New publications of our resource in 2026

The initial phase of collecting data on LCF, accumulated prior to the 20th century, is largely complete. Next, we plan to analyze and synthesize thematic information, adding data from the 20th and 21st centuries. The work will focus primarily on: prevention, diagnosis, arthroscopy, plastic surgery, and endoprosthetics.

22cent.bcBaqetI

Groups of wrestlers are depicted on the walls of tomb BH29, belonging to Baqet I – a contemporary of the pharaohs of the early 11th Dynasty (frescoes, Beni Hasan, Egypt). The images show wrestling scenes and the circumstances under which injuries to the hip joint – including the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) – might occur. These frescoes appear to have served as the basis for the description of a wrestling match found in the Book of Genesis:   25 And Ja cob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.  26 And when he saw that he could not pre vail against him, he struck against the hollow of his thigh ; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was put out of joint, as he was wrestling with him. … 33 Therefore do the children of Israel not eat the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day; because he struck against the hollow of Jacob's thigh on the sinew that shrank.

  Fragment from the book Darenberg CV, Ruelle CE. Oeuvres de Rufus d'Ephèse (Works of Rufus of Ephesus, 1879). Rufus of Ephesus writes about the localization of the proximal attachment area and the connecting function of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF), using a rare synonym (ἰσχίον). See our commentary at the link: 1879DarenbergCV_RuelleCE [Rus], 70-110Rufus Ephesius , and 2020ArkhipovSV_ProlyginaIV . Quote [Grc] Περι   ονομασιας   τών   του  a νθρώπου   μορίων .

1845ArnoldF

  Fragment from the book Arnold F. Handbuch der Anatomie des Menschen (1845). The author briefly describes the anatomy of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) and notes its role in supporting the pelvis when the body is in an upright position. The text is prepared for machine translation using a service built into the blog from Google or your web browser.   Quote p. 524 b) Das runde Schenkelband, ligamentum teres s. rotundum femoris, liegt in der Hüftpfanne, ist ungefähr 1" lang, entspringt mit zwei Schenkeln von den beiden Hörnern der Pfanne, einem grösseren unteren von der äusseren Fläche des unteren und einem kleineren oberen Schenkel von der inneren Fläche des oberen Horns, läuft in senkrechter Richtung in der Pfannengrube, bekleidet von der Synovialhaut, aufwärts und setzt sich in der Grube des Schenkelkopfs fest. In diesem Bande verlaufen die Ernährungsgefässe zum Kopf des Oberschenkels. Es ist durch seine Stärke und seine Richtung geeignet, bei aufrechter Stellung d...

1893GriffithFL

  Griffith F.L. (1893): A group of wrestlers on the wall of the tomb of Baqet III (fresco, late 20th century BCE, Egypt). A depiction of the circumstances surrounding a hip joint injury—possibly involving the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) – which served as the basis for the description of a wrestling match in the Book of Genesis:   25 And Ja cob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.  26 And when he saw that he could not pre vail against him, he struck against the hollow of his thigh ; and the hollow of Jacob's thigh was put out of joint, as he was wrestling with him. … 33 Therefore do the children of Israel not eat the sinew which shrank, which is upon the hollow of the thigh, unto this day; because he struck against the hollow of Jacob's thigh on the sinew that shrank.
