Sesamoid
Which bone is a large sesamoid bone?
The largest sesamoid bone in the body is the patella, most commonly known as the kneecap.
Is the patella bone a irregular bone or a flat bone?
The patella bone is classified as a sesamoid bone, which is a type of irregular bone. Sesamoid bones form within tendons where there is high friction and stress, such as the patella within the quadriceps tendon.
The patella kneecap is and example of a large what bone?
The patella or kneecap is an example of a large sesamoid bone. Sesamoid bones are small bones embedded within tendons that help to protect and increase the efficiency of joint movement, such as the patella in the knee joint.
What sesamoid bone forms in the quadriceps tendon?
Sesamoid bones are also found occasionally at the metacarpophalangeal joints of the middle and ring fingers, at the interphalangeal joint of the thumb and at the distal interphalangeal joint of the index finger. In the lower extremity the largest sesamoid bone of the joints is the patella, developed in the tendon of the Quadriceps femoris.

Where would you find a sesamoid bone?
Sesamoid bones are typically found embedded within the tendons of certain muscles, such as the patella (kneecap) and the sesamoid bones in the tendons of the big toe. They act to protect the tendon and increase its mechanical efficiency.
