Chapter 9 Articulations Part 1, 9.1-9.4
2
What are articulations?
Any place of contact between bones Place of articulation is called a joint arthrology = study of joints (arthro = joint)
3
The tradeoff Mobility Stability stability vs mobility Immobile
Fig. 9.1 Immobile Most mobile Very unstable Most stable Stability Suture Glenohumeral joint (shoulder) Hip joint Elbow joint Intervertebral joints Mobility The tradeoff stability vs mobility
4
Joint classifications — Structural
Fibrous bones held together by dense regular connective tissue Cartilaginous bones joined by cartilage Synovial has fluid-filled cavity fluid separates cartilage-covered bone surfaces bone surfaces enclosed in cavity, joined by ligaments
5
Joint classifications — Functional
Synarthrosis immobile Amphiarthrosis slightly mobile Diarthrosis freely mobile
6
Types of Fibrous Joints
Gomphosis “peg in a socket” In human body, only gomphoses (pl.) are roots of teeth with mandible and maxillae tooth held by periodontal membrane Functional classification: synarthrosis (9.2a) Gomphosis Root of tooth Periodontal membranes Alveolar process of mandible
7
Types of Fibrous Joints
Suture Only in skull Distinct, interlocking, irregular edges increase strength and decrease fractures Permit growth of skull during childhood Become ossified in adulthood When completely fused, called synostoses (pl.) Suture
8
Types of Fibrous Joints
Ulna Syndesmosis (interosseous membrane) Radius Syndesmoses syndesmos = fastening syn = with; desmos = band, ligament Bones joined by long strands of dense regular connective tissue only interosseous membrane Ex. radius and ulna, tibia and fibula Functional classification: amphiarthroses
9
Types of Cartilaginous Joints
Epiphyseal plate Costochondral joints Joint between first rib and sternum (9.3a Synchondroses) NOT these joints Synchondrosis syn = with chondro = cartilage Bones joined by hyaline cartilage Functional classification: synarthroses
10
Types of Cartilaginous Joints
Symphysis Bones joined by pad of fibrocartilage Resists compression and stress Functional classification: amphiarthroses Intervertebral joint Intervertebral disc Pubic symphysis Body of vertebra (9.3b Symphyses)
11
Synovial Joints Basic features articular capsule
Periosteum Yellow bone marrow Basic features articular capsule two layers thick joint cavity with synovial fluid synovial fluid secreted by synovial membrane Fibrous layer Articular capsule Synovial membrane Joint cavity (containing synovial fluid) Articular cartilage Ligament 9.4 Typical synovial joint
12
Synovial Joints Basic features articular cartilage ligaments
Periosteum Yellow bone marrow Basic features articular cartilage ligaments nerves and blood vessels (not shown) Functional classification: diarthrosis Fibrous layer Articular capsule Synovial membrane Joint cavity (containing synovial fluid) Ligament Articular cartilage 9.4 Typical synovial joint
13
Ligaments Dense regular connective tissue Connect bone to bone
Two types: Extrinsic ligaments are outside the articular capsule Intrinsic ligaments are thickening of articular capsule itself include extracapsular ligaments and intracapsular ligaments
14
Accessory structures Bursa
fibrous, saclike structure filled with synovial fluid may be connected to or outside joint cavity alleviate friction tendon sheath is an elongated bursal wrapped around a tendon

23
Angular motion Flexion: decreases angle between bones
Extension Hyperextension Hyperextension Flexion Extension Flexion Flexion Extension Angular motion Flexion: decreases angle between bones Extension: straightening action, increases angle Hyperextension: extension beyond 180º
24
Angular motion Lateral Flexion: trunk of body moves on coronal plane
25
Adduction: movement of body part toward central plane
Abduction Adduction Angular motion Adduction: movement of body part toward central plane Abduction: movement of body part away from central plane

74
Aging of the Joints Size, flexibility and shape of joints affected and modified by use active joints have larger and thicker capsules active joints have larger ligaments and bones Age or injury can cause calcification or synostosis of joint Arthritis involves damage to articular cartilage osteoarthritis (degenerative arthritis) usually results from wear and tear exercise compresses articular cartilages, synovial fluid squeezed out and pulled back in, providing nutrients to joints exercise strengthens muscles supporting joints extreme exercise may aggravate joint problems, leading to osteoarthritis
75
Other forms of arthritis
Gouty arthritis (gout) results from uric acid buildup in blood often seen in middle age and older, especially in males urate crystals accumulate in blood, synovial fluid, and synovial membranes causes joint pain Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is autoimmune disease usually develops in young or middle-aged people causes pain and swelling of joints, muscle weakness, osteoporosis may lead to blindness
