The word
"condyle" refers to a rounded knob or prominence on a bone that connects with another bone to form a joint.

Related terms: Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD), osteochondrosis of
humeral condyle, osteoarthritis, osteochondrodysplasia, hip dysplasia (commonly misspelled as displasia or displaysia), fragmented medial coronoid process, ununited anconeal process, incongruent elbow
Interestingly, in Labrador Retrievers, OCD tends to occur in the medial femoral
condyle of the knee rather than the lateral.
«During flexion, the contact patch of the lateral
femoral condyle shifted anteriorly with lateral heel wedging.
The gastrocnemius musculature crosses both the knee and ankle joint, and the medial and lateral heads of the muscle originate on the medial and
lateral condyle of the femur, respectively.
Semimembranosus (medial)-- originates on the ischiac tuberosity of the pelvis and inserts on the postero - medial surface of the medial
tibial condyle.
But it has a simple and clear rationale: elbow dysplasia, and osteochondrosis of the humeral
condyle in particular, is a highly heritable disease.
«We found that lateral heel wedging had a small but significant effect on the location of lateral
condyle contact.»
It has two heads — both beginning at the femur — one from the outer and the other from the
inner condyle.
Participants rolled from the lateral tibial
condyle upward to a position superior to the greater trochanter and back to the starting position.
The adductor magnus originates on the lower portion of the ischial tuberosity and is inserted onto the tubercle below the medial
condyle on the tibia.
Look where I've aligned the femoral
condyle at the knee here and the variation.
This would include removing the caudal zygomatic arch, mandibular coronoid process, and
mandibular condyle.
Elbow dysplasia is a combination of four developmental abnormalities: an ununited anconeal process, osteochondrodystrophy (OCD) of the distal
humoral condyle, a fragmented medial coronoid process, and elbow incongruity.
Complication rate, outcome, and risk factors associated with surgical repair of fractures of the lateral aspect of the
humeral condyle in dogs.
Treatment of a full - thickness articular cartilage defect in the
femoral condyle of an athlete with autologous bone - marrow stromal cells.
From there it travels down and inserts onto the medial
condyle of the tibia.
Since it inserts on the lateral
tibial condyle, this insertion point connects the gluteus maximus with the lower limb, below the knee.
The medial and lateral heads of the gastrocnemius originate on the medial and
lateral condyle of the femur, respectively.
The ACL was fine, but her lateral meniscus needed repair and she had a quarter - sized hole in her lateral femoral
condyle, a bone at the end of the femur.
Depth - dependent similarities of equine and human osteochondral tissue from the femoral
condyles.
Comparative study of depth - dependent characteristics of equine and human osteochondral tissue from the medial and lateral femoral
condyles.
The medial gastrocnemius originates from the popliteal surface of the femur, while the lateral gastrocnemius originates from the posterolateral aspect of the femoral
condyle (Doral et al. 2010).
They originate from the medial and lateral
condyle of the femur, or in the case of the soleus from the head of the fibula, and medial third of the tibia.
Origin: femur (medial and lateral head of the femoral
condyles), capsule of the knee joint.
The vectors were drawn beginning at the greater trochanter of the dominant leg to the lateral femoral
condyle of the same leg and the contralateral medial femoral condyle.
Biceps femoris long head (lateral)-- originates on the ischiac tuberosity of the pelvis and inserts on the lateral
condyle of the tibia and head of the fibula.
Gracilis: originates on the symphysis pubis; inserts on the medial surface of the tibia, below the condyle
In addition, markers were added to the contralateral medial femoral
condyle and medial malleolus.
Markers were placed on anatomical landmarks on the dominant side of the body on the acromion process, greater trochanter, lateral femoral
condyle, and lateral malleolus.
It then travels down and inserts on the lateral
condyle of the tibia.
The cranial cruciate ligament originates between
the condyles (knuckles) of the femur and passes diagonally forwards and medially (towards the inside of the joint) to attach on the upper surface of the tibia.
Following cruciate rupture, the medial meniscus frequently becomes damaged as a result of being crushed between the joint surfaces as the tibia shifts forwards underneath the femoral
condyle.
These abnormalities typically develop between four and eight months of age and include osteochondritis dessicans (OCD) of the medial humeral
condyle, ununited anconeal process (UAP), joint incongruency, and fragmentation of the medial coronoid process (FCP).
This involves a medial approach to the elbow joint on the opposite side to surgery for UAP, and both the medial coronoid process of the ulna and the medial
condyle of the humerus must be examined carefully.
Additionally — in cranio - caudal radiographs osteophytes are most easily seen on the distal, medial part of the humeral
condyle (f) and the medial part of the coronoid process (g).
Elbow disease is a general term to denote joint problems in growing dogs and it includes ununited anconeal process (UAP), fragmented medial coronoid process (FCP) and osteochondrosis of the medial
condyle of the humerus (OCD).
Three different problems can cause elbow dysplasia - an ununited anconeal process (UAP), a fragmented coronoid process (FCP), or osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the medial humeral
condyle.
Ebow — the medial aspect of the humeral
condyle, fragmented medial coronoid process and ununited anconeal process
The most common fracture sites included the femur (68 %), radius / ulna or tibia / fibula (23 %) and humeral
condyle (3 %).
The medical terms are horrible: osteochondrosis of the medial humeral
condyle or ununited anconeal process, fragmented medial choroid process.
Elbow Dysplasia — OCD of the medial humeral
condyle, fractured coronoid process.
The most common locations for OCD are the caudal humeral head (shoulder), lateral femoral
condyle (knee), the medial humeral condyle (elbow) and the trochlear ridges of the talus (ankle or hock).
The patella will lie just above the medial
condyle of the tibia and a space between the patellar ligament and the femur can be palpated.
Musculoskeletal — Elbow dysplasia, suspected incomplete ossification of the humeral
condyles, complex fractures
OCD of the elbow occurs on the medial
condyle of the distal humerus.
