[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.

Australopithecus afarensis

  AUSTRALOPITHECUS AFARENSIS In 1735, Carl Linnaeus (1707-1778) placed humans as a species «Homo nosce te ipsum» in the order Anthropomorpha along with monkeys and sloths (1735LinneC). In a publication in 1758, the naturalist transferred humans to the order Primates (1758LinneC). Today, humans and chimpanzees are united in the tribe Hominini, as descended from a common ancestor (2001GrovesCP). It has been established that the chromosome that distinguishes humans from monkeys was formed before 4.5 Ma (2022PoszewieckaB_GambinA). The hominin subfamily Sahelanthropus tchadensis lived in the Republic of Chad (Central Africa) from 7.2±0.31 to 6.8±0.45 Ma (2008LebatardAE_BrunetM; 2012ReynoldsSC_GallagherA). Reconstruction of its musculoskeletal system showed that the creature could have been an upright bipedal primate (2005ZollikoferCP_BrunetM). Fossils of what is probably the first bipedal representative of the hominid family Orrorin tugenensis, lived 6.1-5.7 Ma and still retained adapta...

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). The closest ancestor of Tiktaalik roseae, the fragments of the skeleton of which are relatively well preserved, is Panderichthys.

The shape of the skeleton of the pectoral fin and shoulder girdle suggests that Panderichthys rhombolepis "walked" (2006AhlbergPE_ClackJA). At the very least...

Human Children. Retelling of Chapter 3

Short retelling of chapter 3 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 3. THE DAWN OF SURGERY The animal kingdom exhibits numerous forms of social support, many of which lay the groundwork for rudimentary medical practices. Insects like bees, fish such as cichlids, amphibians like bullfrogs, reptiles like crocodiles, and most birds and mammals demonstrate care for their offspring. Lions and wolves feed injured kin, while buffalo and flocking birds collectively defend against predators. Marine mammals assist struggling companions to the surface for air, and elephants help free trapped herd members from mud or aid them in standing. These behaviors hint at the origins of altruism, a trait that extends to early medical instincts. Animals also engage in self-medication and basic healing. Birds employ various techniques to combat ectoparasites, while moths, ant...

New Biomechanics in Illustrations

  The New Biomechanics of the Hip Joint: A Pictorial Essay S.V. Arkhipov  INTRODUCTION  First in the history of humanity, the mention of ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) and the pathomechanics of walking associated with its damage is found in the ancient literary monument “Book of Genesis” (32:24-24,31-32), created approximately 3600 years ago (2019Arkhipov_Skvortsov; 2023 Архипов ). Fig. 1 The LCF = ligamentum teres of the hip joint, drawing by H.V. Carter (1870Grey). Fig. 2 Pencil drawing “Crossing of the Jabbok River” based on the “Book of Genesis” 32:22 (author: Lyudmila Arkhipova, 2008). The first description of LCF in a medical text is given by Hippocrates of Kos in the treatise “Instruments of Reductions” or “ Mochlicus ”, written in the V-IV centuries BCE (1844Littre). We know that with the normal LCF, walking it is light, rhythmic, and symmetrical, but we don't know “why ”. See video:  Supplement 1  Normal Walking We don't even know why we wi...

Human Children. Retelling of Chapter 6

  Short retelling of chapter 6 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 6. THE GARDEN OF EDEN According to the Book of Genesis, humanity’s earliest ancestors emerged "in the garden of Eden." The text specifies that this idyllic garden was located "in Eden, toward the east." A nameless river flowed from Eden, irrigating the garden, suggesting that "Eden" encompasses a broader region, while the "garden in Eden" is a distinct, cultivated space. Genesis portrays the garden as a divine plantation, established by "Lord God," with humans tasked to tend and maintain it. The garden teemed with diverse trees, including fruit-bearing ones, and later hosted birds, wild animals, and domesticated livestock. Alongside humans, it harbored supernatural beings like cherubim (kyruvy), a serpent, and other divine entities. A s...
