Lec 6 - Histo TMJ Flashcards
upper and lower synovial compartments are divided by this
arituclar disc
synovial fluid does these but doesnt do this
lubricates/nourishes chondrocytes, does not act as a shock absorber because not enough of it
egg white consistency of synovial fluid is due to blank
hyaluronic acid
tmj is not covered by blank
hyaline cartilage
roof of mandibular fossa is formed by blank from the temporal bone with no underlying blank
compact bone, spongy bone
mandibular fossa is lined by thin blank but not blank
dense fibrous ct, fibrocartilage
mandibular fossa is non blank
stress bearing
bone comprising the articular eminence is blank compared to fossa
thicker (withstands more pressure)
thickest part of articular disc
posterior band
the postero superior and postero inferior laminae of the posterior band surround a part called the blank
retrodiscal pad
retrodiscal pad is made of blank ct
loose
the posterosuperior lamina is composed of blank fibers
elastic
the posteroinferior lamina is composed of blank
collagenous tissue
fibers of both posterosuperior and posteroinferior course in this direction
anteroposterior
three layers of superior aspect of the condyle
fibrous articular layer, cellular proliferative layer, hyaline growth cartilage
fibrous articular layer sometimes has blank deep layers
calcified
fibrous articular layer is not in direct contact with underlying bone but is separated by remnants of blank cartilage from the condyl
grwoth
layer with mesenchymal cells for chondroblastic cells
cellular proliferative layer
layer that is the innermost layer
hyaline cartilage
outer zone of hyaline cartilage is for blank
matrix formation
middle zone of hyaline cartilage is for blank
cellular hypertrophy
inner zone of hyaline cartilage is for blank
calcification and resorption
primary cartilages grow blank while condylar cartilage grows by blank of cells produced in the intermediate layer
interstitially, apposition
the chondrocytes in primary cartilage blank but condylar cartilage chondrocytes blank
die, live
