| life support systems | Systems that provide all or most of the items necessary for maintaining life and health. Provisions are made for the supplying of oxygen, food, water, temperature and pressure control, disposition of carbon dioxide and body waste. The milieu may be a spacecraft, a submarine, or the surface of the moon. In medical care, usually under hospital conditions, life support care is available. (12 Dec 1998) |
|---|---|
| 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) |
| coronary ligament of knee | Portions of the articular capsule of the knee joint which connect the circumference of the menisci with the margins of the condyles of the tibia. (05 Mar 2000) |
