Condyle
Definition:

Intercondylar
Definition:
(a.) Alt. of Intercondyloid
Example Sentences:

(4) An organized approach includes inspection of the suprapatellar pouch, the articular surfaces of the patella, the medial and lateral compartments of the knee and the intercondylar area.
(5) The presented case of an avulsion fracture of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus from the intercondylar eminence illustrates the actual possibilities of arthroscopic surgery.
(6) All patients showed improvement after 4 weeks' treatment on either drug and of 12 parameters measured only two showed a statistically significant favour to phenylbutazone (intermalleolar straddle and intercondylar distance; both when pain first appeared).
(7) In those cases sometimes a synovial tumor in the intercondylar notch was excised.
(8) In addition to traditional medial transfer of the tibial tuberosity, lateral release, and medial joint capsule duplication, vastus medialis transposition and deepening of the intercondylar sulcus on the proximal joint surface of the femur were done.
