28
Q

Atlas

A

Holds head up

29
Q

Axis

A

Pivot for head to turn

30
Q

Jefferson Fracture

A

Vertical compression force from skull on Atlas (C1)

31
Q

Pars Interarticularis Fracture

A

Traumatic hyperextension of the head on the neck can fracture the boney connection between the superior and inferior articular processes on the axis (C2)

32
Q

What happens if the ligamentum flavum increases in size

A

Decreases size of intervertebral foramen and cause nerves/blood vessels to be pinched

33
Q

Hyperextension of neck

A

stretch/tear to anterior longitudinal ligament and damage to intervertebral dis

34
Q

Hyperflexion (whiplash) of neck

A

Stretch/tear on posterior longitudinal ligament and supraspinous ligament rupture and compression of intervertebral disc on anterior surface

35
Q

Name the missing ligaments of the vertebral column

A

Facet Joint (Capsulary Ligament)

36
Q

Name the missing ligaments of the vertebral column

A

Supraspinous Ligament

37
Q

Name the missing ligaments of the vertebral column

A

Ligamentum Flavum

38
Q

Name the missing ligaments of the vertebral column

A

Posterior Longitudinal Ligament

39
Q

Name the missing ligaments of the vertebral column

A

Anterior Longitudinal Ligament

40
Q

Pars Interarticularis

A

Bony connection b/w superior and inferior articular processes

41
Q

Spondylosis

A

Common at L4/L5 due to repeated stress fractures caused by back hyperextension (ex. gymnastics) -> also called the spine divide

42
Q

Spondylolisthesis

A

Facet joint no longer holds vertebrae in place against force of bodyweight (spin slips foward)
