Lower and upper extremity Articulations Powerpoint Flashcards
6/4/19
Osteon/Haversion canal
Hollow tubes in cortical bone that serves as passage for the vessels to supply the structure
Lamella
One of the layers of an osteon/havarsion system that radiate outward from the canal center
Lacunae
A hole in hydroxapatite matrix that stores osteocytes (inactive form of osteoblasts)
Osteocytes
Inactive osteoblast cells that reside in lacunae in the matrix of bone
Osteoblast
Functionally lay down hydroxapatite matrix forming cortical bone, stimulated by calcitonin and inhibited by PTH
Osteoclast
Functionally remove hydroxapatite matrix by removing cortical bone via phagocytosis, inhibited by calcitonin
Low blood calcium causes release of ____, high blood calcium causes release of ______
PTH, calcitonin
Hypercalcemia
Excess blood Ca2+, results in fatigue, renal failure, cardiac arrhythmia
Osteomalacia (rickets disease in children)
Caused by inadequate vit. D intake (and treated with supplement), causes weakness and bone pain
Osteoperosis
Caused by failure to form new bone, no symptoms until fractures, diagnosed via dexa scan and treated with exercise and meds
Ligament definition and function
Attachment of tissue from bone to bone, function to stabilize the joint and to facilitate the desired motion set by the ligament’s orientation
Sacrotuberous ligament
Insertion: Sacrum to ischial tuberosity
Function: Houses a nerve, intertwined with the sacrospinous ligament
Sacrospinous ligament
Insertion: Sacrum to ischial spine
Function: Anterior to the sacrotuberous ligament, forms the greater sciatic foramen, functionally prevents the ileum from sliding posterior to sacrum, intertwined with sacrotuberous ligament
Sacroiliac ligament
Insertion: Sacrum to Iliac
Function: Tightly intermingle the sacrum with the ileum
Acetabular labrum
Insertion: Femur head to acetabolum of pelvic bone
Function: Tightly wrap around the ball and socket joint of the femur with the pelvic girdle
Iliofemoral ligament
Insertion: Anterior inferior iliac spine to femur
Function: Strongest ligament in the body, Y ligament, helps us remain upright while walking
Ischiofemoral ligament (no function given)
Insertion: Ischium to femur
Function: Not much to say
Pubofemoral ligament
Insertion: Superior ramus of the pubis to the femur
Function: prevents hyper-abduction at the hip joint (god help when you do the splits yo)
Ligamentum teres femoris
Insertion: Acetabolum of pelvic bone to femur
Function: Create synovial joint for the femur head
Anterior cruciate ligament
Insertion: Femur to tibia, crossing anteriomedially over the PCL
Function: limit anterior displacement of tibia
Posterior cruciate ligament
Insertion: femur to tibia, crossing posteriolaterally behind the ACL
Function: limit posterior displacement of tibia
Medial collateral ligament
Insertion: Medial femur to tibia
Function: prevent medial directed force on the tibia and femur
Lateral collateral ligament
Insertion: lateral femur to lateral fibula
Function: prevent lateral directed force on fibula and femur
Medial/Lateral Meniscus
Insertion: between tibia and femur
Function: Shock absorber, provide stability
Anterior tibiofibular ligament (no function listed)
Insertion: anterior face of inferior space between tibia and fibula
Function: mmmk
Anterior talofibular ligament
Insertion: Lateral malleolus to anterior talus
Function: Most commonly injured in an ankle sprain, prevents foot from sliding forward during a sprain
Calcaneofibular ligament (no function listed)
Insertion: Lateral malleolus to calcaneous posterioinferiorally
Function:
Posterior talofibular ligament (no function listed
Insertion: Lateral malleolus to posterior talus
Function:
Posterior tibiofibular ligament (no function listed)
Insertion: posterior face of inferior space between tibia and fibula
Function
Acromioclavicular ligament
Insertion: Lateral clavicle to acromion
Function: 1 of 2 attachments between clavicle and scapula
Coracoclavicular ligament
Insertion: Inferior clavicle to coracoid process
Function: 1 of 2 attachmentts between clavicle and scapula
Coracoacromial ligament
Insertion: Coracoid process to acromion
Function: Forms a roof over the humerus attachment, has passage of supraspinatus muscle through it?
inferior/anterior/posterior glenohumoral ligaments
Insertion: Space around glenoid fossa to humerus
Function: limit movement, none exists superiorally allowing for reach amirite
Capsular ligaments
Insertion: glenoid of scapula to femur
Function: Acts as a joint capsule, surrounded by the rotator cuff
Glenoid labrum
Insertion: Glenoid fossa to humerus head
Function: Increase bony contact area
Radial collateral ligament
Insertion: Proximal radius to distal humerus
Function: resist lateral directed force on the elbow joint
Ulnar collateral ligament
Insertion: proximal ulna to distal humerus
Function: resist medial directed force on elbow joint
Annular ligament
Insertion: Radius to ulna
Function: protect integrity of radius in radial notch of the ulna but allow for supination and pronation
