22
Q

function of annulus

A

enclosing and retaining the nucleus pulposus, absorbing compressive shocks, forming a structural unit between vertebral bodies and restricting motion
limits amount of torsion allowed on the disc and amount of rotation on the vertebra
allows disc to adapt to stress

23
Q

what reinforces the annulus?

A

ALL

PLL

24
Q

why is the PLL clinically significant for the annulus

A

as it descends its width narrows until covering only about 50% of the central portion of the lower lumbar discs
this makes the posterolateral aspect to most likely be injured

25
Q

describe how the annulus gets nutrients

A

outer portion has a blood supply innervated by the sinuvertebral/recurrent meningeal nerve
the lateral aspect is innervated by grey rami communicantes

26
Q

nucleus pulposus

A

central portion of the disc and is embryological derivative of the notochord
it account for about 40% of the disc and is semifluid gel that will deform easily but is considered impressionable
responsible for high water content of the disc
during the aging process, the water gradually disappears

27
Q

when is the most common time to injure a disc?

A

30-50 years

28
Q

pressure changes in the disc

A
recumbent
standing
sitting
sitting leaning forward
jumping
29
Q

what can compressive loads do to the disc?

A

can cause fracture to the endplate or anterior vertebral body will collapse, but not herniation

30
Q

nutrition to the disc is by way of?

A

imbibition (motion)

31
Q

transverse ligament

A

holds dens in fovea dentalis of atlas

32
Q

cruciate ligament

A

occiput to body of C2, cross shaped

33
Q

alar ligament

A

limits rotation of C2

sides of dens to occipital condyles (AKA check ligament)

34
Q

apical dental ligament

A

limits flexion/extension of C2, apex of dens to anterior aspect of the foramen

35
Q

dentate ligaments

A

21 ligaments connecting pia to dura along the spinal cord (dural torque theory)

36
Q

anterior longitudinal ligament

A

limits extension

front of vertebral bodies from sacrum to C2

37
Q

anterior atlanto-occipital ligament

A

continuation of PLL from C2 to occiput

38
Q

anterior atlanto-axial ligament

A

continuation of ALL from C2 to atlas

39
Q

posterior longitudinal ligament

A

limits flexion. back of vertebral bodies (anterior portion of canal)
wider in cervicals, thinner in lumbars and thinnest at L5

40
Q

tectorial memebrane

A

continuation of PLL from C2 to occiput

41
Q

ligamentum flavum

A

most important of the posterior ligaments in limiting flexion
lamina to lamina (posterior portion of canal)
high elastic content
under constant tension as a result of its elastic properties

42
Q

posterior atlanto-axial

A

continuation of ligamentum flavum from C2 to C1

43
Q

posterior atlanto-occipital

A

ligamentum flavum from C1 to occiput

arcuate foramen if ossified

44
Q

capsular ligament

A

between articular processes

45
Q

intertransverse ligament

A

between TVP

46
Q

interspinous ligament

A

between spinous process

47
Q

supraspinous ligament

A

from spinous to spinous

48
Q

ligamentum nuchae

A

continuation of supraspinous ligament from C7 to occiput

49
Q

transforaminal ligament

A

traverse the foramina and diminsh space available for passage of NRs

50
Q

meninges

A

CT coverings arranged in 3 distinct layers that cover and protect the spinal cord from excessive movement and damage

51
Q

3 layers of meninges

A

dura
arachnoid
pia
(dentate)

52
Q

dura mater

A

thick and tough CT
continuous from cranial cavity to sacrum
covers individual NR and nerves as they exit spinal canal
sleeves of dura follow nerves to the IVF and surround a swelling, which represents the location of the DRG

53
Q

arachnoid mater

A

more delicate and VASCULAR and is attached to the inner surface of the dura
thin weblike projections extend from arachnoid to pia

54
Q

pia mster

A

single cell CT layer that adheres directly to the surface the neural tissue, including the individual cranial and spinal rootlets

55
Q

dentate ligament

A

series of pial porjections, located primarily in the thoracic region, which project from lateral surface of the spinal cord penetrate the arachnoid and anchor to the dura
gives us the dural torque theory
