A schematic anatomical illustration of the human knee in full extension depicts the rectilinear “extension gap” between the distal femur and proximal tibia, with collateral ligaments shown under tension. This synovial hinge joint is part of the lower limb within the musculoskeletal system of Homo sapiens (human). In orthopedics and arthroplasty, the extension gap (EG) is used for soft‑tissue balancing and bone resection planning during total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Visible structures include the femoral condyles, tibial plateau, and collateral ligament envelopes.
