Describe different areas of long bones |
proximal epiphysis/physis/metaphysis/diaphysis/distal etc etc |
|
|
Two types of bone tissue |
cortex and cancellous |
|
|
Trends of cortical and cancellous bone tissues in long and flat bones. |
Long have abundant cortical bone in diaphysis and abundant cancellous bone in metaphysis.
Flat: always cancellous >>> cortical |
|
|
___ cartilage is ___ type and has an interesting feature in how it receives nutrients. |
Articular cartilage = hyaline type Anerual and avascular => nourished by synovial fluid so activity is important |
|
|
Six types of synovial joints |
plane joints hinge joints condyloid saddle ball and socket pivot |
|
|
Plane joints |
numerous small for gliding/sliding but movement limited by tight capsules: acromioclavicular joint |
|
|
Hinge joints |
one axis of movement articular capsules thin with collateral ligaments
knee and elbow |
|
|
condyloid joint |
biaxial for flex/exten and ab/adduction and circumduction
phalanges |
|
|
saddle joint |
biaxial with opposing concavity and convexity: 1st digit metacarpal to trapezium |
|
|
ball and socket joint |
multiaxial: flex/ext, ab/adduction, rotation, circumduction
shoulder and hip |
|
|
pivot joint |
uniaxial: rounded process articulates with ring/sleeve
C1 and C2 with the dens process |
|
|

|
|
Describe the deformity types of a broken bone on the coronal plane |
Apex lateral /> varus Apex medial /< valgus |
|
|
Describe the deformity types of a broken bone on the transverse plane |
