Voorbeelden van trochlea

  • It loops through a pulley-like structure (the trochlea of superior oblique) and inserts into the sclera on the posterotemporal surface of the eyeball.

  • It composed of two bones, the humerus and ulna, and is the junction between the trochlear notch of ulna and the trochlea of humerus.

  • On the lateral side is commonly a tubercle called the peroneal trochlea, under which is a groove for the tendon of the peroneus longus.

  • The superior oblique muscle ends in a tendon that passes through a fibrous loop, the trochlea, located anteriorly on the medial aspect of the orbit.

  • The trochlea has the capitulum located on its lateral side and the medial epicondyle on its medial.

  • Acquired cases that have active inflammation of the superior oblique tendon may benefit from local corticosteroid injections in the region of the trochlea.

  • Between the capitulum and the trochlea of the humerus is the capitulotrochlear groove.

  • The humerus also shares some features with extinct hominoids: a large medial epicondyle and a comparatively wide trochlea.

  • The trochlea is a ring-like apparatus of cartilage through which passes the tendon of the superior oblique muscle.

  • The groove running across the trochlea is, in most people, vertical on the anterior side but spirals off on the posterior side.

  • This prevents hyperextension and forms a hinge joint with the trochlea of the humerus.

  • One form of patellofemoral syndrome involves a tissue-related problem that creates pressure and irritation in the knee between the patella and the trochlea (patellar compression syndrome), which causes pain.

  • Owing to the obliquity of the trochlea of the humerus, this movement does not take place in the antero-posterior plane of the body of the humerus.

  • The body of the superior oblique muscle is located "behind" the eyeball, but the tendon (which is redirected by the trochlea) approaches the eyeball from the "front".
