General Skeleton
|
Adapted for: weight bearing
locomotion protection 206 Divisions: axial appendicular |
|
Skull
|
Cranial: enclose brain, mm attach
Facial: face, cavities for sense, opening for air and food, teeth, mm of face |
|
Cranium
|
Divided into: 1. cranial vault - superior, lateral, posterior
2. base - floor: a. anterior cranial fossa b. middle cranial fossa c. posterior cranial |
|
Skull Cavities
|
1. cranial cavity
2. smaller: inner ear, orbits, nasal (sinuses) 3. 85 passageways for - vessels, nerves, spinal cord |
|
Occipital Bone
|
Hypoglossal - 12
Ex Occipital Crest - ligamentum nuchae - secures vertebrae to our skull Nuchal - mm of neck and back |
|
Temporal Bone
|
Petrous Ridge
Jugular foramen - glossopharyngeal, vagus, accessory (9-11) Int. Acoustic - facial, vestibulocochlear (7 + 8) |
|
Sphenoid

Pterygoid - pterygoid mm
sella turcica: hypophyseal fossa - pituitary gland Superior orbital fissure - occulomotor, trochlear, abducens Foramen rotundum - maxillary branch of trigeminal Ovale- mandibular branch Spinosum - middle meningeal artery |
|
Ethmoid
|
Cribriform - filaments of 1
Crista Galli - falx cerebri - portion of dura mater Superior, middle nasal conchae Orbital plates |
|
Mandible
|

|
Special Parts of Skull
|
1. Nasal cavity
2. Paranasal Sinuses 3. Orbits 4. Hyoid bone |
|
Nasal Cavity
|
Roof - cribriform of ethmoid
Floor - palatine bone Lateral - nasal bones, conchae, perpendicular plates of palatine Superior, Inf, Middle meatuses: under conchae |
|
Paranasal Sinuses
|
Loc: frontal, ethmoid, sphenoid, maxillary
FCN: mucus warms, moistens, filters Lighten skull |
|
Orbits
|
Roof -lesser wing sphenoid, frontal
Lateral Wall - greater wing, zygomatic, Medial Wall - Sphenoid body, ethmoid, frontal proc. maxilla, lacrimal, nasal Floor - palatine, zygomatic, maxilla |
|
Hyoid
|
Moveable base for tongue
Body and greater horns: supra and infrahyoid mm lesser horns: stylohyoid lig |
|
Vertebral
|
26 bones
24 vertebra Intervertebral discs: nucleus pulposus - compressive stress anulus fibrosus - fibrocartilage - tension and torsion Ligaments: Anterior longitudinal - prevent displacement posterior long ligamentum flavum - between laminae - elastic |
|
Vertebral Curvatures
|
Increase resiliency
Primary - present at birth thoracic and sacral Secondary - 1st 2 yrs cervical and lumbar |
|
Atlas
|
lacks body and spinous
anterior posterior arches and tubercles lateral masses |
|
C3-C7
|
Small body
Shoft, bifid spinous vert foramen = triangular transverse foramen |
|
T1-T12
|
Heart shaped body - sup/inf costal facets
T10-12 have one facet sharp spinous, pointing inferior vert for = circle Transverse costal facets- tubercle of rib, except T11/12 |
|
L1-L5
|
Big kidney shaped body
short, thick pedicles and lamina short, flat spinous triangular vertebral foramen |
|
Sternal angle
|
allows body to swing anteriorly during inhalation
|
|
Disorders of axial skeleton
|
Scoliosis - usually in t-spine due to mm imbalance, leg length discrepancy
Kyphosis - thoracic hunch due to osteoporosis, poor posture, osteomalacia lordosis - lumbar - obesity, pregnancy, mm, malacia Stenosis of Lumbar - narrowing of vertebral canal, back pain secondary |
