly tetrapod animal (Limbed tetrapods) is recognized as the lobe-finned fish Tiktaalik roseae (clade Elpistostegalia), discovered in rocks aged about 375 Ma (2006DaeschlerEB_JenkinsJrFA; 2008ShubinN; 2017ShubinN). Discoveries in recent years have allowed us to place the taxa of early tetrapodomorphs in the following order: Tinirau, Eusthenopteron, Megalichthys, Panderichthys, Qikiqtania, Tiktaalik, Elpistostege, Parmastega, Ventastega, Acanthostega, Elginerpeton, Ymeria, Ichthyostega (2022StewartTA_ShubinNH).

Catalog. Arthroscopic reconstruction

  Introduction  Currently, ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) reconstruction using arthroscopic technologies is considered promising. According to the literature available to us, the first such operation was performed by Marc J. Philippon, which he first reported on in May 2006 (2006PhilipponMJ). Until now, reconstruction of LCF using minimally invasive technologies has not yet become widespread. The long-term results of arthroscopic LCF repair are still uncertain due to insufficient number of surgical procedures performed and short follow-up period (2014O'DonnellJM_SinghPJ).

[ii]   Introduction One of the first studies devoted to the diagnosis of LCF injury demonstrated a variety of symptoms: groin pain, hip stiffness, sometimes long-standing minimal clinical findings, or signs similar to osteoarthritis (1997GrayA_VillarRN). More than a decade later, researchers concluded: "Unfortunately, there is no specific test for detecting LCF tears." The signs known at that time were nonspecific and were also observed in other intra-articular pathologies of the hip joint (2010CerezalL_Pérez-CarroL). The a...
