	III. Syndesmology. 7b. The Knee-joint. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body.
		The lateral condyle of the femur is brought almost to rest by the tightening of the anterior cruciate ligament; it moves, however, slightly forward and medialward, pushing before it the anterior part of the lateral meniscus.
		Into the groove on the medial condyle is fitted the anterior part of the medial meniscus, while the anterior cruciate ligament and the articular margin in front of the medial process of the tibial intercondyloid eminence are received into the forepart of the intercondyloid fossa of the femur.
		It is attached, above, to the medial condyle of the femur immediately below the adductor tubercle; below, to the medial condyle and medial surface of the body of the tibia.

	II. Osteology. 6c. 3. The Femur. Gray, Henry. 1918. Anatomy of the Human Body.
		The other two borders of the femur are only slightly marked: the lateral border extends from the antero-inferior angle of the greater trochanter to the anterior extremity of the lateral condyle; the medial border from the intertrochanteric line, at a point opposite the lesser trochanter, to the anterior extremity of the medial condyle.
		When, however, the femur is in its natural oblique position the lower surfaces of the two condyles lie practically in the same horizontal plane.
		The trabeculæ of the upper femur, as shown in frontal sections, are arranged in two general systems, compressive and tensile, which correspond in position with the lines of maximum and minimum stresses in the femur determined by the mathematical analysis of the femur as a mechanical structure.

		On its medial side, above, are the Semimembranosus and the medial condyle of the femur; below, the tibial nerve, the popliteal vein, and the medial head of the Gastrocnemius.
		It divides into two branches, one of which supplies the Vastus medialis, anastomosing with the highest genicular and medial inferior genicular arteries; the other ramifies close to the surface of the femur, supplying it and the knee-joint, and anastomosing with the lateral superior genicular artery.
		The medial superior genicular runs in front of the Semimembranosus and Semitendinosus, above the medial head of the Gastrocnemius, and passes beneath the tendon of the Adductor magnus.

		Running obliquely downward and medialward from the summit of the greater trochanter on the posterior surface of the neck is a prominent ridge, the intertrochanteric crest.
		Although the action of the muscles exerts an appreciable effect on the stresses in the femur, it is relatively small and very complex to analyze and has not been considered in the above analysis.

	Popliteal Artery Entrapment Syndrome: A Case Report
		Entrapment of the artery occurs when the popliteal artery courses medially as a variant and enters into a confined space between the medial condyle of the femur and the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle.
		This entrapment may also occur by way of an accessory muscle situated between the medial femoral condylus to the medial gastrocnemius muscle.
		Popliteal artery entrapment is described in the literature as being due to external compression of the popliteal artery by a congenital anomalous relationship to the gastrocnemius muscle.

		The physical features of an externally rotated tibia are medial capsular pain and tenderness, genu valgum, a prominent medial tibial condyle and plateau, tightness of the pes anserine tendons, chondromalacia patellae, and restricted internal tibial rotation.
		The typical physical features of an internally rotated tibia are lateral capsular pain and tenderness, genu varum, a prominent lateral tibial condyle and plateau, tightness of the iliotibial band and lateral hamstring tendons, chondromalacia patellae, and restricted external tibial rotation.
		Incidence is highest in the young adult, and genu recurvatum is the typical exciting agent; ie, hyperextension during single-leg stance and the push-off phase of gait.

		It extends from the opening in the Adductor magnus, at the junction of the middle and lower thirds of the thigh, downward and lateralward to the intercondyloid fossa of the femur, and then vertically downward to the lower border of the Popliteus, where it divides into anterior and posterior tibial arteries.
		—In front of the artery from above downward are the popliteal surface of the femur (which is separated from the vessel by some fat), the back of the knee-joint, and the fascia covering the Popliteus.

		The caudal horn of the lateral meniscus is also attached to the lateral aspect of the medial femoral condyle by means of the femoral ligament of the lateral meniscus.
		The caudal cruciate ligament functions to prevent caudal displacement of the tibia on the femur and, in conjunction with cranial cruciate ligament, limits excessive internal rotation of the tibia on the femur.
		The caudal cruciate ligament passes caudodistally to the medial aspect of the popliteal notch of the tibia( Fig.

	THE POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT: Injury, Treatment & Rehabilitation
		The sutures are then guided through a tunnel that is bored from the insertion site of the PCL through the femoral condyle, exiting on the medial border of the femur.
		The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is composed of a bundle of ligament fibers attaching the posterior aspect of the tibia to the femur in the knee joint.
		The PCL acts as the primary restraint to posterior translation of the tibia (shin) on the femur.

	eMedicine - Iliotibial Band Syndrome : Article by John M Martinez, MD
		The ITB has insertions on the lateral tibial condyle (ie, the Gerdy tubercle) and the distal portion of the femur.
		Background: Iliotibial band syndrome (ITBS) is the result of inflammation and irritation of the distal portion of the iliotibial tendon as it rubs against the lateral femoral condyle, or less commonly, the greater tuberosity.
		Excessive internal or medial rotation of bike cleats and a bike seat that is too high are 2 main causes of ITBS among cyclists.

	eMedicine - Lateral Compartment Arthritis : Article by B Sonny Bal, MD
		Etiology: Usually, a genu valgum deformity is the result of a dysplastic lateral femoral condyle that contributes to pathologic loading of the lateral compartment of the knee and subsequent bone and cartilage destruction (Washington, 1995).
		Lateral compartment arthrosis is encountered less frequently than genu varum deformity because the medial joint compartment of the knee is affected most commonly by degenerative changes, followed by the patellofemoral and lateral compartments (Johnson, 1981).
		In such cases, genu valgum is the result of a valgus orientation of the distal part of the femur relative to its long axis (Cooke, 1994; Poilvache, 1996; Yoshioka, 1987).
