. Handbook of anatomy; being a complete compend of anatomy, including the anatomy of the viscera a chapter on dental anatomy, numerous tables, and incorporating the newer nomenclature adopted by the German anatomical Society, generally designated the Basle nomenclature or BNA . ts, its extremi-ties being inserted behind and in front of the tibial spine. In other words, the ends of the semilunar cartilages are all,except the anterior end of internal, attached to the tibia betweenthe crucial ligaments. A band of fibers passing from the anterior margin of exter-nal cartilage to the internal has received the name of transverseligament (ligamentum transversum genu). ARTICULATION AND LIGAMENTS. 123 The knee is lined by the most extensive synovial membranein the body, covering both surfaces throughout and extendingup between quadriceps tendon and surface of femur. Below the patella in front is a duplicative of synovial mem-brane, inclosing some adipose tissue, which has received thename of ligamentum mucosum (plica synovialis patellaris), andextending from it are two fringes—the ligamenta alaria (pliccealares). On either side in the popliteal space behind are bursa?,which often communicate with the joint. There are also bursas over the patella?, above and beneath.
