Based on our studies we suggest that the term articulation femoropatellaris should be introduced in the new anatomic terminology, because of the importance of this entity in the function and pathology of the knee joint. In order to indicate that the condylar surfaces, having a different function are separated from the patellar surface of the femur, the term "linea condylopatellaris medialis and linea condylopatellaris lateralis" should be introduced in the anatomical terminology. The term "nodus lymphoideus" should be changed to nodus lymphaticus because the adjective lymphaticus means belonging to the node in question while the adjective lymphoideus means "similar", which is not correct.
