the weight-bearing portion of the medial femoral condyle Explanation: OD occurs in the joint cartilage and physis of long bones, as well as in the talus. The medial femoral condyle is the most commonly affected site. OD of the weight-bearing, inferocentral portion of medial condyle is an uncommon, but still challenging issue in knee surgery. cccccc Medial condyle of femur The medial condyle is larger than the lateral (outer) condyle due to more weight bearing caused by the centre of mass being medial to the knee. On the posterior surface of the condyle the linea aspera (a ridge with two lips: medial and lateral; running down the posterior shaft of the femur) turns into the medial and lateral supracondylar ridges, respectively. The outermost protrusion on the medial surface of the medial condyle is referred to as the "medial epicondyle" and can be palpated by running fingers medially from the patella with the knee in flexion. It is important[why?] to take into consideration the difference in the length of the condyles in a cross section to better understand the geometry of the knee. The medial femoral condyle has an extra segment which is the cause for the passive rotation of the knee joint. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Medial_condyle_of_femur |
