Knee Joint PPT Summary
- The Knee Joint is a modified hinge joint that facilitates movement beyond mere flexion and extension and includes limited rotation.
- It contains complex anatomical structures, such as the tibial plateau, menisci, and cruciate ligaments, essential for joint stability and mobility.
- The anatomically impaired structure of the knee compromises its stability, requiring ligaments and other connective tissues for support.
- The knee joint is surrounded by a joint capsule containing a synovial membrane that plays a vital role in lubrication and nutrient distribution within the joint.
- The blood supply, nerve innervation, and lymphatic drainage of the knee are intricately linked to its overall function, requiring a nuanced understanding of medical treatment and rehabilitation.
