JOINTS AND THEIR CLASSIFICATION
Arthrology = study of the joints
 Kinesiology = study of musculoskeletal
movement
 Classified by freedom of movement
Joints and their classification

 bony
joints
joints
 cartilaginous joints
 fibrous

Synovial joints
 diarthrosis
(freely movable)
(slightly movable)
 synarthrosis (little or no movement)
 amphiarthrosis

Classified how adjacent bones are joined
 fibrous,
cartilaginous, bony or synovial

BONY JOINT (SYNOSTOSIS)

FIBROUS JOINTS (SYNARTHROSIS)
Gap between two bones ossifies

 frontal
and mandibular bones in infants
 cranial

 attachment of first rib and sternum

Collagen fibers span the space between
bones

Can occur in either fibrous or cartilaginous joint

FIBROUS JOINT -- GOMPHOSES
Immovable fibrous joints
 bind skull bones together
Serrate - interlocking lines
 coronal,, sagittal
and lambdoid
g
sutures
Lap - overlapping beveled edges
 temporal and parietal bones
Plane - straight, nonoverlapping
edges
 palatine processes of the
maxillae
Attachment of a tooth to its socket
 Held in place by fibrous periodontal

FIBROUS JOINT -- SYNDESMOSIS

CARTILAGINOUS JOINT -- SYNCHONDROSIS
Two bones bound by ligament only
 interosseus

membrane
Bones are joined by hyaline cartilage
 rib
attachment to sternum
plate in children binds
p
epiphysis and diaphysis
 epiphyseal
pp y
Most movable of fibrous joints
 Interosseus membranes unite
radius to ulna and tibia to fibula

SYNOVIAL JOINT
CARTILAGINOUS JOINT -- SYMPHYSIS

2 bones joined by fibrocartilage

Only slight amount of movement is possible
 pubic
7-8
symphysis and intervertebral discs


Joint in which two bones are separated by a space called
a joint cavity
Most are freely movable
7-9
TENDON SHEATHS AND BURSAE
GENERAL ANATOMY

Articular capsule encloses joint cavity



continuous with periosteum
lined by synovial membrane
Synovial fluid = slippery fluid; feeds cartilages
Articular cartilage = hyaline cartilage covering
the joint surfaces
Articular discs and menisci


7-10
jaw, wrist, sternoclavicular and knee joints
absorbs shock, guides bone movements and
distributes forces
Tendon attaches muscle to bone
Ligament attaches bone to bone

Bursa = saclike extension of joint capsule

Tendon sheaths = cylinders of connective tissue lined with
synovial membrane and wrapped around a tendon

between nearby structures so slide more easily past each other

TYPES OF SYNOVIAL JOINTS
RANGE OF MOTION
Degrees through which a joint can move
 Determined by

 structure
 strength
of the articular surfaces
and tautness of ligaments, tendons and
capsule
 stretching
of ligaments increases range of motion
people have long or slack ligaments
 double-jointed
 action
of the muscles and tendons
 nervous
system monitors joint position and muscle tone
