Study Notes
- Echte und unechte Gelenke werden unterteilt in „true“ and „false“ joints.
- True joints are characterized by the presence of a “filling material” between the two bones, while false joints are limited in movement.
- An example of a true joint is the shoulder joint, which is surrounded by a protective cartilage layer.
- In contrast, unechte joints, such as the shoulder joint, are limited in movement due to the lack of a joint space.
- Gelenkspalt is a space between the two bones in a true joint, while in an unechte joint, there is no joint space.
- Bands, tendons, and muscles provide support and directionality to the lateral joint movement in true joints, while in unechte joints, these structures are limited.
- Various joint cartilages allow for different movement patterns.
- The ability to move only forwards and backwards and in all directions is due to the different joint cartilages that the body is equipped with.
