16. Bursae : is a small fluid-filled sac lined by synovial membrane with an inner capillary layer of viscous synovial fluid (similar in consistency to that of a raw egg white). (med-mu.com)
2. Synovitis of the joint may result in a large amount of fluid accumulation after injury to the synovial membrane due to trauma or overexertion, resulting in increased pressure in the joint, leading to joint pain, swelling, pressure pain, and a frictional sound. (zmindcn.com)
These are flexible joints , characterized by the presence of synovial bags, which contain synovial fluid or synovia, which prevents the wear caused by friction. (allthematters.com)
Tissues in your Achilles Tendon release a thin lubricating liquid (synovial fluid) that helps the tendon glide smoothly while in motion. (aidmyachilles.com)
In a healthy elbow, this membrane makes a small amount of fluid that lubricates the cartilage and eliminates almost any friction as you bend and rotate your arm. (aaos.org)
While the knees are hinge joints, permitting the flexion and extension of the lower leg relative to the upper leg, the articulation of the knees is such as to allow rotational movement as well. (saveourbones.com)

The knee is one of the more complex flexion joints in the body, carrying almost all of the body weight. (zmindcn.com)
The movement of the body is produced from the communication between the ends of the involved bones, carried out by the synovial joints. (allthematters.com)
They can also be structurally- grouped according to the type of tissue -binding them at their junctions such as fibrous, carti-laginous, and synovial joints. (pharmacy180.com)
Synovial membrane lines the interior of the capsule and the non-articular surfaces of the joint, clothes the ligament of the head of the femur and is reflected over the retinacular fibres and the femoral neck as far as the head. (pediagenosis.com)
The capsule ismade up of two layers: a fibrous membrane on the outside and a synovial membrane inside. (present5.com)
In some places the fibrous membrane is thickened by ligaments, which strengthen the capsule. (present5.com)
The outer region is well-vascularized from capillaries branching off the fibrous capsule and synovial membrane. (medscape.com)
The diffuse type demonstrates more extensive involvement of the synovial membrane and capsule while the local form is less aggressive and is being confined to a distinct area of the synovium [3] . (jocr.co.in)
Ligaments4

The elbow joint is the convergence of bones, ligaments and muscles that enable the flexion, extension, pronation, and supination of the arm. (genesisortho.com)
Syndesmoses are connections created by ligaments and interosseous membranes. (present5.com)
Some joint have intracapsular ligaments inside the joint cavity, which are covered by the synovial membrane (e. g. the cruciate ligaments of the knee joint). (present5.com)
Tendons4
These tendons are essential for transmitting muscular forces during knee flexion and extension. (vannistrigelli.com)
Without this membrane, the Achilles Tendon is more likely to injury than other tendons. (aidmyachilles.com)

Degrees of flexion3
Normal range of motion (ROM) for the knee is 0 to 140 degrees of flexion and 0 degrees for full extension. (hemaware.org)
A loss of 2 to 5 degrees of flexion is manageable, but a 7- to 10-degree loss can cause limping or trouble negotiating stairs. (hemaware.org)
The knee range of motion was limited to 15 degrees of flexion and 20 degrees of extension. (hippokratia.gr)
Cavity2
The anterior segment of the cavity corresponds to a synovial recess communicating with the ankle joint through the linear opening. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
The posterior part of the semilunar cavity is smaller and occupied by a reddish synovial fringe that originates only from the peroneal surface and descends into the ankle joint between the fibula and the lateral talar surface ( Figs. 4.1 and 4.6 ). (musculoskeletalkey.com)
Lubricate1
Typically tendon sheaths are a special membranes which helps lubricate and protect the tendon while also providing nutrition. (aidmyachilles.com)
Ligament2
There is no sharply marked demarcation between the interosseous membrane and the interosseous ligament which connects the distal ends of the tibia and fibula-the one, indeed, may be said to run into the other. (co.ma)
When they are longer, more movement is possible, for example, the interosseous membrane (similar to a ligament) that connects the ulna and radius. (pharmacy180.com)
Bones2
During flexion the sacral promontory moves anteriorly and inferiorly with the apex moving posteriorly, while the iliac bones approximate and the ischial tuberosities move apart. (brainkart.com)

Lameness4
Mean ± SD scores for lameness (A), joint flexion (B), and joint effusion (C) in horses that had undergone experimental induction of osteoarthritis in 1 middle carpal joint and a sham operation in the other middle carpal joint, followed by oral treatment with ASU extracts (1:2 [avocado-to-soybean] ratio mixed in 6 mL of molasses) or molasses (6 mL) alone (placebo treatment) once daily from days 0 to 70. (avma.org)

Hinge3
Formed by the distal humerus , proximal ulna , and proximal radius , the elbow is a hinge-type synovial joint that provides both stability and function. (medscape.com)
The hinge-like bending and straightening of the elbow ( flexion and extension ) happens at the articulation ("joint") between the humerus and the ulna. (wikidoc.org)
As an example, the hinge joint in our knee allows flexion and also expansion, allowing us to walk and climb stairways. (sangamimmigration.com)

Stability1
The muscle action of the quadriceps is flexion of the hip, extension of the knee, and provides patellar stability. (thebodyfixblueprint.com)
Distal3
Towards the distal end of the leg the distance between the tibia and the fibula rapidly diminishes, and consequently the width of the interosseous membrane is correspondingly reduced, and it is tense throughout its entire length. (co.ma)
In the distal part of the membrane there is a small opening for the passage of the perforating peroneal vessels. (co.ma)
The lower segment of the interosseous membrane also participates in the stabilization of the distal fibular shaft. (musculoskeletalkey.com)
