Bones of the upper and lower extremities and the pectoral and pelvic griddles that connect the limbs to the trunk |
Appendicular Skeleton (Includes) |
|
On each side, a clavicle and scapula position the shoulder joint, upper limb, and provide a base for arm movement and muscles. |
Pectoral Gridle |
|
* S-Shaped * Parts: sternal and acromial end |
Clavicle (Collar Bone) |
|
*Structures: body, superior body,medial border,lateral border, superior angle, inferior angle, lateral angle, glenoid cavity, subscapular fossa, coracoid process, acromion process
|
Scapula (shoulder blade) |
|
includes bones of the arms, forearms, wrist, and hands |
Upper Limbs |
|
*Structure: greater tubercle, lesser tubercle, intertubercular groove, anatomical neck, surgical neck, shaft,deltoid tuberosity,radial groove, medial and lateral epicondlyes, condlye, trochlea, coroniod fossa, olecranon fossa, capitulum, radial fossa
|
Humerus |
|
Structures: olecranon, trochlear notch, coronoid process, redial notch, head, styloid process, articular cartilage. |
Ulna |
|
*parallels the ulna *Structures: head, neck, radial tuberosity, ulnar notch *Proximal radiolnar articulation permits rotation |
Radius |
|
movement when radius rolls across the rounded surface of the ulnar head. |
Pronation |
|
reverse movement of pronation, radius returns to its anatomical position. |
Supination |
|
*form two rows * Four proximal carpal and four distal carpal bones. *The distal row articulates with the five metacarpal bones |
Carpal bones of the wrist or carpus
|
|
*14 Phalanges (finger bones) *Four of the fingers contain three pyalanges; the pollex ( thumb) has only two. |
Hand |
|
*more massive than those of the pectoral girdle(high stress involved in weight bearing and locomotion) *consist of two coxae; each coxa forms through the fusion of the lilim, an ischium, and a pubis.
|
Pelvic Girdle
|
|
structures:lunate surface, arcuate line, iliac crest, anterior superior and anterior inferior iliac spines, posterior superior and posterior inferior iliac spines, greater sciatic notch, ischial spine, lesser sciatic notch, ischial tuberosity, ramus, inferior ramus, superior ramus, pubic crest, obturator foramen, iliac fossa, auricular surface, iliac tuberosity |
Pelvic Girdle
|
|
limits movement between the pubic bones of the left and right coxae |
Pubic Symphysis |
|
Coxae, sacrum, and Coccyx |
The pelvis consist of.. |
|
*false (greater) pelvis *true( lesser) pelvis |
Pelvic subdivisions
|
|
Blade like portions of the ilium superior to the arcuate line |
False (greater) Pelvis
|
|
Structures inferior to the arcuate line: inferior portions of the ilium, pubic bones, ischia, sacrum and coccyx |
True ( lesser) Pelvis |
|
Bone edge of the true pelvis |
Pelvic Brim |
|
Enclosed space if the true pelvis |
Pelvic inlet |
|
Opening bounded by the inferior edges of the pelvis |
Pelvic Outlet |
|
region bounded by the coccyx, ischial tuberosities, inferior border of the pubic symphysis |
Perineum |
|
*adaptions for childbearing *related to support weight of fetus and uterus *passage of newborn through the pelvic outlet |
Female Pelvis |
|
*consist of the femur, patella, tibia, fibular, bones of the ankle and foot
|
Lower Limbs |
|
*Longest bone in the body *articulates with the tibia at the knee joint
|
Femur |
|
*Largest sesamoid bone *areas: body, apex *Structures: Medial and lateral facets |
Patella or Kneecap |
|
*Medial bone of the leg
|
Tibia |
|
*parallels the tibia laterally
|
Fibula |
|
Consist of seven tarsal bones ( talus, calaneus, cubiod, navicular, three cuneiform bones) |
Tarsus or Ankle |
|
basic organizational pattern of the five metatarsal bones and fourteen phalanges of the foot resembles that of the hand. |
Foot |
|
When normal arches do not form, cannot walk long distances without discomfort. |
Flat Feet |
|
Inherited developmental abnormality; feet are turned medially and inverted. |
Congenital talipes equinvarus (clubfoot) |
|
All of the toes have three phalanges except for the hallux, which has two |
Foot |
|
*Structures: head, shaft, lateral malleouls |
Fibula |
|
*Structures: Medial and lateral tibial condyles, anterior crest, medial malleous |
Tibia |
|
*Structures: head, fovea capitis, neck, shaft, greater and lesser trochanter, intertrochanteric line, intertrochanteric crest, linea aspera, medial and lateral epicondyles, intercondyar fossa, patellar surface |
Femur |
|
*more massive that upper limbs because the lower limbs transfer the weight of the body to the ground |
Lower Limbs |
|
*ilium is largest coxal bone. *inside the acetabulum, the ilium is fused to the ischium (posteriorly) and the pubis (anterior)
|
Pelvic Girdle |
|
* The greater and lessor tubercles are important sites of muscle attachment.
|
Humerus |
|
*Articulates with the radius and ulna, the bones of the foramen, at the elbow (olecranal or humeroulnar) joint. |
Humerus |
|
*Articulates with the humerus at the shoulder(glenohumeral or scapulohumeral) joint.
|
Scapula (shoulder blade) |
|
*The Scapular spine crosses the scapular body |
Scapula (shoulder blade) |
|
* Both the coracoid and acromion processes are attached to ligaments and tendons. |
