Two types of cartilaginous joints

Sympheses and synchondroses


- Disc of fibrocartilage (intervertebral discs and pubic symphysis)


- Hyaline cartilage (epiphyseal plate; also costal w/ 1st rib)

Describe diagram of synovial joint

Two-layered membrane of articular (joint) cartilage on top and bottom


Right and left sides are synovial membrane which produces synovial fluid (reduces friction)


Articular capsule usu reinforced w/ bursae & ligaments


Fibrocartilage pads (articular discs) may be there


Articular capsule is techn. on L and R sides

What kind of joint has all 6 types (ball and socket, plane, hinge, pivot, condylar, saddle)

Synovial

Hip joint is what kind of joint

Ball and socket



Moement of hip joint is limited by what

Deep socket


Strong reinforcing ligaments


These account for its exceptional stability

Knee joint is what kind of joint

Hinge

Shoulder joint is AKA?

Glenohumeral joint

Where is the temporomandibular joint located

Anterior to the ear (mandible to the temporal)

Bursitis

Inflammation of the patellar bursa (from hard blow to the knee)

Sprain

Ligaments that reinforce a joint are damaged by over stretching / torn away


Heals slowly bc of its poor blood supply (lig and tend are dense CT)



Dislocations


Usu accompanied by what

Bones are forced out of their normal position in the joint cavity


Torn or stressed ligaments, inflammation


"reduction" returns the bone to its orig position

Bursae

Flattened, fibrous sacs lined w/ synovial membranes & containing synovial fluid


Common where ligaments, muscles, skin, tendons, or bones rub together

Tendon sheath

Elongated bursa, wraps around a tendon

Stability of synovial joint determined by

Articular surfaces and ligaments

Muscle tone accomplished by

Muscle tendons acting as stabilizing factors, and they're kept tight by muscle tone

Nonaxial means what

Joint has slipping / gliding movements only

Uniaxial

Movement in one plane; bi and multi

2 muscle attachments across a joint


movement is described how

Origin (attachment to immovable bone)


Insertion (attachment to movable bone)


Along transverse, frontal, or sagittal planes

Cartilage injury

Snap and pop of overstressed cartilage

Subluxation

Partial dislocation of a joint
