Degenerative changes were also noted in the right knee involving the medial compartment.

A large amount of Grade 4 chondromalacia of the medial compartment was found.

For example, a dog with only medial compartment disease may only receive a partial replacement.

The medial compartment contains vasculature including the femoral artery and vein.

Medial compartment:

Knee bracing for medial compartment Osteoarthritis: Effects on proprioception and postural stability.

The medial meniscus and the medial compartment are more commonly affected than the lateral compartment.

It separates the anterior compartment of the thigh from the medial compartment of the thigh.

He had osteophytes in the medial compartment and quite likely one of these osteophytes became loose after one of those injuries.

Patients with medial compartment arthritis can also demonstrate a varus thrust gait, so it is important to differentiate between the two causes using plain radiographs.

He noted that x-rays showed a moderate degree of arthritis of the medial compartment and the presence of loose cartilaginous bodies.

Making sure the tibia remains in neutral rotation, a varus force is used to ensure there is no medial compartment gapping of the knee.

Perforating arteries - perforate the adductor magnus muscle to the posterior and medial compartments of the thigh.

It is sometimes considered part of the medial compartment of thigh, and sometimes considered part of the gluteal region.

This is also known as the medial compartment of the thigh that consists of the adductor muscles of the hip or the groin muscles.

The two exceptions to this is gracilis, a flexors, which belongs to the medial compartment and sartorius, a flexor, in the anterior compartment.

It courses between the anterior compartment of thigh and the medial compartment of thigh, and has the following boundaries:

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) should be intact, although this is debated by clinicians for patients that need a medial compartment replacement.

In a follow-up report dated May 22, 1996, the orthopaedic surgeon commented that the arthroscopy showed significant medial compartment osteoarthritis plus medial meniscus tear.

The internal iliac artery supplies the walls and viscera of the pelvis, the buttock, the reproductive organs, and the medial compartment of the thigh.

"The knee can be divided into three compartments, the medial compartment, the lateral compartment and the patellofemoral compartment," said Dr. Halpern.

Medial compartment muscles are adductor magnus, adductor longus and adductor brevis, and also gracilis.

The medial compartment of thigh is one of the fascial compartments of the leg and contains the hip adductor muscles and the gracilis muscle.

As part of the medial compartment of the thigh, the adductor longus is innervated by the anterior division (sometimes the posterior division) of the obturator nerve.

The medial compartment of thigh contains the pectineus, external obturator, and the gracilis muscles, together with the four adductors - the longus, brevis, magnus and minimus.
