The scalene tubercle [tuberculum scalaeni (Lisfrancie), BNA] is an anatomical structure in the thoracolumbar spine, which is one of the most important elements in the functioning of joints and muscles. This tubercle is located between the two scalene muscles, which connect to the anterior cruciate ligament and interosseous ligament of the ankle joint. It plays an important role in stabilizing the ankle joints and preventing sprains and fractures in the ankle.
The tubercle plays a key role in maintaining the health of the entire system. This anatomical structure is responsible for balance and coordination of movements when walking or other loads on the lower limbs. Proper functioning of the tubercle ensures the effective transfer of force from other muscles to the bones and cartilage of the ankle area.
The scalene tubercle is also important in diagnosing injuries in this area, especially with fractures and ruptures of the ankle ligaments. But you shouldn't ignore these problems, which can lead to
Scalene tubercles [tubercula epicondyli, bna.] are special formations that are found both in the anatomy of humans and in the animal world. Their etymology comes from the Latin word tuberculum (tubercle). These are short tuberculate projections on the lateral surfaces of the epiconidial ridges of the long head of the biceps brachii muscle in mammals. In humans, the tubercles are found in the anterior part of both muscles on the outer and inner sides.
