[i] Summary

Abstract of the article Stetzelberger VM, Nishimura H, Hollenbeck JF, Garcia A, Brown JR, Schwab JM, Philippon JM, Tannast M (2024). The authors found low ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) strength in patients with femoroacetabular impingement. A Russian translation is available at this link: 2024StetzelbergerVM_TannastM.

Background: Intraarticular hip pain represents a substantial clinical challenge, with recent studies implicating lesions in the ligamentum teres as potential contributors. Even more so, damage to the ligamentum teres is particularly prevalent among young patients undergoing joint-preserving interventions. Although several studies have investigated the biomechanical attributes of the ligamentum teres, inconsistencies in reported findings and reliance on cadaveric or animal models have raised concerns regarding the extrapolation of results to clinical practice. Furthermore, there is a lack of research examining ligamentum teres biomechanics specifically within the relevant patient cohort-individuals who benefit from joint-preserving surgical interventions.

Questions/purposes: We sought (1) to determine the biomechanical properties (ultimate load to failure, tensile strength, stiffness, and elastic modulus) of fresh-frozen ligaments from patients undergoing surgical hip dislocation, and (2) to identify patient-specific factors that are associated with them.

Methods: This was an institutional review board-approved study on intraoperatively harvested ligamentum teres from 74 consecutive patients undergoing surgical hip dislocation for joint preservation (August 2021 to September 2022). After the exclusion of patients with previous surgery, posttraumatic deformities, avascular necrosis, slipped capital femoral epiphysis, and Perthes disease, 31 ligaments from 31 patients were analyzed. The mean age of the study group was 27 ± 8 years, and 61% (19) of participants were male. The main indication for surgery was femoroacetabular impingement. Standardized AP pelvic and axial radiographs and CT scans were performed in all patients for better radiological description of the population and to identify associated radiological factors. The ligament was thoroughly transected at its origin on the fossa acetabuli and at the insertion area on the fovea capitis and stored at -20°C until utilization. Specimens were mounted to a materials testing machine via custom clamps that minimized slippage and the likelihood of failure at the clamp. Force-displacement and stress-strain curves were generated. Ultimate failure load (N), tensile strength (MPa), stiffness (N/mm), and elastic modulus (MPa) were determined. Using a multivariate regression analysis and a subgroup analysis, we tested demographic, degenerative, and radiographic factors as potential associated factors.

Results: The ligamentum teres demonstrated an ultimate load to failure of 126 ± 92 N, and the tensile strength was 1 ± 1 MPa. The ligaments exhibited a stiffness of 24 ± 15 N/mm and an elastic modulus of 7 ± 5 MPa. After controlling for potential confounding variables like age, fossa/fovea degeneration, and acetabular/femoral morphologies, we found that female sex was an independent factor for higher tensile strength, stiffness, and elastic modulus. Excessive femoral version was independently associated with lower load to failure (HR 122 [95% CI 47 to 197]) and stiffness (HR 15 [95% CI 2 to 27]). Damage to the acetabular fossa was associated with reduced load to failure (HR -93 [95% CI -159 to -27]).

Conclusion: Overall, the ligamentum teres is a relatively weak ligament. Sex, degeneration, and excessive femoral version are influencing factors on strength of the ligamentum teres. The ligamentum teres exhibits lower strength compared with other joint-stabilizing ligaments, which calls into question its overall contribution to hip stability.

Clinical relevance: Young patients undergoing hip-preserving surgery are the population at risk for ligamentum teres lesions. Baseline values for load to failure, tensile strength, elastic modulus, and stiffness are needed to better understand those lesions in this cohort of interest.

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...

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 8

  Short retelling of chapter 1 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 8. THE LAND OF NOD Cain’s family settled in the land of "Nod," where they established a "city." We propose this tribal group followed a route later known as the Great Khorasan Road, leading Cain, son of Adam, to the Kermanshah Valley in the central Zagros Mountains. There, we believe he founded the settlement of "Enoch," its remnants linked to the archaeological site of Sheikh-e Abad (34°36'42"N, 47°16'11"E). In this village, the newcomers mastered musical instruments, developed metalworking techniques, and some adopted nomadic herding, living in "tents with flocks." As a farmer, Cain likely preserved knowledge of agriculture. Favorable conditions, division of labor, and acquired skills probably fueled population growth among thes...
