|
fibrocartilage (Fibrocartilaginous entheses).
epiphysis |

|
|
Fibrous entheses or indirect attachment may be subdivided into two categories :
|
periosteal and bony.
|
|
Fibrous Periosteal
|
the tendon attaches to the periosteum, which thus indirectly attaches the tendon to the bone. Fibrous periosteal attachments spread the force transmitted by the tendon over a broad area.
|
|
Bony
|
the periosteum is absent and the tendon inserts directly into the bone itself.
|
|
In the limbs, fibrous entheses are characteristic of tendons that attach to_____, whereas
fibrocartilaginous insertions are typical of _______. |
diaphyses
epiphyses |
|
List 4 reasons why is it important fibrous entheses and fibrocartilaginous enthesis attached to different sites:
|
1. Fibrocartilage is more resistant to stress. Bone is not, it either breaks or tare a tendon.
2. The attachments look different. 3. Epiphyses at smooth areas attach, smooth interaction for fibrocartilage. 4. Indirect, is around a rougher area, fibrous entheses. The 2 different attachemnt play different role during actions . Fibrous /indirect can resist without tearing apart. IN the direct the angle of collagen fibers changes. |
|

|
In ligaments that can heal such as the MCL, the process is divided into 3 stages of healing:
|

|
|
Define Remodeling, in healing process:
|
• alignment of the new matrix,
