1879TillauxPJ

  The author discusses the anatomy, topography, and role of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). According to P.J. Tillaux, this structure "...is the retaining ligament; it prevents the head from being pressed in the upper part against the bottom of the acetabulum." Similar views were expressed earlier by 1820PallettaGB , 1857TurnerW , and 1874SavoryWS . The author does not deny that the LCF also serves as a conduit for vessels and nerves, supporting M.P.C.Sappey . At the same time, the priority of this view should be recognized for 1820PallettaGB .     Tillaux PJ. Traite d’anatomie topographique avec applications à la chirurgie.

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 ...

1886PanschA

  Fragments from the book Pansch A. Grundriss der Anatomie des Menschen (1886). The author believes that the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) is a synovial process and briefly writes about its anatomy and function. The text is prepared for machine translation using a service built into the blog from Google or your web browser. In some cases, we have added links to quotations about LCF available on our resource, as well as to publications posted on the Internet.   Quote p. 1 56 Das Hüftgelenk hat ein Ligamentum interarticulare, das sogenannte Ligamentum teres (Fig. 191 t), welches breit an der Incisura beginnt und an der Fovea capitis endet, also ziemlich gerade aufwärts zieht. Das Band hat eine verschiedene Dicke und ist weniger zu den Bändern, als zu den Synovialfortsätzen zu zählen. Es lagert sich in die Fossa acetabuli, die nicht überknorpelt, sondern mit Fett erfüllt ist, welches eine bewegliche und mit Synovialhaut überzogene Masse darstellt.   Fig. 191. Hüftge...

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. I would like to explain how this important structure helps us.

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.
