180. The Internal Lateral Ligament, Ligamentum 

 laterals internum, of the Right Knee-Joiiit. 



The broad and strong internal lateral ligament is attached 

 above to inner tuberosity of the femur and reaches 2 3" down below 

 the inner condyle of the tibia, being attached to its internal border. 



In the figure the fibrous capsule, which is very thin toward the 

 inner side, its relation to the tendon of the quadriceps extensor muscle, 

 its origin above the condyles of the femur, and its insertion at the rough 

 margin of the condyles of the tibia, are represented.
