Проанализировать данные литературы о структурных и функуцональных особенностях фабеллы. Изучить форму, размер и частоту встречаемости сесамовидной кости у населения Республики Беларусь в зависимости от возраста и пола, установить морфометрические показатели фабеллы.</p></sec><sec><title>Материал и методы</title><p>Материал и методы. Материалом для настоящего исследования послужили данные, полученные при изучении результатов ультразвукового исследования и рентгенограмм в боковых проекуцях коленных суставов у 224 пациентов в возрасте от 27 до 86 лет.</p><p>B работе использованы следующие методы: рентгенологический, статистический, морфометрический, ультрасонография.</p></sec><sec><title>Результаты</title><p>Результаты. B ходе исследования установлено, что фабелла встречается в 22,7 % случаях с приблизительно одинаковой частотой у мужчин (51 %) и женщин (49 %). Одностороннее расположение чаще отмечалось слева в 59 % случаев, справа наблюдалось в 41 % случаев. Двустороннее положение отмечено в 4 % случаев.</p><p>Практическое значение работы обусловлено тем, что фабелла может быть вовлечена в различные патологические состояния, такие как синдром фабеллы, ее хондромаляция, сдавление малоберцового нерва, вывих, а также перелом фабеллы. Полученные данные об особенностях строения костно-суставного и капсульносвязочного аппаратов коленного сустава играют важную роль в установлении врачом правильного диагноза и выбора оптимальной тактики дальнейшего лечения диагностированных заболеваний изучаемой анатомической области.</p></sec></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><sec><title>Objective</title><p>Objective. Conduct an analysis of literary data on the structural and functional features of the fabella. To study the shape, size and frequency of occurrence of the sesamoid bone in the population of the Republic of Belarus, depending on age and gender, to establish morphometric indicators of the fabella.</p></sec><sec><title>Materials and methods</title><p>Materials and methods. The material for this study was data obtained from the study of ultrasound and radiographs in lateral projections of the knee joints in 224 patients aged 27 to 86 years.</p></sec><sec><title>Results</title><p>Results. The study found that fabella occurs in 22,7 % of cases, with approximately the same frequency in men (51 %) and women (49 %). Unilateral location was more common on the left in 59 % of cases, on the right was observed in 41 % of cases. Bilateral position was noted in 4 % of cases.</p><p>The practical significance of the work is due to the fact that the fabella can be involved in various pathological conditions, such as fabella syndrome, chondromalacia, compression of the peroneal nerve, dislocation, and fabella fracture. The obtained data on the structural features of the osteoarticular and capsular-ligamentous apparatus of the knee joint play an important role in the doctor establishing the correct diagnosis and choosing the optimal tactics for further treatment of diagnosed diseases of the anatomical region being studied.</p></sec></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>сесамовидная кость</kwd><kwd>фабелла</kwd><kwd>коленный сустав</kwd><kwd>подколенные связки</kwd><kwd>топография фабеллы</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>sesamoid bone</kwd><kwd>fabella</kwd><kwd>knee joint</kwd><kwd>popliteal ligaments</kwd><kwd>fabella topography</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Duncan W., Dahm D.
