Study Notes
Introduction to Anatomy
- Course material presented by Prof. Amjad Al-Shatarat, Department of Biomedical Sciences, Aqaba Medical Sciences University, 2024.
Shoulder Girdle
- Composed of the clavicle and scapula.
- The clavicle has two ends: acromial (lateral) and sternal (medial).
- The clavicle articulates medially with the manubrium of the sternum and laterally with the acromion of the scapula.
Scapula
- Contains the acromion process, coracoid process, and glenoid cavity.
- The glenoid cavity articulates with the head of the humerus to form the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint.
Bones of the Upper Limbs
- Each upper limb consists of the humerus, radius, ulna, carpals, metacarpals, and phalanges.
Humerus
- The bone of the arm.
- Has an upper end, lower end, and a shaft.
- The upper end includes the head, anatomical neck, surgical neck, greater tubercle, and lesser tubercle.
- The lower end includes the medial epicondyle, lateral epicondyle, capitulum, and trochlea.
Forearm Bones (Ulna and Radius)
- The ulna is medial, and the radius is lateral in the forearm.
- The ulna has an olecranon, trochlear notch, coronoid process, and ulnar tuberosity.
- The radius has a head, neck, and radial tuberosity.
Wrist Bones (Carpals)
- The carpals are arranged in two rows: proximal and distal.
- The proximal row consists of scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, and pisiform.
- The distal row consists of trapezium, trapezoid, capitate, and hamate.
- These bones facilitate precise hand movements.
Hand Bones (Metacarpals and Phalanges)
- The metacarpals lead to the phalanges (finger bones).
Hip Bone
- Composed of three bones: ilium, ischium, and pubis.
- Triradiate cartilage joins these bones at the acetabulum.
- The hip bones articulate with the sacrum posteriorly, and with each other anteriorly at the symphysis pubis.
Femur
- The thigh bone.
- Has an upper end (head, neck, greater trochanter, lesser trochanter), a shaft/body, and a lower end (medial and lateral condyles, medial and lateral epicondyles).
Patella
- A triangular sesamoid bone within the patellar ligament.
Tibia
- The shin bone, with an upper end (lateral and medial condyles, tibial tuberosity), a shaft/body, and a lower end (medial malleolus).
Fibula
- Lateral bone of the lower leg (has a head, neck, and lateral malleolus).
Foot Bones (Tarsals, Metatarsals, Phalanges)
- Tarsals include calcaneus, talus, cuboid, navicular and cuneiform bones
- Metatarsals lead to the phalanges (toe bones).
Foot Arches
- The arches of the foot distribute body weight effectively.
- The arches are usually fully developed by age 12 or 13.
- The key arches are medial longitudinal, lateral longitudinal, and transverse.
Flat Foot
- A condition where the medial longitudinal arch is flattened or collapsed.
- Causes can be congenital or acquired.
