Drag each label into the appropriate position to identify which joint is being described. Hip Inversion sprains produce damage to the lateral ligaments. Tibiofemoral joint Talocrural joint Knee Lateral forces likely to cause damage to the tibial collateral ligament, ACL, and medial meniscus Coxal joint Ankle Acetabular labrum increased the depth of the socket Intracapsular ligaments include the ACL and PCL Arterial damage entering the fovea capitis can result in necrosis
