Knee Anatomy Diagram

The knee has two femoral condyles—one on the inside and one on the outside. The medial femoral condyle is situated on the inner side of the knee, while the lateral femoral condyle, which is larger, is found on the outer side. These condyles play a key role in the knee’s overall movement, supporting the joint during bending and providing a smooth surface for the femur to glide over the tibia.

A Knee Anatomy Diagram provides a clear, structured visual representation of the knee's components, including bones, ligaments, tendons, muscles, and vascular structures. It enhances patient education by simplifying complex anatomical concepts, allowing healthcare providers to explain injuries, conditions, and treatment plans in a way that is easy for patients to understand.

The diagram is a valuable diagnostic tool because it clearly illustrates the locations of key anatomical structures, such as the patellar ligament, medial tibial plateau, and femoral condyles. This helps healthcare professionals identify injury sites, assess stability, and develop targeted rehabilitation or surgical plans, ensuring more effective treatment strategies.
