What is the name ligament of the knee?
There are many ligaments that are in the ankle, but the most common and the strongest is the deltoid. There are also three lateral ligaments. Anterior Talofibular (which is the ligament that runs in the front) this where sprained ankles frequently occur. Posterior Talofibular (which is the ligament that runs in the back). Calcaneofibular is attached to the lateral malleolus. Hope this helped! :)
What are the name of the surrounding ligaments of the knee?
Patellar ligament (anterior). Two popliteal ligaments (posterior). Anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments (inside joint capsule). Tibial collateral ligament (medial). Fibular collateral ligament (lateral).
What does the medical abbreviation ACL mean?
ACL stands for Anterior Cruciate Ligament - the main ligament in the knee binding the back of the thigh bone to the front of the shin bone.
What is the relative positions of the posterior cruciate ligament and the anterior cruciate ligament to the ligament of Humphrey?
Posterior and anterior to the Humphrey ligament... seriously.pos·te·ri·or/päˈsti(ə)rēər/ AdjectiveFurther back in position; of or nearer the rear or hind end.andan·te·ri·or/anˈti(ə)rēər/ AdjectiveNearer the front, esp. situated in the front of the body, or nearer to the head or forepart.Looks like the devil has got to Mr Webster... no one seems to read anymore...
Where is your ACL?
Anterior Cruciate Ligament is approximately located in the middle of the human knee. It is vertically binding the back of the thigh bone (the femur) to the front of the shin bone (the tibia).
What keeps the femur from slipping backward off the tibia?
1. The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) keeps the femur(thighbone) from slipping off the tibia (shinbone), because it connects to both from the back.
What do ligaments do for the knee?
Keeps from luxating back and forth the distal femoral end from the tibial proximal end.II.As their name suggests, each ligament of the cruciate ligament pair crosses the other between its own attachment points, respectively, on laterally opposite aspects of the femur and of the tibia; and conversely for the "opposing" cruciate ligament in the cruciate ligament pair. So, then, you have two restraints (think of them like ropes . . . which, incidentally, is just the thing used to repair joints with severed tendons): one with origin on the medial (inside)aspect of distal femur which attaches to lateral aspect of proximal tibia and restricts forward flexing of tibia (this preventing backward flexion of knee joint; the other attached on opposite aspects, respectively, of femur and tibia and imparting similar leg anti-back-flexion restriction; and also combining, each with the other, to double the force which would be required (to double the tensile strength needing to be "overcome") in order to cause backward (unstable) flexion of the knee joint.It is the "crossing" aspect of the ligament pair (over and above said doubling of tensile strength without doubling of ligament size and pathway) that contributes substantially to imparting knee joint stability: in that the two ligaments, functioning in tandem while also opposing each other at their limits of extension, also restricts transversely-directed torsion/twist between humerus and tibia, a motion which direct, femur-tibia ligament attachment on each side of the knee joint could not effectively do, if at all . . . because a ligament (or rope) cannot effectively impart or resist any force other than in the same direction as its stretched-out length; a femur-attached tendon cannot effectively influence a laterally imposed force applied at its distal attachment to the tibia, but stretching a ligament between those same limits of twist (and on both sides in opposition) can effectively accomplish that same action.
Is the Wrisberg a ligament in the back of the knee?
Yes, it's full name is the "posterior meniscofemoral ligament".

How does a horses check ligament become sore or injured?
A horse's Check Ligament runs along the back of the leg and is most frequently injured when a horse lands a jump or steps wrong resulting in a strain of the ligament.
