The medial/lateral condyles of tibia articulate w/ medial/lateral femoral condyles forming part of knee joint
Tibiofemoral Joint
The medial condyle is longer than the lateral in what motion? (total articular surface length
Extension
The tibia can rotate medially and laterally, in what knee position?
Flexed Position
Represents quadriceps force. A angle (15 degrees) formed by line 1, from ASIS through patella centre and line 2, from tibial tuberosity through patella centre
Q-Angle
Facets of patella articulate w/ patellar surface of femur, forming part of knee joint
Patellofemoral Joint
During flexion, the patella moves “down”
Inferiorly
During extension, the patella moves “up”
Superiorly
Lateral deviation of distal bone of a joint. (I.E. Genu Valgum)
Valgus
Medial deviation of distal bone of a joint. (I.E. Genu Varum)
Varus
