A bending of the knee, as in respect or courtesy. "Give them title, knee, and approbation." (Shak) Knee breeches. See Breeches. <botany> Knee holly, Knee holm a jerk or kick produced by a blow or sudden strain upon the patellar tendon of the knee, which causes a sudden contraction of the quadriceps muscle; one of the so-called tendon reflexes. Knee joint. Knee timber, timber with knees or angles in it. Knee tribute, or Knee worship, tribute paid by kneeling; worship by genuflection. "Knee tribute yet unpaid." Origin: OE. Kne, cneo, As.

| knee arthroplasty | <orthopaedics, procedure> Surgery involving the replacement of the knee joint with artificial components which reestablishes normal joint function. Indicated in cases of severe knee fracture or degenerative arthritis (DJD) unresponsive to medical therapy. (17 Dec 1997) |
| knee bursitis | A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body. There are three major bursae of the knee. Bursitis is usually not infectious, but the bursa can become infected. Treatment of non-infectious bursitis includes rest, ice, and medications for inflammation and pain. Infectious bursitis is treated with antibiotics, aspiration, and surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| knee cap dislocation | <orthopaedics> A dislocation of the knee cap most often occurs with the knee cap moving laterally (toward the outer aspect of the leg). Features include a partially flexed knee joint with obvious displacement of the knee cap laterally. Reduction is accomplished with knee joint extension and gently coaxing the knee cap back to the midline. (17 Dec 1997) |
| knee injuries | Injuries to the knee or the knee joint. (12 Dec 1998) |
| knee jerk | The reflex tested by tapping just below the bent knee on the patellar tendon to cause the quadriceps muscle to contract and bring the lower leg forward. It has given rise to the saying: a knee-jerk reaction. Also known medically as the patellar reflex. (12 Dec 1998) |
| knee joint | A compound condylar synovial joint consisting of the joint between the condyles of the femur and the condyles of the tibia, articular menisci (semilunar cartilages) being interposed, and the articulation between femur and patella. Synonym: articulatio genus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| knee phenomenon | A sudden contraction of the anterior muscles of the thigh, caused by a smart tap on the patellar tendon while the leg hangs loosely at a right angle with the thigh. Synonym: knee jerk, knee phenomenon, knee reflex, knee-jerk reflex, patellar tendon reflex, quadriceps reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| knee prosthesis | Replacement for a knee joint. (12 Dec 1998) |
| knee reflex | A sudden contraction of the anterior muscles of the thigh, caused by a smart tap on the patellar tendon while the leg hangs loosely at a right angle with the thigh. Synonym: knee jerk, knee phenomenon, knee reflex, knee-jerk reflex, patellar tendon reflex, quadriceps reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| knee sprain | <orthopaedics> Any injury to one of six different ligaments which stabilise the knee joint. Those ligaments include: medial and lateral collaterals, medial and lateral meniscus and the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments. Knee sprains are characterised by knee pain, swelling and tenderness with range of motion. Severe sprains may result in a knee joint effusion (blood inside the joint). Completely torn ligaments may require surgical repair to reestablish knee joint stability. (17 Dec 1997) |
| knee-chest position | A prone posture resting on the knees and upper part of the chest, assumed for gynecologic or rectal examination. Synonym: genupectoral position. (05 Mar 2000) |
| knee-deep | 1. Rising to the knees; knee-high; as, water or snow knee-deep. "Grass knee-deep within a month." (Milton) 2. Sunk to the knees; as, men knee-deep in water. "Where knee-deep the trees were standing." (Longfellow) Source: Websters Dictionary (01 Mar 1998) |
| knee-elbow position | A prone position resting on the knees and elbows, assumed for gynecologic or rectal examination or operation. Synonym: genucubital position. (05 Mar 2000) |
| knee-jerk reflex | A sudden contraction of the anterior muscles of the thigh, caused by a smart tap on the patellar tendon while the leg hangs loosely at a right angle with the thigh. Synonym: knee jerk, knee phenomenon, knee reflex, knee-jerk reflex, patellar tendon reflex, quadriceps reflex. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anterior knee region | The anterior region of the knee. Synonym: regio genus anterior. (05 Mar 2000) |
|---|---|
| arthroplasty, replacement, knee | Replacement of the knee joint. (12 Dec 1998) |
| arthroscopic knee repair | <orthopaedics> A fibreoptic procedure, known as arthroscopy, is used in the surgical repair of any of several knee ligaments including the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), lateral or medial meniscus, lateral collateral or medial collateral ligament. Recovery from this procedure is based largely on the ligament repaired and can be highly variable. (27 Sep 1997) |
| articular muscle of knee | <anatomy, muscle> Origin, lower fourth of anterior surface of shaft of femur; insertion, suprapatellar bursa of knee joint; action, retracts suprapatellar bursa, during extension of knee; nerve supply, femoral. Synonym: musculus articularis genus, articular muscle of knee, Dupre's muscle, subcrural muscle, subcruralis, subcrureus, subquadricipital muscle. (05 Mar 2000) |
| articular vascular network of knee | An arterial network over the front and sides of the knee, formed by branches of the descending genicular artery, of the five genicular arteries from the popliteal, of the anterior tibial recurrent, and of the fibular circumflex branch of the posterior tibial. Synonym: rete articulare genus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| back-knee | Hyperextension of the knee, the lower extremity having a forward curvature. Synonym: back-knee. (05 Mar 2000) |
| Brodie's knee | Chronic hypertrophic synovitis of the knee. Synonym: Brodie's disease. (05 Mar 2000) |
| bursitis, knee | A bursa is a fluid-filled sac that functions as a gliding surface to reduce friction between moving tissues of the body. There are three major bursae of the knee. Bursitis is usually not infectious, but the bursa can become infected. Treatment of non-infectious bursitis includes rest, ice, and medications for inflammation and pain. Infectious bursitis is treated with antibiotics, aspiration, and surgery. (12 Dec 1998) |
| capped knee | Swelling of the bursa of the extensor metacarpi magnus muscle in cattle, usually caused by injury to the carpus in getting up and down on hard floors. (05 Mar 2000) |
| pain, knee | Causes of knee pain include injury, degeneration, arthritis, infrequently infection and rarely bone tumours. (12 Dec 1998) |
| veins of knee | The veins that accompany the genicular arteries; they drain blood from the structures around the knee, terminating in the popliteal vein. Synonym: venae genus. (05 Mar 2000) |
| medial collateral ligament, knee | A broad, flat, longitudinal band on the medial side of the knee joint. It is attached superiorly to the medial epicondyle of the femur, inferiorly to the medial surface of the body of the tibia, and in between to the medial meniscus. It is a frequent site of injury, particularly rupture and tear. (12 Dec 1998) |
| medial ligament of knee | <anatomy> The broad fibrous band that passes from the medial epicondyle of the femur to the medial margin and medial surface of the tibia; the medial meniscus is attached to its deep surface; it is continuous with (a thickening of) the fibrous capsule of the knee joint. Synonym: ligamentum collaterale tibiale, medial ligament of knee. (05 Mar 2000) |
