The A to Z of Bones, Joints, Ligaments & the Back
Introduction This book is particularly useful when used with the A to Z of Peripheral Nerves and The A to Z of Skeletal Muscles, parts of the material is also covered in the A to Z of the Head & Neck bones & muscles but all the A to Zs are cross-referenced and together are forming a set covering the all structural elements of the human body. Now as an adjunct to this book – the first in the series of the new The A to Z of…failure books is the The A to Z of Bone and Joint Failure, which builds upon the knowledge of the material in this book. Eventually there will be a companion book to each of the current and future A to Zs - the sick and the well.

So... If there is a structure / subject you want to see in the A to Zs let us know, as the feedback often determines the order of the new books. The A to Zs may be viewed on 2 sites – www.amandasatoz.com and http://www.aspenpharma.com.au/atlas/student.htm

How to use this book The first section consists of the basic anatomical concepts, movement planes, classification and definitions of all terms discussed in this book. Additional images of articulated bones are included to help with regionalization, and colour tags added to the base of each page to remind the reader where the bone or joint is located. Bones, Joints and Ligaments are then listed alphabetically and cross referenced with their common names (e.g. the SHOULDER © A. L. Neill

The A to Z of Bones, Joints, Ligaments & the Back
JOINT is the GLENOHUMERAL JOINT and the COLLAR BONE is the CLAVICLE). Each bone and joint is shown from at least 2 aspects. Throughout the book, bones or groups of bones are also shown “in situ”, or as an “overview” to relate them to the whole body structure, in other words as they lay in body or cavity anatomically. For example the RIBS together form the RIB CAGE and anatomically this bony structure is the way the ribs function. There is a separate section at the back to discuss the BACK!
ll i e
And even the back cover has been modified so that there is an additional fold over which serves as a means of identifying the book on the shelf (i.e. the fold over has the title down the “spine”). Books can now be placed on the shelf and still identified. The fold over is also a fold in if not used as a book mark it can be folded in on itself and lays flat on the cover.
Thank you A. L. Neill BSc MSc MBBS PhD FACBS

Common terms in Osteology and Skeletal Anatomy Ablation
The removal of part of the body, generally a bony part, most commonly the teeth. Acral in the extremities - bones at the apex or end of limbs. Acromegaly A continuation of growth of the ends of cartilage covered bone (after fusion of the long bones) hence a gross change in the features (most noticeable in the jaw and digits) without growth in height, due mainly to the over activity of the pituitary gland. Ala A wing, hence a wing-like process as in the Ethmoid bone pl. - alae. Alveolus Air filled bone - tooth socket adj. - alveolar (as in air filled bone in the maxilla) - coalescence of alveoli helps in the formation of the sinuses. This device also lightens the weight of the bone particularly the skull. Ankle Bend = angle usually referring to the bend just above the foot, hence the ankle is the joint b/n the foot and the lower leg. Annulus fibrosis The peripheral fibrous ring around the intervertebral disc. Aperture An opening or space between bones or within a bone. Appendicular Refers to the appendices of the axial i.e. in the skeleton, the limbs upper and lower which hang from the axial skeleton, this also includes the pectoral and pelvic girdles but not the sacrum. Areola Small, open spaces as in the areolar part of the Maxilla may lead or develop into sinuses. ArthTo do with joints hence… Arthritis Inflammation of a joint.

Avulsion Forceable tearing away of a structure or part of a structure as in an avulsed fracture where a fragment bone is torn away from the main bone. Axial Refers to the head and trunk (vertebrae, ribs and sternum) of the body.

Fracture = break hence … Avulsed fracture - bone break due to a tearing away of part of a bone under stress. Complete fracture - complete break b/n 1 or more bones.

Incomplete = Greenstick fracture - where there is an incomplete break along with bending or changing of the bone shape: it is generally seen in in young bones. Pathological fracture - a break which has to do with a disease, generally thinning of the bone for example in osteoporosis or weakening due to a tumour as in osteosarcoma or from other causes as in osteomalacia (Paget's disease) and causes the bone to break with little or no force.

The A to Z of Bones, Joints, Ligaments & the Back
Structure of Bone Tissue Bone is a tissue. It contains osteocytes (mature bone cells -1), osteoblasts (new bone cells -2), osteoclasts (resident monocytes) which may combine to form GIANT cells (3) to remodel bone which occurs constantly. The tissue may be packaged as COMPACT bone = dense bone for major weight-bearing areas as in the Long bones or as CANCELLOUS bone = spongy bone = trabechular bone, which is present in the axial skeleton and at the heads of most Long bones. The density of bone is changing all the time. It is one of the most dynamic tissues in the body constantly forming and reforming its structure. Its repair capacity is extensive, but changes in body demands, diet and disease states will affect its integrity. Loss of bone = Osteoporosis Excess deposition of bone = Osteopetrosis Deposition of bone in ectopic sites = Ossification

It is surrounded by an outer fascial layer – Periosteum (4) and an inner fascial layer – Endostium (5) and has a central cavity filled with Bone Marrow (BM) – either filled with fat cells – YELLOW BM – or haemopoietic tissue (cells related to forming the blood and its component cells) – RED BM. The bone is laid down in circular layers or lamellae (6L) with a central core (6c) for the BS, called HAVERSION systems (7).

CANCELLOUS BONE - B This consists of long trabeculae or spicules of bone laid along pressure lines surrounded by haemopoietic tissue – RED BM (8). It is highly mobile; the first to be mobilized for mineral needs or changing body function, and gives support to the compact bone.

Classification of Bones Flat bones
Thin flattened and usually curved bones: most Skull bones, Scapula, Manubrium generally surrounded by a layer of compact bone with cancellous or spongy bone in b/n.
Irregular bones Various shapes not easily classified Sphenoid, Vertebrae, Hip, Ear Bones irregular growth centres. Long bones
These bones are long with a shaft = diaphysis and 2 ends epiphyses. They have growth centres at each end and grow lengthwise over years via their growth plates at the metaphyses, e.g.: most limb bones: Femur, Fibula Humerus, Radius, Tibia, Ulna, & digits Phalanges. See diagram.
ll i e
Pneumatic bone/Alveolar bones Bones filled with air to lighten their weight Maxilla, Frontal, Mandible, Ethmoid and bones with “sinuses”.
a d n
N
Sesamoid bones are completely surrounded by soft tissue w/o joints e.g. Hyoid. small bones around the thumb and big toe. Short bones
Roughly cubic in shape. Most wrist Carpal and ankle Tarsal bones; many of the bones at the base of the skull.
Sutural bones
= “Wormian” bones are small bones which occur w/in the skull sutures. They are sometimes called extra-sutural if the main part f the bone is outside of the suture. They are unnamed, except the Incus - the largest extra-sutural bone.
There are:
There are between 600 and 620 bones in the body including the various sesamoid and Wormian bones and other areas where there may be separate or ossified joints. 22 paired skull bones including the ear ossicles / not including the teeth. 5 single bones mainly on the base of the skull. 1 mandible. 1 hyoid. variable sutural & extra-sutural bones (generally between 3-5).
© There are:
a
D
m rA
56 digit bones or Phalanges plus an additional 3 to 4 small sesamoid bones in the foot over the big toe and the thumb.
Each limb has a single long bone proximally (arm and thigh), a hinge joint and 2 bones distally (the forearm and shin) joined by an interosseous upper membrane ligament. Each pair of limbs is supported by a GIRDLE of supporting bones the PECTORAL GIRDLE and the lower PELVIC GIRDLE.
