The mechanical events leading to locking of the human knee joint are well described in the literature, but there appears to be little information on the source of afferent feedback needed to monitor the locked joint. Human fetal popliteus muscles were studied by histological and graphic reconstruction techniques. The results showed that the muscle contained many muscle spindles. The arrangement of these receptors into complex and tandem forms seems to support the view that the popliteus muscle is capable of subserving kinaesthesia.
导致人类膝关节锁定的力学事件在文献中有详细描述，但关于监测锁定关节所需传入反馈的来源似乎信息很少。通过组织学和图形重建技术对人类胎儿的腘肌进行了研究。结果表明，该肌肉含有许多肌梭。这些感受器排列成复杂和串联形式，似乎支持了腘肌能够提供动觉的观点。
