Abstract
The knee is the largest joint in the body. It is a synovial joint of the modified hinge (condyloid) type between the distal end of the femur, the patella and the proximal end of the tibia. The femoral articular surface is formed of three surfaces: a middle concave surface for the patella (trochlea), and medial and lateral condylar surfaces for the tibia which are markedly convex. The upper surface of each tibia is oval and slightly concave (Figure 1).
