Transcript of Joints (2)
A joint or place of articulation and is formed where 2 or more bones come in close contact in the body and are attached to each other by ligaments or cartilage.
Tanveer Saeed
There are three types of joints classified by the amount of movement they allow:
Fibrous or Immovable----synarthrosis
Cartilaginous or slightly movable---Amphiarthrosis
Synovial or freely movable----diathrosis
Tanveer Saeed
Amphiarthrosis or Cartilaginous Joints This type of joint is characterized by
bones that are connected by hyaline cartilage (fibro cartilage) and ligaments which allow only a limited degree of movement.
Examples are the vertebrae cartilage in the symphysis which binds
the pubic bones together cartilage in the joint between the
sacrum and the hip bone. The ribs that connect to the sternum.
Tanveer Saeed
Most of the joints in the adult human body are freely movable joints.
There are six types of diarthroses joints:
Ball-and-Socket Condyloid Saddle Pivot Hinge Gliding

Articulating boneshyaline cartilage---- articular cartilage
capsular ligament.Synovial MembraneSynovial Cavity Synovial fluid
Tanveer Saeed
The capsular ligament is lined with a synovial membrane.
This membrane secretes synovial fluid into the synovial cavity
acts as a seal, waterproofing the joint,lubricates the joint.
In addition to the capsule, the bones are also attached and held together by strong, tough ligaments made of dense connective tissue. These ligaments prevent dislocation during normal movement.
Tanveer Saeed
Synovial joints can be subdivided into the following groups according to the type of movement they carry out.
All combinations of movements, including circumduction and rotationcan be performed.

Directions of movement ( ROM)Flexion - brings a body part forward. Extension - moves a body part to the rear. Abduction - moves an appendage laterally from the midline. Adduction - moves an appendage toward the midline. Circumduction - movement of an appendage in a circle around a joint. Pronation - rotating the palm of the hand downward. Supination - rotating the palm of the hand upward. Inversion - turning the toes of the foot inward. Eversion - turning the toes of the foot outward.
Tanveer Saeed
These joints are formed where the rounded head of one bone fits into the hollow, cup-shaped socket of another bone such as the shoulder joint and the hip joint. Such joints allow freedom of movement in all directions.
Ball-and-Socket
The Hip Joint - ball-and-socket joint.
. These joints occur where the convex surface of one bone fits into the concave surface of another bone, so making movement possible in one plane only e.g. flexion and extension as in the elbow and knee joints.
Examples of these joints are the : knee ,ankle and the elbow joints. Hinge joints have ligaments mainly at
the sides of the joints.
Tanveer Saeed
Oval shaped condyle fits into oval cup shaped end of another bone allowing angular motion but not rotation.
Flexion,extension,adduction,abduction and circumduction but no axial rotation.
Examples include: wrist joint Metacarpophalangeal
joints(Knuckles) Meta tarsophalangeal joints (toes)
Tanveer Saeed
This type of joint occurs when the touching surfaces of two bones have both concave and convex regions allowing rotation in two directions.
The only saddle joint in the body is in the thumb.
Tanveer Saeed
This type of joint allows for gliding movements between flat surfaces as the surfaces slide over one another. Only a limited amount of movement is allowed such as the joints between,
clavicles and the sternum the carpal bones the joints between the tarsal bones
Tanveer Saeed
These joints occur where:◦ a bony ring rotates round the
pivot (axis) of another bone such as the ring-like atlas rotating around the odontoid process of the axis, allowing the head to turn from side to side.
◦ the end of one bone rotates round the axis of another bone such as the end of the radius rotating around the ulna as the palm of the hand is turned inwards or outwards.Tanveer Saeed
