Thanks, Michael. for your explanation. Appreciated.
Michael Barnett Jul 4, 2020:
Position in 3 dimensions I ran out of characters in my "agree".
The writer is indicating the location of the knee pain.
The interline is the interface between the femur and the tibial plateau. Facing the patient, this localizes the pain in the head to toe dimension. "Interne" translates "medial", which, in the context of knees, refers to the side of the knee from the knee midline to side of the knee closest to the other leg. Finally the writer localizes the pain in the antero-posterior dimension, specifying "anterior", putting it toward the front of the knee.

Almost invariably, interne = medial in English anatomical terms. (externe = lateral)

Look at the external anatomy, noting structures above and below the knee itself:
Patella
Patellar tendon
Quadriceps/Hamstring/Calf muscles
Medial and lateral joint lines.
Femur and Tibia
Tibial tuberosity

Thanks Liz!
agree Michael Barnett : It is very straightforward. It is shocking that only you and Liz get it. The interline is the interface between the femur and the tibial plateau. That localizes the position in the top-bottom dimension. "Interne" is medial, localizing the position lt-rt.
