INFOGRAPHIC FOR VET SUISSE
About
This infographic illustrates the anatomy and injury mechanisms of the canine knee joint, focusing on the rupture of the cranial cruciate ligament (CCL). The central 3D view of the joint highlights the torn ligament in red, while sectional diagrams provide detailed perspectives of femur and tibia structures in both normal and injured states. The visual comparison shows how a rupture affects joint stability, with additional diagrams explaining tibial rotation in cases of isolated cruciate ligament rupture and combined cruciate and collateral ligament injuries. The infographic serves to clarify both the structural relationships within the joint and the biomechanical consequences of ligament damage.
