Arthroplasty

Surgery to repair as far as possible, the function of a joint

-plasty

Reshaping by surgery

avascular

Without a blood supply

without

vascul-

blood vessel

labrum

Cartilage that forms a rim around the socket of the hip joint

Necrosis

Pathologic, death of cells or tissue

Prosthesis

Artificial part to remedy a defect in the body

Each of your knees is a hinged joint formed with these four bones

The lower end of the femur, the flat upper end of the tibia, the flat triangular kneecap embedded in the patellar tendon articulating with the femur The fibula which formed a separate joint the tibia fibular joint

Four ligaments hold the knee joint together

ACL,LCL,PCL,MCL

Cruciate

Shaped like a cross, in the knee it's too internal ligaments of the knee joint cross each other to form in X

Fibula

The smaller of the two bones of the lower leg

Rupture

Break or tear of body part

Tibia

The larger bone of the lower leg

Why does the ACL have to be surgically mended?

Due to its poor blood supply, it cannot heal

R.I.C.E

Rest, ice, compression, elevation

Arthrocentesis

Aspiration of fluid from a joint

-centesis

Puncture

Arthrography

X-ray of egg joint taken after the injection of a contrast medium into the joint

bursa

Debridement

The removal of injured or necrotic tissue

Hyperfelxion

Flexion of a limb or part beyond the normal limit

hyper-

Excessive

Meniscectomy

Excision of all or part of a meniscus

-ectomy

Surgical excision(cutting out)

prepatellar

In front of the kneecap

Tendinitis

Inflammation of a tendon

The ankle has two joints

One between the lateral Malleolus of the fibula and the talus and one between the medial malleolus of the tibia and the talus

The lower leg has two differently sized bones

The large medial tibia, the thin lateral fibula

bones of the lower leg and foot

patella, fibula, tibia, medial malleolus, lateral malleolus, tarsals, metatarsals, phalanges

Foot

Phalanges(distal, middle proximal), metatarsals (1-5), tarsals

Bunion

Pott fracture

Fracture of the lower end of the fibula often with fracture of the tibial malleolus

talus

The tarsal bone that articulates with the tibia to the ankle joint

Tarsus

The collection of seven bones in the foot that formed the ankle and step
