Classification
Table 9–1
Functional Classification of Joints
• Synarthroses (singular = synarthrosis)
– Immovable joints
• Amphiarthroses (singular = amphiarthrosis)
– Slightly movable joints
• Diarthroses (singular = diarthrosis)
– Freely movable joints
Structural Classification of Joints
• Fibrous
• no joint cavity, bones held together with
collagen fibers
• Cartilagnous
• no joint cavity, bones held together with
cartilage
• Synovial
• have a “synovial” cavity, bones held together
with an enclosed capsule & ligaments
•Synostosis
• Conversion of other joints to solid bone mass

Types of
Synovial
Joints
• Pencil maintains
vertical orientation, but
changes position
Linear (non-axial) Motion
Figure 9–2a, b
Angular Motion
(non-axial)
• Pencil maintains position,
but changes orientation
Figure 9–2c
Circumduction
(Multiaxial)
• Circular angular motion
Figure 9–2d
Rotation
(Uniaxial)
• Pencil maintains position and
orientation, but spins
Figure 9–2e
Planes (Axes) of Dynamic
Motion
• Monaxial or uniaxial (1 axis)
• Biaxial (2 axes)
• Triaxial or multiaxial (3 axes)
Types of Movements Possible at
Synovial Joints
Gliding
Flexion
Figure 9–3a
Flexion
• Angular motion
• Anterior–posterior plane
• Reduces angle between elements
• Bends vertebral
column from
side to side
Lateral Flexion
Figure 9–5f
Extension
• Angular motion
• Anterior–posterior plane
• Increases angle between elements
Hyperextension
• Angular motion
• Extension past anatomical position
Abduction & Adduction
Figure 9–3b, c
Abduction
• Angular motion
• Frontal plane
• Moves away from longitudinal axis
Adduction
• Angular motion
• Frontal plane
• Moves toward longitudinal axis
Circumduction
• Circular motion
without rotation
• Angular motion

Rotation
Figure 9–4
Rotation
• Direction of rotation from anatomical position
• Relative to longitudinal axis of bodyLeft or
right rotation
• Medial rotation (inward rotation):
– rotates toward axis
• Lateral rotation (outward rotation):
– rotates away from axis
Pronation and Supination
• Pronation:
– rotates forearm, radius over ulna
• Supination:
– forearm in anatomical position
Special movements of the antebrachium
Inversion
and
Eversion
Figure 9–5a
Special movements of the foot
Inversion and Eversion
• Inversion:
– twists sole of foot medially
• Eversion:
– twists sole of foot laterally
Special movement of the ankle
Dorsiflexion and Plantar Flexion
• Dorsiflexion:
– flexion at ankle (lifting toes)
• Plantar flexion:
– extension at ankle (pointing toes)
Opposition
• Thumb movement
toward fingers or
palm (grasping)
Figure 9–5c
Protraction and Retraction
• Protraction:
– moves anteriorly
– in the horizontal plane (pushing forward)
• Retraction:
– opposite of protraction
– moving anteriorly (pulling back)
Elevation and Depression
Figure 9–5e
Elevation and Depression
• Elevation:
– moves in superior direction (up)
• Depression:
– moves in inferior direction (down)
Types
synovial
joints
Gliding Joints
• Flattened or slightly curved faces
• Limited motion (nonaxial)
Hinge Joints
• Angular motion in a single plane (monaxial)
Figure 9–6 (2 of 6)
Pivot Joints
• Rotation only (monaxial)
Figure 9–6 (3 of 6)
Ellipsoidal Joints
(sometimes called “condylar” joints)
• Oval articular face within a depression
• Motion in 2 planes (biaxial)
Figure 9–6 (4 of 6)
Saddle Joints
• 2 concave faces, straddled (biaxial)
Figure 9–6 (5 of 6)
Ball-and-Socket Joints
• Round articular face in a depression
(triaxial)

Structural Details of Some
Synovial Joints
Intervertebral
Articulations
Figure 9–7
Intervertebral Articulations
• C2 to L5 spinal vertebrae articulate:
– at inferior and superior articular processes
(gliding joints)
– between adjacent vertebral bodies (symphyseal
joints)
Disc Structure
• Anulus fibrosus:
– tough outer layer
– attaches disc to vertebrae
• Nucleus pulposus:
– elastic, gelatinous core
– absorbs shocks
Verterbral Joints
• Also called symphyseal joints
• As vertebral column moves:
– nucleus pulposus shifts
– disc shape conforms to motion
6 Intervertebral Ligaments
• Anterior longitudinal ligament:
– connects anterior bodies
• Posterior longitudinal ligament:
– connects posterior bodies
• Ligamentum flavum:
– connects laminae
6 Intervertebral Ligaments
• Interspinous ligament:
– connects spinous processes
• Supraspinous ligament:
– connects tips of spinous processes (C7 to
sacrum)
• Ligamentum nuchae:
– continues supraspinous ligament (C7 to skull)
Damage to Intervertebral Discs
Figure 9–8
Damage to Intervertebral Discs
• Slipped disc:
– bulge in anulus fibrosus
– invades vertebral canal
• Herniated disc:
– nucleus pulposus breaks through anulus
fibrosus
– presses on spinal cord or nerves
Movements of the
Vertebral Column
• Flexion:
– bends anteriorly
• Extension:
– bends posteriorly
• Lateral flexion:
– bends laterally
• Rotation

Articulations of the Appendicular Skeleton
Articulations of the Appendicular Skeleton
Rheumatism
• A pain and stiffness of skeletal and
muscular systems
Arthritis
• All forms of rheumatism that damage
articular cartilages of synovial joints
Osteoarthritis
• Caused by wear and tear of joint surfaces,
or genetic factors affecting collagen
formation
• Generally in people over age 60
Rheumatoid Arthritis
• An inflammatory condition
• Caused by infection, allergy, or autoimmune
disease
• Involves the immune system
Gouty Arthritis
• Occurs when crystals (uric acid or calcium
salts):
– form within synovial fluid
– due to metabolic disorders
Joint Immobilization
• Reduces flow of synovial fluid
• Can cause arthritis symptoms
• Treated by continuous passive motion
(therapy)
Bones and Aging
• Bone mass decreases
• Bones weaken
• Increases risk of hip fracture, hip
dislocation, or pelvic fracture
