| intercondylar line of femur | A faint transverse ridge separating the floor of the intercondylar fossa from the popliteal surface of the femur; it affords attachment to the posterior portion of the articular capsule of the knee. Synonym: linea intercondylaris femoris. (05 Mar 2000) |

| femur head | The hemispheric articular surface at the upper extremity of the thigh bone. (12 Dec 1998) |
| femur head necrosis | Aseptic or avascular necrosis of the femoral head. The major types are idiopathic (primary), as a complication of fractures or dislocations, and legg-perthes disease. (12 Dec 1998) |
| lateral condyle of femur | The lateral condyle is longer than the medial condyle. Synonym: condylus lateralis femoris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| lateral epicondyle of femur | The epicondylus located proximal to the lateral condyle. Synonym: epicondylus lateralis ossis femoris, lateral femoral tuberosity. (05 Mar 2000) |
| ligament of head of femur | A flattened ligament that passes from the fovea in the head of the femur to the borders of the acetabular notch (transverse acetabular ligament); developmentally, an artery passes to the head of the femur with the ligament which may or may not persist into adulthood; the ligament does not contribute to the integrity of the joint or control movements there. Synonym: ligamentum capitis femoris, ligamentum teres femoris, round ligament of femur. (05 Mar 2000) |
| anastomotic branch of middle meningeal artery to lacrimal artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of the middle meningeal artery arising in the cranial cavity which runs anteriorly through the superior orbital fissure to anastomose with the lacrimal artery. See: orbital branch of middle meningeal artery. Synonym: ramus anastomoticus arteriae meningeae mediae cum lacrimali. (05 Mar 2000) |

| accessory meningeal branch of middle meningeal artery | <anatomy, artery> A branch of either the middle meningeal or maxillary artery in the infratemporal fossa and passing superiorly through the foramen ovale to supply the trigeminal ganglion, dura mater and inner table of bone. Synonym: ramus meningeus accessorius arteriae meningeae mediae. (05 Mar 2000) |
| accessory obturator artery | <anatomy, artery> Term applied to the anastomosis of pubic branch of the inferior epigastric artery with the pubic branch of the obturator artery when it contributes a significant supply through the obturator canal. Synonym: arteria obturatoria accessoria, ramus obturatorius arteriae epigastricae inferioris. (05 Mar 2000) |
| acetabular artery | An arterial branch that supplies the acetabulum; two arteries, the obturator and the medial femoral circumflex, have such branches. Synonym: ramus acetabularis, acetabular artery, arteria acetabuli. (05 Mar 2000) |
