Fig. 1F. —Cadaveric specimen of skeletally mature knee. Posterior photograph shows attachments of popliteus muscle (P), which has been slightly moved from its tibial origin. Note its insertion on apex of head of fibula via popliteofibular ligament (PF) and on dorsolateral aspect of lateral meniscus via superior popliteomeniscal fascicle (spm). Weaker part of joint capsule has been removed to show inferior border of posterior aspect of medial (arcuate) limb of arcuate ligament (aA). Lateral (upright) limb of arcuate ligament (uA) is still covered by fabellofibular ligament (fF). Note wide gap between joint capsule marked by course of lateral (upright) limb of arcuate ligament (uA) and fibular collateral ligament (FC) which, in turn, has been uncovered from tendon of biceps femoris muscle (B). Small bursa (arrowheads) usually separates fibular collateral ligament (FC) from tendon of biceps femoris muscle (B).
