Question
Answer
glenohumeral ligaments placement   one end attaches to the rim of the glenoid cavity, the other attaches to the humerus, 3 of them  
🗑
transverse humeral ligaments placement   runs across the humerus and goes over the intertubercle sulcus--extends between the greater and lesser tubercles of the humerus  
🗑
transverse humeral ligaments function   keeps biceps muscle tendon in the sulcus  
🗑
coracohumeral ligament placement   runs from the coracoid process to the humerus  
🗑
Coracoacromial ligament placement   runs from the coracoid process to the acromion  
🗑
rotator cuff muscles function   maintain most of the stability of the joint, hold the head of the humerus in the glenoid cavity  
🗑
rotator cuff muscles location   found along the superior, anterior, and posterior sides of the shoulder joint  
🗑
Movement possible at the shoulder joint   abduction, adduction, circumduction, extension, flexion, hyperextension, lateral rotation, and medial rotation of the arm  
🗑
Movements possible at the knee joint   extension, flexion, lateral rotation of leg in flexed position, slight medial rotation  
🗑
anterior cruciate ligament placement   runs from the posterior femur to the anterior side of the tibia  
🗑
anterior cruciate ligament function   becomes tighter as you extend your knee, prevents hyperextension of the knee  
🗑
posterior cruciate ligament placement   runs from the anteroinferior femur to the posterior side of the tibia  
🗑
posterior cruciate ligament function   tightens as you flex the knee, keeps the femur from sliding off the tibia  
🗑
tibial (medial) collateral ligament   runs from the femur to the tibia and reinforces the medial surface of the knee joint  
🗑
fibular (lateral) collateral ligament   runs from the femur (lateral epicondyle) to the fibula and reinforces the lateral surface of the knee joint  
🗑
medial and lateral menisci placement   fibrocartilage articular discs between each condyle and the proximal end of the tibia  
🗑
menisci function   cushion and keep bones together  
🗑
unhappy triad injury #1   damage to medial collateral ligament due to a severe lateral blow  
🗑
unhappy triad injury #2   torn medial menisci  
🗑
unhappy triad injury #3   torn anterior cruciate ligament (weakest)  
🗑
