|
Pubic symphysis |
Fibrocartilage in between the two ischium.
|
|
Intervertebral discs Pubic symphysis between ischium Knee joints |
Where is fibrocartilage found? |
|
Os Coxae |
Hip Bone is called |
|
Acetabulum |
Hip Joint Socket - Joins with proximal end of femur |
|
Pubic Angle |
- This is less in males - Lighter, shallowed in females (>100) |
|
Ilium |
Anatomy: - iliac crest and iliac fossa - greater sciatic notch contains sciatic nerve (long nerve for leg and foot) The bones you touch when you put your hands on your hips |
|
Femur |
Anatomy: - Nearly spherical head and constricted (Ligament to fovea capitis) - Greater and lesser trochanters for muscle attachment - Posterior ridge called linea aspera - Medial and lateral condyles and epicondyles on distal end |
|
Proximal end of tibia Proximal end of patella (triangular sesamoid) |
Distal end of femur forms joint end with (2) |
|
Tibia |
- Thick, weight bearing bone (medial) - Broad superior head with 2 flat articular surfaces (medial and lateral condyles - articulates with those of femur) - Roughened anterior surface palpated below patella (Tibial tuberosity) - Distal expansion: Medial malleolus - articulates with talus of foot (superior trochlear surface) |
|
Proximal head of Fibula Distal part of Femur |
Proximal part of Tibia forms joint end with |
|
Distal part of the tibia and fibula, the medial malleolus and lateral malleolus |
What makes up the bony projection on your ankle? |
|
Superior trochlea surface of Talus (The most superior tarsal bone) |
Distal end of tibia forms joint end with |
|
Fibula |
- Slender lateral strut stabilizes ankle - Does not bear body weight - spare bone tissue - Lateral malleolus: distal expansion - Joined to tibia by interosseous membrane |
|
Tarsal Bones |
- Shaped and arranged differently from carpal bones due to load-bearing role of ankle - Talus is most superior which forms ankle joint with tibia and fibula, sits upon calcaneus and articules with navicular - Calcaneus forms heel (achilles tendon) - Distal row of tarsal bones: cuboid, medial, intermediate and lateral cuneiforms |

Superior Articular Facet |
Skull articulates here at Occipital Condyle - Part of C1 Atlas - Allows "Yes" movement of head |
|
Dens |
Passes through vertebral foramen of C1 Atlas from C2 Axis - Allows "No" movement of head |
|
Cervical Vertebrae Characteristics |
- Branched spinous Process points inferiorly - Oval body that is wider side to side - Vertebral foramen is large and generally triangular - Each transverse process contains a transverse foramen through which vertebral arteries pass to service the brain |
|
Thoracic Vertebrae Characteristics |
- Vertebral foramen is circulae - Spinous process is long and points sharply downwards - The transverse processes have facets called transverse costal facets that articulate with the tubercles of ribs - Allows spine rotation |
|
