Study Notes
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ)
- Bones: Formed by the squamous part of the skull and the condylar process of the mandible.
- Type: Composite joint (more than 2 articular surfaces).
- Ligaments (Small animals): Ligamentum laterale.
- Ligaments (Large animals): Ligamentum laterale and Ligamentum caudale.
- Species difference: Small animals (dogs, pigs) have one ligament; large animals (horses, oxen) have two.
Atlanto-occipital Joint
- Bones: Occipital bone and the first vertebrae.
- Type: Simple joint.
- Ligaments: Ligamentum laterale, membrane dorsale atlanto occipitalis, membrane ventrale atlanto occipitalis.
Atlanto-axial Joint
- Bones: Between the first and second vertebrae.
- Type: Simple joint.
- Ligaments (Inside the canal): Longitudinal ligament, right alar ligament.
- Ligaments (Dorsal aspect): Ligamentum atlantoaxiale dorsale.
- Ligaments (Ventral aspect): Ligamentum atlantoaxiale ventrale (only in ruminants and horses). In dogs and pigs: ligamentum transversum atlantis.
Articulations Between Adjacent Vertebrae
- Structures: Cartilages (discus intervertebrae) act as shock absorbers. Synovial joints in the articular processes.
- Long Ligaments: Three ligaments span the vertebral column; one on the spinal process, one inside the canal, and one on the ventral side.
- Short Ligaments: Connect adjacent vertebrae: interspinalia, intertransversia, and flava (yellow ligament).
Nuchal Ligament
- Structure: Two parts; funiculus nuchae (rope-like) and lamina nuchae (flat).
- Function: Supports the weight of the animal's head, relieving load from the head and neck muscles.
- Species Differences: Large animals (ox, horse pigs) have the same structure. Small animals (dogs, cats) have a shorter neck and thus do not have such a ligament.
Thoracic Vertebrae-Rib Articulations
- Bones: Between the ribs and thoracic vertebrae.
-
Types of Articulations: Two joints occur:
- Articularis capitis costae (between vertebrae and the head of the rib).
- Costotransverse articulation (between vertebrae and the neck of the rib).
- Ligaments: Capitis costae, costotransverse, and tuberculum ligaments connect the ribs to the vertebrae.
Shoulder Joint
- Bones: Scapula and the humerus.
- Type: Simple, multiaxial joint.
- Ligaments: Coracohumeral ligament. In carnivores, glenohumeral ligaments.
- Species Differences: Large mammals have one ligament (coracohumeral). Carnivores have two (glenohumeral).
- Birds: Specific peculiarities in the shoulder joint structures.
Elbow Joint
- Bones: Distal humerus and radius and ulna.
- Type: Composite, uniaxial joint.
- Ligaments: Collateral ligaments.
- Species differences: Collateral ligaments are present.
Carpal Joint
- Bones: Distal radius and ulna, the carpal bones, and proximal metacarpal bones.
- Type: Hinge, composite, uniaxial.
- Ligaments: Interosseous, intercarpea, and accessory ligaments.
- Species Differences: Species variation in ligament presence and arrangements exist between species.
Phalangeal Joints (Metacarpophalangeal, Proximal and Distal Interphalangeal Joints):
- Bones: Components of the joints include metacarpal, sesamoid, and phalangeal bones depending on the specific joint.
- Types: Uniaxial, composite, saddle.
- Ligaments: Collateral, sesamoid ligaments.
- Species Differences: Variations in the ligaments and articulations are seen in ruminants and carnivores.
Sacroiliac Joint
- Bones: Sacrum and the hip bone.
- Type: Simple, plane, tight joint (limited movement).
- Ligaments: Sacroiliac dorsale, sacrotuberale.
- Species Differences: In carnivores, the sacroiliac joint has two main ligaments.
Hip Joint (Coxal Joint)
- Bones: Hip bone (acetabulum) and femur.
- Type: Simple, multiaxial.
- Ligaments: Ligament of the head of the femur (strong).
- Species Differences: in birds particularities exist in the hip joint structures
Stifle Joint (Knee Joint)
- Bones: Femur, tibia, and fibula.
- Type:
- Ligaments:
- Species Differences:
Tarsal Joint
- Bones: Tibia, fibula, and metatarsal bones.
- Type:
- Ligaments:
- Species Differences:
Articular Cartilage
- Structure: Hyaline cartilage, no perichondrium.
- Zones: Superficial (tangential), intermediate, deep (radial), calcified.
- Function: Acts as a shock absorber for joints. Protects the bone and facilitates smooth movement
