Abstract:
A 25-year-old woman with recurrent pronounced enlargement of the iliopsoas bursae is described; her hips were evaluated by ultrasonography and MRI. They appeared normal and communications to the iliopsoas bursae were demonstrated. During the preceding 8 years she had intermittent seronegative non-erosive arthritis of the knee and finger joints and her disease was classified as juvenile chronic arthritis.

01:23Knee Joint
The knee joint is the most complicated joint in the body. It consists of three articulations– two tibiofemoral and one patellofemoral. As is characteristic of synovial joints, the knee joint has a thin articular capsule that partially surrounds this joint cavity. Additionally, several ligaments, muscles, and cartilaginous structures support the movement of the knee.
A total of seven ligaments support the knee joint. The patellar ligament, which is also attached to the quadriceps femoris group...

01:07Development of the Limb Synovial Joints
Joints form during embryonic development in conjunction with the formation and growth of the associated bones. The embryonic tissue that gives rise to all bones, cartilage, and connective tissues of the body is called mesenchyme.
The mesenchymal stem cells differentiate into chondrocytes that form the hyaline cartilage, and later the cartilaginous model of the bone. This model further transforms into a bone. This process is known as endochondral ossification.
