  Fragments of the article Kaku N, Shimada T, Tabata T, Tagomori H, Abe T, Zhang JJ, Tsumura H. Three-dimensional architecture of the ligamentum teres in the human hip joint (2017). The article discusses the internal structure and attachment features of the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) in the norm. Abstract Background:   We aimed to investigate the three-dimensional structure of the collagenous fibers of the ligamentum teres (LT) of the human hip and clarify the LT micro-anatomy at the attachment of the femoral head. Methods: Femoral heads and LT were collected during hip arthroplasty. Specimens were cut into 5–10-mm squares, prepared, developed, and observed under a light microscope. Next, specimens were prepared and examined under a scanning electron microscope (SEM). Results: Under optical microscope, LT adhered to the artificial cartilage at the attachment of the femoral head. Under SEM, LT comprised parallelly arranged collagenous fibers and the fine collagenous fib...

  Fragments of the book FIPAT. Terminologia Anatomica (2nd edition, 2019 ). Current terms for ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF) according to the Federative International Programme for Anatomical Terminology . Quote 1. № 1882 Latin term Ligamentum capitis femoris Latin synonym Ligamentum capitis ossis femoris UK English Ligament of head of femur US English Ligament of head of femur English synonym - Other Ligamentum teres femoris Endnote 263 Quote 2. 263. Ligamentum capitis femoris. The Committee felt fully justified in giving up the use of the term "Ligamentum teres femoris", as it is always a flattened band. [PNA, 1955] Strictly, the term should read Lig. capitis ossis femoris, following the proposal to change Femur to Os femoris. [NA4, 1977]  External links FIPAT. Terminologia Anatomica. 2nd edition.

2010SandersS_EgolKA

  Fragments of the article Sanders S, Tejwani N, Egol KA. Traumatic Hip Dislocation (2010). This review discusses the pathological anatomy of hip dislocation and describes the variants of traumatic changes in the ligamentum capitis femoris (LCF). Quote 1. A small contribution to the head comes from the foveal artery via the ligamentum teres. Quote 2. With hip dislocations, the capsule and the ligamentum teres are usually disrupted. Quote 3. Avulsed fragments of bone are frequently found attached to the ligamentum teres and lying in the fovea. Quote 4. In posterior dislocations, the piriformis, gluteus maximus, capsule, ligamentum teres, labrum, or a bone fragment may prevent reduction (1979CanaleSF_ManugianAH). Quote 5. This finding is common and usually represents a small piece of bone avulsed from the femoral head by the ligamentum teres. External links Sanders S, Tejwani N, Egol KA. Traumatic Hip Dislocation.
