Chapter 8: Axial and Appendicular Skeleton Two Major Divisions Axial Skeleton Appendicular Skeleton 1 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Two major divisions * axial skeleton - bones arranged along the longitudinal axis of the body * appendicular skeleton - upper and lower extremities (limbs or appendages) 2 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 3 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat SKULL * cranial bones (cranium) - enclose brain and sense organs - cranial vault or skull cap - cranial base: fossae * facial bones - form framework of face - contain sense organs (vision, taste, smell) - passageways for air and food - secure teeth - attachment of facial muscles 4 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Cranial bones frontal parietal temporal occipital sphenoid ethmoid 5 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Facial bones nasal maxilla zygomatic mandible lacrimal palatine inferior nasal conchae vomer 6 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 7 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 8 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 9 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 10 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Cranial Fossae * anterior fossa: - involves frontal, ethmoid, and sphenoid - holds frontal lobes over the top of the orbits and nasal cavity * middle fossa: - involves sphenoid, temporal, and parietal bones - holds temporal lobes of the brain posterior fossa: - involves temporal and occipital bones - holds the cerebellum, and lower end of brain stem 11 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 12 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Sutures - immovable joints found only between skull bones coronal sagittal lambdoid squamous - tiny bones found within sutures, variable number, common in lamboidal suture - represent additional ossification centers in expanding fetal skull ** Craniosynostoses 13 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 14 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Fontanels - spaces between the cranial bones in fetus and infants Major fontanels: anterior posterior sphenoidal (anterolateral) mastoid (posterolateral) - two major functions: - enable the fetal skull to compress as it passes through the birth canal - permit rapid growth of the brain during infancy 15 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 16 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Paranasal Sinuses - cavities in bones of the skull that communicate with the nasal cavity - lined by mucous membranes - serve to lighten the skull - serve as resonating chambers for speech - Sinusitis: inflammation of membranes due to infection or allergy ** blockage of the outlets into the nasal cavity may cause painful build-up of pressure in the sinuses - Cleft palate and cleft lip: ** due to lack of fusion of portions of the palatine and maxillary bones during fetal development 17 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 18 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat VERTEBRAL COLUMN - distributed into five regions: * cervical vertebrae * thoracic vertebrae * lumbar vertebrae * sacrum * coccyx 19 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 20 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Curvatures * give strength, support, and balance ** two primary: thoracic and sacral ** two secondary: cervical and lumbar Abnormal curves Spina bifida 21 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 22 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Intervertebral discs - cushion like pads - two parts: * inner semifluid nucleosus pulposus: - gives elasticity and compressibility * annulus fibrosus: - strong collar made of collagen anf fibrocartilage - holds successive vertebrae together - resists tension - allows various movements of the spine - herniated disc * annulus fibrosus may rupture * nucleosus pulposus protrudes * protrusion may compress spinal cord/spinal nerve; pain - percutaneous laser disc decompression 23 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat 24 Brief outlines only. For details, please refer to the Lecture Text on Top Hat Vertebrae - each consists of a; * body (centrum), * vertebral (neural) arch * several processes cervicals: * Atlas: no body (centrum) * Axis: dens or odontoid process thoracic lumbar sacral coccyx 25 Brief outlines only.
