Describe the round ligament.—-It arises from the small depression7* 78 ANATOMY, in the head of the femur, and is inserted into the middle of the ace-tabulum.^ Describe the cotyloid ligament.^—It tips the acetabulum, increasingits depth, and is fibro-cartilaginous in structure. What are the ligaments which connect the femur with the tibia andfibula ? — The capsular, popliteal, internal lateral, external lateral, an-terior crucial, and posterior crucial. Describe the capsular ligament. — It passes from the edges of thearticular surface of the femur to those of the tibia, being attached alsoto the patella; called also involucrum generale. \ Where is the popliteal ligament ? (Figs. 49, 50.) — It arises fromthe external condyle of the femur, and, passing in the posterior partof the capsule, is expanded upon the internal side of the joint. Fig. 49. Fig.
