LifeFitness Knee Parts Knee parts to identify • Femur • Fibula • Tibia • Patella • Posterior Cruciate Ligament • Anterior Cruciate Ligament • Lateral Collateral Ligament • Medial Collateral Ligament • Lateral Meniscus • Medial Meniscus Terms: - Tendon - Sprain Grade 1 Grade 2 Grade 3 - Strain - Meniscus & Tears Bucket handle Loose bodies (joint mice) - Bursa - Arthroscopic Meniscetomy - Mechanism of torn ACL - Mechanism of tear to MCL - Chrondromalacia - Dislocated Patella - Total Knee Replacement - Osgood-Schlatters Write in the knee part on the appropriate line • Posterior Cruciate Ligament • Medial Meniscus • Lateral Collateral Ligament • Tibia • Patella • Anterior Cruciate Ligament • Medial Collateral Ligament • Fibula • Femur • Lateral Meniscus Femur Posterior Cruciate Ligament Anterior Cruciate Ligament Lateral Collateral Ligament Lateral Meniscus Medial Collateral Ligament Medial Meniscus Fibula Tibia Patella Terms: - Tendon … Attaches muscle to bone - Ligament … holds bones together - Sprain … Injury to ligaments Grade 1 – slight damage to ligament, 1 to 2 weeks to heal Grade 2 – tearing of the ligament. 2 to 4 weeks to heal Grade 3 – severe tearing of the ligament, 4+ weeks to heal may require surgery - Strain … Injury to the muscles, same degrees of injury apply as above - Meniscus & Tears … Tearing of the cartilage (meniscus) - Bucket handle … tear to the meniscus that looks like a handle of a bucket, caused by rotation of the knee - Loose bodies (joint mice) … Tearing of the meniscus with pieces of it coming loose, the loose pieces float in the knee joint and can lock the joint of if they get wedged between the bones - Bursa … sac that contains fluid to lubricate the joints in the body. Can get a blow to the knee disrupt the sac and causes swelling (water on the knee) this causes pressure in the joint and discomfort, might have to aspirate (drain) the area with a large hypodermic needle. If the sac does not secrete fluid the joint can become dry and cause bursitis. - Arthroscopic Meniscetomy … non major knee surgery usually preformed in the doctors surgical center, three scopes and inserted into the joint. One so the doctor can see the surgical performance, another to drain and remove tissue and last to actually perform the procedure. Recovery can be within 6 weeks. - Mechanism of torn ACL … usually happens when the foot is planted and a twisting action happens with the upper femur (making quick cuts or fast stops in a sport). Other considerations are the lack of strength and conditioning. For the female athlete the femoral notch is less rounded in shape than the males and can cause a shearing affect. The female also has a wider hip to knee angle than the male which can place more pressure on the knee. - Mechanism of tear to MCL … Blow to the outside of the leg, the lateral collateral ligament is protected from inside blows by the other leg - Chrondromalacia … roughening of the under side of the patella, can be casued by muscle imbalance, falls, or just wearing down. Can wear a neoprene sleeve type of knee brace with a patellar cutout to stabilize the knee cap - Dislocated Patella … Knee cap coming off track and popping over to the side. - Total Knee Replacement … Replacing the growth plate area of the bones in the knee joints as well as the meniscus between the bones - Osgood-Schlatters … Usually associated with the rapid growth of an individual. The tibia bone shows (jutting out) below the knee cap. The patellar ligament attaching to the boner (tuberosity) is painful to touch, Time heals. Might ice the condition as it becomes too uncomfortable to perform.
