Knee joint

Clean 2D anatomical illustration of the human knee joint as a synovial hinge-like bicondylar articulation. Show the distal femur above with paired rounded femoral condyles meeting the proximal tibia below with a relatively flat broad tibial plateau, and a small triangular patella positioned anteriorly. Bone ends are ivory-white with smooth pale or pale-blue articular cartilage covering the joint surfaces and a narrow joint space between them. The joint should have compact anatomical proportions and clear contours, in a simplified medical diagram style. It may be shown from the front, side, or as a simplified cutaway, with a simple capsule outline or pale fibrous ligaments indicated; crescent menisci may be included between femur and tibia. In side view, the fibula may be shown adjacent to the tibia.
