Lecture 4- Arthrology

Question 1

Three types of joints

Answer 1

Fibrous
Cartilagenous
Synovial

Question 2

Two subclasses of cartilagenous joints

Answer 2

Symphysis (fibrocartilage that eventually ossifies)
Synchondrosis (Temporary joints, programmed to ossify, not time dependent ex:physis)

Question 3

Two components of synovial joints

Answer 3

Fibrous: outer capsule
Membranous: (secretes fluid)

Question 4

What is a meniscus?

Answer 4

Fibrocartilagenous plate

Question 5

Types of ligaments in a synovial joint

Answer 5

Intra-articular ligament
Extracapsular ligament

Question 6

Where can the patellar ligament be found?

Answer 6

Surrounding the patella, conecting hte femur and tibia

Question 7

What type of ligaments are extracapsular?

Answer 7

Collateral

Question 8

4 muscles of the rotator cuff

Answer 8

Lateral (colateral) ligaments: supraspinatus, infraspinatus
Medial (colateral) ligaments: Subscapularis, coracobrachialis

Question 9

10 ligaments of the genual joint

Answer 9

Cranial tibial ligament of the medial meniscus
Caudal tibial ligament of the medial meniscus
Cranial tibial ligament of the lateral meniscus
Caudal tibial ligament of the lateral meniscus
Transvers meniscal tibial ligament
Meniscofemoral ligament
Medial collateral ligament
Lateral collateral ligament
Cranial cruciate ligament
Caudal cruciate ligament

Question 10

Two categories of genual ligaments

Answer 10

Meniscal ligaments
Femorotibial ligaments

Question 11

When impacted from the right side of the knee, which side sustains the most damage?

Answer 11

Left

Question 12

How to remove the lateral meniscus

Answer 12

cut the cranial and caudal tibial ligaments, the tansverse meniscal ligament, and the meniscofemoral ligament

Question 13

How to remove the medial meniscus

Answer 13

Cut the cranial and causal tibial ligaments and transverse meniscal ligament
Dissect medial collateral ligament
