General Anatomy
vertebra
q Membranous bones: Bones are formed by membranes. These membranes are then transformed into bone.
Clavicle, Maxilla, Skull vault
According to shape
q Long bones, short bones, flat bones, irregular bones.
Long Bones
q Consists of two ends and intervening shaft
q Presence of medullary cavity
q Vertically placed
PREVIEW
q Ossify by means of cartilage
Types of epiphysis
q Pressure: Take part in joint formation. They transmit weight
Head of humerus
Lower end of radius etc
q Traction epiphysis: Non-articular and does not take part in
weight transmission e.g.
Greater and lesser trochanter of femur
Greater and lesser tubercle of humerus and mastoid process
q Atavastic: Phylogenetically independent but fused to nearest
bone for nutrition e.g.
Coracoid process of scapula
Ostrigonum Structure of bone
q Aberrant Epiphysis (Aberrant, Not usual): Not always present, e.g.
Head of 1st metacarpal bones
Base of other metacarpal bones
Short Bones
q Short in post and it can be in any shape. According to their shape, these bones are named. For example,
Trapezium, cuboid.
Flat
q Flat in appearance and so there are 2 surface in front and behind for these bones. For example, Bones of
2 thoracic cage, bones forming cranial vault.

q Fibula violates law of ossification
other type of Bones
q Pneumatic bones: Bones with air cavities. e.g. maxilla, frontal, sphenoid, ethmoid and mastoid. Applied Anatomy
q Sesamoid bones: Bones formed in tendons. q TB and syphilis begin in the middle of shaft (Diaphysis).
q Metaphysis is the m/c site of hematogenous osteomyelitis in children. Metaphysis is prone to trumatic necrosis
Blood supply of Long Bones and avascular necrosis.
q Nutrient artery: Enters nutrient foramen, which is formed in middle of shaft q Epiphysis is involved in Perthes disease
q Direction towards growing end of bone (metaphysics) q Hematogenous infection of bone m/c involves metaphysis of long bones
q Long bones are also supplied by periosteal arteries, metaphyseal arteries, epiphyseal arteries.
Fibrous Joint
q Space between bones are joined together by fibrous tissue.
q Hence, these joints are immovable.
q Classified into: Sutures, syndesmoses and gomphoses
Suture: Found in skull. Immovable according to shape of margins of bones, sutures are named in various
types
Syndesmoses: Bones are connected by interosseous ligaments
Gomphoses: Otherwise known as peg and socket
PREVIEW
synovial Joint
q Articular surface covered by Hyaline cartilage
q Synovial membrane lines entire joint except the articular surface
q Joint cavity is filled with synovial fluid
q Joint is covered by fibrous capsule
A. Syndesmosis (tibiofibular); B. Suture (skull), Cartilaginous; C. Symphysis (vertebral bodies); D. Synchondrosis (first rib Types
and sternum). Synovial; E. Condyloid (wrist); F. Gliding (radioulnar); G. Hinge or ginglymus (elbow); H. ball and socket
(hip); I. Saddle (carpometacarpal) of thumb); J. Pivot (atlantoaxial). q Plane: Articular surface are more or less plane. Permit gliding movement
q Hinge: Pulley shaped. Permit movement in one plane transverse axis
types of synovial Joints q Pivot: Formed by bony pivot surrounded by an osteoligamentous ring. Permit movement in one plane-vertical
axis
Hinge Pivot Condylar Ellipsoid q Condylar: Consists of 2 distinct condyles, in which one is reciprocally concave. Permit movement in transverse
q Interphalangeal q Atlanto-axial q Knee q Wrist joint, knuckle joint axis
q Joint of fingers and toes q Radioulnar q Temporomandibular and atlanto-occipital joint q Ellipsoid: Include convex male fitting into ellipsoid female. Permit movement in transverse axis, anteroposterior
q Elbow axis (not in vertical axis).
q Ankle q Saddle: Are reciprocally concavo convex
q Ball and Socket: Consists of globular head fitting into cup-shaped socket
Saddle Plane Ball and socket
q Carpometacarpal joint of thumb q Intercarpal joint q Shoulder joint Classification based on Function
q Sternoclavicular q Intertarsal joint q Hip joint q Immovable: No mobility
q Calcaneocuboid q Facet joint (between the q Talocalcaneo navicular joint q Slightly movable
q Joint between malleus and incus articular facet of adjacent q Articulation between incus and stapes 6 q Freely movable
vertebra)
