Synarthrosis
immoveable joint
amphiarthrosis
semimoveable joint
diarthrosis
moveable joint
Fibrous joints
fibrous CT joins the bones
no joint cavity present
most are immoveable
Cartilaginous joints
no cavity present
cartilage joins bones
some synarthrosis or amphiarthrosis
Synovial Joints
bone seperated by fluid filled joint cavity
-all diarthroses
Sutures (Fibrous)
bones of the skull-very short CT Fibers
synostosis
when growth is finished, the intramembranous ossification is completed and all of the CT is replaced by bone
Syndesmoses (Fibrous)
-bones joined by a ligament or sheet of dense regular CT
-distal articulations of the tibia and fibula and the joing along the length of the radius and ulna
Gomphoses
-joint between tooth and mandible or maxilla
Synchondroses
bones joined by a plate of hyaline cartilage
Symphyses
surface of each bone is covered in hyaline cartilage, between these layers is a pad of resilient fibrocartilage
3 types of reinforcing ligaments
-thickened areas of fibrous capsule
-seperate ligaments inside or outside of capsule
Three major factors of stability
-fit of articulation surfaces
-ligaments
-muscle tone
plane joints
gliding, nonaxial
hinge joints
uiniaxial angular
pivot joints
uniaxial rotation
condyloid joints
biaxial angular
saddle joints
biaxial angular
ball and socket joint
multiaxial angular and rotation
Sprains
-ligaments reinforcing joint are stretched/torn
-lumbar region of spine, ankle, and knee are most common sprain sites
Cartilage Injuries
-meniscus of knee most commonly torn
-cartilage is avascular, so normally stays torn
Dislocations
-bones forced out of alignment
-usually accompanied by sprains, inflammation, joint immobilization
-reduced: placed back in alignment
repeat dislocations occur because tendons and ligaments have been stretched
Bursitis
inflamation of bursa and is usually caused by a blow/friction
Tendonitis
inflammation of tendon sheaths, usually caused by overuse
Osteoarthritis
-most common type of chronic arthritis
-"wear and tear"
-cartilage that lines the joints is slowly destroyed
-exposed bone can start to form bony spurs that can restrict joint movement
-slow, irreversible disease
Rheumatoid arthritis
-autoimmune disease, with the body attacking the tissue of the joint creating inflammation
-acute pain --> remision
Gouty Arthritis
-caused by buildup of uric acid in joints
-uric acid crystals are deposited in soft tissue of joint, leads to inflamation
-left untreated bones may fuse together
