|
bones are directly ossified w/o any pre-existing cartilage (ex: skull bones and clavicle are formed directly from mesenchyme)
|
|
Endochondral ossification
|

|
|
What is the process of Intramembranous ossification
|
1. An ossification center appears in the fibrous connective tissue and membrane.
2. Bone matrix (osteoid) is secreted w/in the fibrous membrane 3. Woven bone and periosteum form. 4. Bone collar of compact bone forms and red marrow appears. |
|
What is the process of enchondral ossification?
|
1 Formation of bone collar around hyaline cartilage model
2. Cavitation of the hyaline cartilage 3. invasion of the cavities by the periosteal bud and spongy bone formation 4. Formation of the medullary cavities and secondary ossification centers 5. Ossification of the epiphysis (hyaline cartilage remains in epiphysial plate and articular cartilages (surfaces). |
|
Epiphysial plates and ossification of them
|
cartilage cells form stacks--chondroblasts are at the top and divide quickly pushing epiphysis away from diaphysis--lengthens bone
Bones lengthen by growth of epiphyseal plates-cartilage is replaced with bone tissue Later on: cartilage stops growing and is replaced by bone tissues; diaphysis and epiphysis fuse |

|
lumbar rib
|
A rib articulating with the transverse process of the first lumbar vertebra;
|
|
sacral hiatus
|
a normally occurring gap at the lower end of the sacrum, exposing the vertebral canal, due to failure of the laminae of the last sacral segment to coalesce. It is closed by the sacrococcygeal ligament and provides cannular access to the sacral epidural space for administration of anesthetics (caudal nerve blocks).
|
|

|
in intercostal space--intercostl n.s can be anesthetized during painful conditions (ex: fracture of rib, shingles)

Isolated injury, causes weakness of elbow flexion & supination of the forearm. A discrete sensory disturbance is present on the radial side of the forearm. The nerve is usually involved in an upper brachial plexus palsy |
