Anatomia microscópica e ultraestrutura do joelho da paca (Cuniculus paca Linnaeus, 1766)

Abstract: RESUMO: A paca (Cuniculus paca), um dos maiores roedores da fauna brasileira, possui características inerentes à sua espécie que podem contribuir como uma nova opção de animal experimental; assim, considerando-se que há crescente busca por modelos experimentais apropriados para ortopedia e pesquisas cirúrgicas, foram analisados e descritos em detalhes a anatomia microscópica e ultraestrutural do joelho desse roedor. Os ligamentos colaterais são constituídos por feixes de fibras colágenas arranjadas paralelamen… Show more

“…Therefore, the histological findings of the agouti patellar, collateral and cruciate ligaments revealed aspects consistent with their functional performance, in addition to structurally similar to the paca (Silva et al, 2017), which expands the knowledge of this structure in agouti, as well as gives rise to more in‐depth studies on the dynamics of this articulation.…”

“…There is differentiation between the cranial and caudal cruciate ligaments. Although they have loose connective tissue, bundles of longitudinal collagen fibers and fibroblasts, as observed in rodents (Silva et al, 2017), in the agouti cranial cruciate ligament, whose action is to limit the cranial translation of the tibia (Christopher, Beetem, & Cook, 2013), the presence of waviness of the fibers is evident. However, in the caudal cruciate ligament, which limits the tibial caudal translation (Faria, Muzzi, Kawamoto, Curti, & Barros, 2012), there is a higher concentration of loose connective tissue and less quantity of connective tissue undulations in the tissue.…”
