Axial Skeleton Vertebral Column composed of 26 bones of the 80 total that make up the Axial Skeleton

Vertebral Column Aka  Spine or backbone Formed from 26 irregular bones Connected in a way that the flexible curved structure is formed Along with sternum and ribs, forms the trunk of the body

Functions of the Vertebral Column 1) Surrounds and protects the spinal cord 2) Provides attachment points for the ribs and back and neck muscles 3)Transmits weight of the trunk to the lower limbs

Divisions Cervical - 7 – Neck Thoracic - 12 – Ribs Lumbar - 5 – Lower back Sacrum - 5 – Articulates with pelvic bones Coccyx – 4 (3-5) – Tailbone

Curvatures When viewed from the side, you see 4 slight bends or curvatures that give it an “S” shape. Increases the resilience and flexibility of the spine Helps to absorb shock during walking Protects the vertebrae from fracture

Cervical and Lumbar – Concave (curve in) Thoracic and Sacral – Convex (curve out) Curvatures

Kyphosis Hunchback Dorsally exaggerated thoracic curvature Common in elderly because of osteoporosis May also result from tuberculosis of the spine, rickets, or osteomalacia

Lordosis Swayback Accentuated lumbar curvature Common in those with an increase in abdominal weight – Men with potbellies – Pregnant women An attempt to preserve the center of gravity they throw their shoulders back

Scoliosis “twisted disease” Abnormal lateral curvature most often seen in thoracic region Most common in girls during late childhood

Types of Vertebrae Cervical Thoracic Lumbar

Atlas 1 st cervical Vertebrae - C 1 Supports the head Named for mythological Atlas who supported the world on his shoulders Ring of bone No body or spinous process Allows for “Yes” motion

Axis 2 nd cervical Vertebrae – C 2 Has body and spinous process Has a dens (odontoid process) – Missing body of the atlas which fuses during development Dens is a pivot that the atlas can rotate around allowing for “No” motion

Sacrum 5 fused bones Triangular Shapes the posterior wall of the pelvis

Coccyx Tailbone 4 Fused bones (3-5) Slight support of pelvic organs

Body (Centrum) Disc-shape; weight bearing (anterior) region Body

Pedicle “little feet” Short bony pillars Project posteriorly from body Forms sides of arch Pedicle

Lamina Flattened plates Join to form the posterior portion of the arch Lamina

Vertebral Arch Extends posteriorly from the body Made up of the pedicle and laminae Body and arch enclose the vertebral foramen Vertebral Arch

Vertebral Foramen Formed from the vertebral arch and body Contains the spinal cord Vertebral foramen

Spinous Process Median posterior projection Seen at the junction of the two laminae Points of muscle attachment Spinous Process

Transverse Process Extends laterally from each side of the arch Points of muscle attachments Transverse Process

Axis Only Dens (odontoid process) Dens acts as a pivot for the atlas. Allows you to rotate your head from side to side

Rib Articulations Transverse costal facet Demifacet

Superior Articular Process Seen on superior side of vertebra Articulate with the inferior articular process of the vertebra above it Superior Articular Process

Inferior Articular Process Seen on the inferior side of the vertebra Articulate with the superior articular process of the vertebra below it Inferior Articular Process

Intervertebral Disc Cushion-like pad that acts as a shock absorber during activity Allows the spine to flex, extend, and bend laterally Thickest in the cervical and lumbar regions to allow for greater movement Flatten during the day so we are taller in the morning than in the evening No disc between first two cervical vertebrae

Transverse Costal Facet Facets on thoracic transverse process Articulate with the tubercle of the rib
