inferior gluteal nerve injury

cs? actions lost? clinical?

actions lost: none

clinical: gait deviation - lean back to compensate for decreased hip extension
ligamentum flavum

where located? function?
elastic bands that connect lamina, and they extend to capsule of facet joints

function: restores spinal column to a neutral position after it has been flexed
articulation of vertebral arches (facet joints)

classification? type?
classification: diarthrodial

type: gliding
nucleus pulposus
soft, pulpy, highly elastic substance

it is a derivative of the notochord in the embryo
annulus fibrosus
concentric lamellae of collagen (fibrocartilage) FIBERS at the circumference of IVDs which run obliquely from one vertebra to another
membrana tectoria
upward continuation of posterior longitudinal ligament to the occipital bone
alar ligaments

location? function?
from dens to lateral margins of foramen magnum

check rotation and lateral flexion of head
costotransverse articulations

(between tubercle of rib and transverse process)

classification? type? ligaments?
classification: diarthrodial

type: gliding

costotransverse ligaments - join neck and tubercle of rib to transverse process
costovertebral articulations

(head of rib with demifacets of two adjacent vertebrae and IVD between them)

classification? type? ligaments?
classification: diarthrodial

type: gliding

ligament: radiate ligament - connect head of rib to the sides of bodies of 2 vertebrae and IVD between them
atlantooccipital joint

(superior articular facet of atlas with condyle of occipital bone)
classification? type? motion?
classification: diarthrodial

type: condyloid

motion: "yes" or nodding movement
atlantoaxial joint
(dens of axis and ring formed by anterior arch and transverse ligament of atlas)

classification? type? motion
classification: diarthrodial

type: pivot

motion: shake head "no"
cruciform ligament

1.
2.
1. transverse ligament - it is a ligament of the ATLAS which holds dens in contact with anterior arch of atlas

2. upper and lower bands
articulation of vertebral bodies

classification? type? ligaments? what makes up IVD?
classification: amphiarthrodial

type: symphisis

ligaments: anterior and posterior longitudinal ligaments

IVD: AF and nucleus pulposus
anterior longitudinal ligament

location? function?
Strong, broad, fibrous band,
runs down anterior surface of bodies of vertebrae and IVD's

prevent hyperextension of vertebral column
posterior longitudinal ligament

location? function?
runs down posterior surface of vertebral bodies and IVD's

prevents hyperflexion of vertebral column
