Integumentary, fascia, bursae Flashcards
layers of the skin
- Epidermis = keratinized epithelium Avascular, no lymphatics Some nerve terminals 2. Dermis= interlacing collagen and elastic fibers. Contain hair follicles, arrector muscle, and sebaceous glands. 3. Subcutaneous tissue (superficial fascia): composed mostly of loose connective tissue and stored fat, sweat glands, superficial blood vessels, lymphatic vessels, and cutaneous nerves. 4. Deep fascia
skin ligament?
Skin ligaments= fibrous bands extending through the superficial fascia, attaches the dermis w/ deep fascia. Region where long and sparse skin ligament loose skin (dorsum of hand), where short and abundant skin firmly attached to the deep fascia (palm and sole). In breast, skin ligament well developed into suspensory ligament.
in which layer of integumentary mammary gland located?
Mammary gland located in superficial fascia, which has loose, irregular arrangement Normal: easy to move around the superficial fascia sign of breast cancer: breast cancer cells metastasize from superficial to deep fascia, and adhere to the deeper fascia cancer breast loses its mobility
Component of deep fascia?
Deep fascia (thick, tough, white glossy) : dense connective tissue in regular arrangement
Types of extension of deep fascia (deep fascia extends centrally)
1>Deep fascia can extend centrally and to invest indiv. muscles and neurovascular bundles = investing fascia 2>Specially in the limbs, groups of muscles w/ similar fxns and sharing the same nerve supply stay in the same compartments, separated by thick intermuscular septa. 3>Lie b/w musculoskeletal wall and the serous membrane lining body cavity = subserous fascia 4>Deep fascia thickens near joints of ankle and wrist called reticulum to hold tendons in place during flexion and extension prevent bowstringing of tendon during movements
Bursae=?
Bursae = close sac or envelopes of serous membrane (delicate connective tissue membrane capable of secreting fluid to lubricate the internal smooth surface)that are emptied except for a thin layer of lubricating fluid secreted by the membrane. This forms a potential space; however, when filled w/ excessive secreted fluid realized space pathology
Types of bursae
1>subcutaneous bursae occurs in the subcutaneous tissue b/w skin and bony prominence. 2>Subfascial bursae lie beneath the deep fascia 3>Subtendoneous bursae facilitates the movement of tendon over bone 4>Synovial tendon sheath= specialized type of elongated bursae that wraps around tendons.
Types of cartilage
Hyaline (surfaces of most bones) Fibrocartilage (menisci of knee & head of the mandible) Elastic (external ear)
Fibrocartilage’s component
:mix b/w deep fascia and collagen cartilage, subject to wear and tear, tougher (e.g: intervertebral disc, meniscis)
Investing fascia
Deep fascia can extend centrally and to invest indiv. muscles and neurovascular bundles = investing fascia
Intermuscular fascia
Especially in the limbs, groups of muscles w/ similar fxns and sharing the same nerve supply stay in the same compartments, separated by thick intermuscular septa.
Subserous fascia
Lie b/w musculoskeletal wall and the serous membrane lining body cavity
Reticulum
Deep fascia thickens near joints of ankle and wrist called reticulum to hold tendons in place during flexion and extension prevent bowstringing of tendon during movements
