what are the five types of cranial sutures? give an example of each
|
serrated: sagittal suture
squamous: squamoparietal suture harmonic: lacrimoethmoidal suture gomphosis: greater wing of sphenoid and body combination (irregular)- no example given |
|
what is beveling?
|
slope of a cranial articular surface in relation to the inner and outer table of bone.
|
|
what are the two classifications of joints? what does each one mean?
|
synarthrosis: articulation w/o a joint cavity
diarthrosis: articulation w/ a joint cavity |
|
what are the two subcategories of synarthrosis? what differentiates the two? give an example of each.
|
synchondrosis: cartilaginous union -> sphenobasilar symphysis
syndesmosis: ligamentous union --> petrosphenoid ligament |
|
what is an example of a diarthrosis joint?
|
temporomandibular joint
|
|
what are the three premature suture closures?
|
coronal suture, sagittal suture, and coronal and lambdoid sutures
|
|
what are the two physiologic motions of the SBS? what is the SBS?
|
sphenobasilar synchrondrosis
-Flexion/external rotation -extension/ internal rotation |
|
what are the midline bones? what are their motions?
|
sphenoid, occiput, vomer, ethmoid, sacrum
motion: Flexion and extension |
|
what are the paired bones? what are their motions?
|
parietals, frontals, temporals, zygomae, maxillae, nasals, lacrimals, palatines
external and internal rotation |
|
during cranial flexion, what does the sacrum do?
|
counternutates
|
|
during cranial extension, what does the sacrum do?
|
nutate
|
|
During cranial flexion, where do all the midline bones move? where do all the paired bones move?
|
midline--> move in flexion
paired--> move into external rotation |
|
during cranial extension, where do all the midline bones move? where do all the paired bones move?
|
midline--> extension
paired--> internal rotation |
|
what is the axis of motion of the sphenoid? where is it located? how does it move?
|
transverse axis (anterior to and on the level w/ the floor of the sella turcica). Flexion/extension
|
|
what is the axis of motion of the occiput? where is it located?how does it move?
|
transverse axis
located above jugular process of occiput at level of SBS flexion/ extension |
|
what happens to the cranial vault during flexion of the SBS?
|
the vault widens--> palate widens and flattens, A-P diameter decreases, superior-inferior diameter decreases, transverse diameter increases
|
|
what happens to the cranial vault during extension of the SBS?
|
the vault narrows -->palate heightens and narrows, A-P diameter and superior-inferior diameter increase, transverse diameter decreases
|
|
what bone influences the motion of the temporal bones?
|
occiput
|
|
what is the axis of motion of the temporal bones? what motions does it do?
|
axis: approximately through the petrous ridge and converges anteriomedially
motions: external and internal rotation |
|
what are the axis of motion of the parietal bone? what motions does it do?
|
2 axis that converge anteriorly:
from a point lateral to the bregma on coronal border in posterolateral direction through the parietal eminence. aka: forming a V with the sagittal suture inbetween the lines and the point being towards the frontal bone. motion: external and internal rotation |
|
what is the axis of motion of the frontal bone? what motion does it do?
|
roughly from center of each orbital plate through frontal eminence
motion: external and internal rotation |
|
what are the three sacral axes? what axis are they each associated with?
|
superior transverse axis- respiratory axis
middle transverse axis- postural axis inferior transverse axis- hip bone axis |
|
what is causing the superiorposterior movement of the sacrum during cranial flexion?
|
the dura connecting the occiput and sacrum. when the occiput externally rotates it pulls the dura up and in with it causing the sacrum to move up and out.
