JOINTS
JOINT
A joint is the junction or pivot point between two
or more bones.
 Movement of the body as a whole results from the
rotation of bones about individual joints.
 Joints transfer and dissipate forces produced by
gravity and muscle activation.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie

ARTHROLOGY
Arthrology is the study of the classification,
structure, and function of joints.
 Aging, long-term immobilization, trauma, and
disease all affect the structure and ultimate
function of joints.
 These factors influence the quality and quantity
of human movement.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie

CLASSIFICATION OF JOINTS

Structural Classification
Presence or absence of a space (synovial cavity)
 Type of Connective Tissue

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie

Functional Classification

Relates to the degree of movement they permit.

CLASSIFICATION OF JOINTS BASED
ON MOVEMENT POTENTIAL

Two major types of joints exist within the body:
Synarthroses
 Diarthroses

JOINTS OF THE BODY
Dr. Michael P. Gillespie

SYNARTHROSES
A synarthrosis is a junction between two bones
that allows slight to essentially no movement.
 Synarthroidial joints can be classified as either
fibrous or cartilaginous based upon the dominant
type of connective tissue.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
7
TYPES OF SYNARTHROSES

Fibrous joints
Dense connective tissue (high concentration of
collagen)
 Sutures of the skull
 Joints reinforced by an interosseous membrane
(distal tibiofibular joint).

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie

Cartilaginous joints
Flexible cartilage or hyaline cartilage
 Symphysis pubis
 Interbody joints of the spine
 Manubriosternal joint


DIARTHROSES (SYNOVIAL JOINTS)
A diarthrosis is an articulation that allows
moderate to extensive motion.
 Possess a synovial fluid-filled cavity.
 Compose the majority of the joints within the
musculoskeletal system.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie

SEVEN ELEMENTS OF
DIARTHRODIAL JOINTS
Articular cartilage – covers the ends and other
articular surfaces of bones
 Joint capsule (articular capsule) – peripheral
curtain of connective tissue
 Synovial membrane – dcxf vcdx d cxdfv cxfefdsex
 Synovial fluid
 Ligaments

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
Capsular ligaments
 Extracapsular ligaments

Blood vessels

INTRA-ARTICULAR DISCS (MENISCI)
Intra-articular discs (meninsci) – pads of
fibrocartilage imposed between articular
surfaces.
 These pads increase congruency and improve
force dispersion.
 Examples of intra-articular discs

12
PERIPHERAL LABRUM
A peripheral labrum of fibrocartilage extends
from the body rims of the glenoid fossa to the
shoulder and the acetabulum of the hip.
 These structures deepen the concave surface of
the joint.
 These structures support and thicken the
attachment of the joint capsule.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
13
FAT PADS
Fat pads thicken the joint capsule, causing the
inner surface of the capsule to fill nonarticulating
joint spaces formed by incongruent bony
contours.
 They are prominent in the elbow and knee joints.
 Enlarged and inflamed fat pads can adversely
affect the biomechanics of the joint.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
14
BURSAE
A bursa is an extension or outpouching of the
synovial membrane of a diarthroidial joint.
 Bursae are filled with synovial fluid and exists in
areas of potential stress.
 Bursae help to absorb force and protect
periarticular connective tissues, including bone.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
15
SYNOVIAL PLICA
Synovial plicae (synovial folds, synovial
redundancies, or synovial fringes) are slack,
overlapped pleats of tissue composed of the
innermost layers of the joint capsule.
 They are found in joints with large capsular
surface area such as the knee and elbow.
 They increase the synovial surface area and
allow full joint motion without undue tension on
the synovial lining.
 Folds that are thickened or adhered due to
inflammation can alter the joint biomechanics.

SIMPLIFYING THE CLASSIFICATION
OF SYNOVIAL JOINTS

Two articular forms based upon true movement
of the joint.

Essentially all synovial joints of the body with
the notable exception of planar joints can be
categorized under this scheme.
Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
Ovoid joint
 Saddle joint

38
OVOID JOINT
An ovoid joint has paired mating surfaces that
are imperfectly spheric, or egg-shaped, with
adjacent parts possessing a changing surface
curvature.
 The articular surface of one bone is convex and of
the other is concave.
 Most joints of the body are of this variety.

Dr. Michael P. Gillespie
39
SADDLE JOINT
A saddle joint consists of paired convex and
concave surfaces oriented at approximately 90
degrees to each other.
 Each member has a reciprocally curved concave
and convex surface oriented at right angles to the
other, like a horse rider and a saddle.
