    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Human Anatomy
    • Biomechanics

    Background:

    • Knee disorders often stem from complex anatomical interactions.
    • Understanding knee joint anatomy is crucial for effective clinical diagnosis and treatment.
    • Existing literature may not sufficiently emphasize the clinical relevance of anatomical structures.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To provide a foundational understanding of knee anatomy relevant to clinical practice.
    • To elucidate the relationship between osseous structures, muscular actions, and soft tissues of the knee.
    • To enhance clinicians' comprehension of knee structure-function dynamics.

    Main Methods:

    • Descriptive anatomical review.
    • Focus on clinically significant structures.
    • Integration of osseous and soft tissue components.

    Main Results:

    • Detailed discussion of the osseous portions of the knee in relation to muscular actions.
    • Description of soft tissues relative to osseous components defining knee compartments.
    • Emphasis on the interplay between anatomical structures.

    Conclusions:

    • This article serves as an introduction to knee anatomy for clinicians.
    • It highlights the clinical importance of understanding the interaction between knee structure and function.
    • A greater grasp of anatomical relationships can improve the management of knee disorders.
