Appendicular Skeleton Flashcards
Femur.
Name the region, distal joints
thigh
joints: stifle and knee
3 things to know about femur
Trochlea is CRAINAL for articulation of patella
Condyles are CUADUAL for articulation with tibia
Horses are the ONLY ones with a 3rd trochanter
Tibula
Name region and distal joints
Crus region
Joint: curotarsal
3 things to know about tibula
condyles: medial to lateral. articulates with femoral proximally and laterally.
tibial tuberosity: cranial projection for patellar ligament
Tibula lies under only skin making easy surgery access
Tibia and Fibula
Which is most distal and non weight bearing
fibula
Tarsus in Dog
Proximal, middle and distal row
Tarus and Metataral in Horse
Proximal, middle and distal row
Tarus and Metataral in Bov
Proximal, middle and distal row
4 main bones in Os Coxae
-illium - most cranial
-ischium- ear shaped most casual
-pubis - most cranal part of pelvis floor
-acetabulum - socket for head of femur
Dog Carpus and metacarpal
Horse carpus and metalcarpal
Bov Carpus and metacarpal
Humerus
Name region and distal joint
Brachium region
Joint: elbow
Who has the supra Condylar and what bone is it on
Cat: Brachial A. and Median N. run through the supra condylar on the humerus
2 things to know about the Humerus
Large animal have a larger greater tubercle and deltoid tuberosity
Deltoid tuberosity is where muscle attaches
What is the main weight bearing limb in the forearm
Radius
What is the region of the radius
anterbrachium
Where does UAP happen
in the olecranon of the ulna
Region of ulna
anterbrachium region
3 things to know about ulna
olecranon is point of elbow
non weight baring serves as muscle attachment
UAP happens here
Whose’s radius and ulna is fused
horse and ox
Scapula
Name region, joints, angles, borders
region: shoulder
joints: Shoulder and glenohumeral
borders: cranial, cadual, Dorsal
angles: cranial, casual, ventral
In a cat, in the scapula’s ancrmion there are 2 process what are they
Hamate process and suprahamate process
What is the sweeny
muscle attachment on the scapula of the horse
Endochondral ossification
mesoderm, cartilage, bone
intramembranous
osstiosite to ostoblast
Hertopic bones
cordis, penis, and diaphragm in some animals
