Lateral retinaculum

id: lateral-retinaculum-201-9711813
title: Lateral retinaculum
text: The lateral retinaculum is the fibrous tissue on the lateral (outer) side of the kneecap (patella). The kneecap has both a medial and a lateral retinaculum, and these help to support the kneecap in its position in relation to the femur bone underneath it. The lateral retinaculum is an extension of the fibrous 'aponeurosis' of the vastus lateralis muscle.
