Quiz 4 (Appendicular skeleton, joints) Flashcards
Humerus
Proximal upper limb bone
Head (humerus)
medial
articulates with glenoid fossa
greater tubercle
Superior projecting tubercle
lateral to head of humerus
less tubercle
smaller tubercle lateral to head on anterior surface of humerus
intertubercular groove
groove on anterior surface between the greater/lesser tubercle of humerus
surgical neck
Base of the head of the humerus
narrowing
the actual line on the model around the base of the head of the humerus
deltoid tuberosity
small ridge on anterior surface
1/2 down length of humerus
capitulum
smooth lateral head on distal anterior surface of the humerus. lateral to the trochlea. 1/2 of the condyle
trochlea
medial 1/2 of the condyle, medial to capitulum
smooth (v grove down middle) anterior distal surface
sharper than capitulum
wraps anteriorly and posteriorly
medial epicondyle
large process projecting medially from the distal end. medial to the condyle
lateral epicondyle
small process projecting laterally from the distal end of the humerus.
lateral to the condyle
coronoid fossa
depression on distal anterior surface of the humerus
immediately proximal to condyle
larger of the two anterior fossa
olecranon fossa
Large depression on distal posterior surface of the humerus
cradles the olecranon process
radial fossa
smaller of the two anterior distal fossa of the humerus
lateral to the coronoid fossa
Radius
Lateral bone of antebrachium
larger end is distal
Head (radius)
proximal, smaller
articulates with ulna
radial tuberosity
anterior, proximal end of radius
points medially
styloid process
lateral distal surface of radius
sharp point
ulnar notch
notch on medial surface of distal end of radius
opposite of styloid process
Ulna
Hook on proximal end
medial bone of the antebrachium
trochlear notch
anterior
big scoop
olecranon process
most proximal structure of the ulna forming the proximal half of the trochlear notch. fits into the olecranon fossa of the humerus
coronoid process
sharp process at the distal end of the trochlear notch
makes up half of the trochlear notch of the ulna
fits into coronoid fossa of the humerus
ulnar tuberosity
small ridge of bone originating from the coronoid process, moving distally
anterior proximal surface of ulna
styloid process
on distal end of ulna medial and posterior
small spike
Head (ulna)
distal end of the ulna
radial notch
articulates with radial head
proximal, medial/inferior edge of the trochlear notch
Carpal bones of the hand: Stop letting those people touch the cadavers hand (lateral to medial, proximal to distal)

Metacarpal bones
labeled 1-5 starting at the pollex (thumb)
Carpal bones are the bones of this region
wrist
metacarpal bones are the bones of this region
palm
phalanges how many
14
phalanges are the bones of this region
fingers/thumb
proximal phalanx
first digit of finger/thumb
middle phalanx
second digit of finger
distal phalanx
last digit of finger/thumb
another name for thumb
pollex
phalanges of the thumb
proximal
distal
Wording for quiz answers on metacarpals
metacarpal of the R/L hand
Wording for quiz answers on phalanges
P/M/D phalanx of the # digit of the R/L hand
Determining r/l hand
look for pisiform and thumb.
Pisiform is on the anterior surface (palm) side of hand
Femur

medial distal surface of the femur
lateral epicondyle (femur)
bump superior to the lateral condyle on the lateral surface of the femur
medial epicondyle (femur)
bumb superior to the medial condyle on the medial surface of the femur
