periosteum
tough, fibrous tissue that forms the outermost covering of bone
medullary cavity
in shaft, surrounded by compact bone,
articular cartilage
covers the epiphysis on both ends
meniscus
curved fibrous cartilage in knee and temporomandibular joint
cartilaginous joint
slight movement ( costocartilage, pubic symphasis)
synovial
capsule, then membrane, then fluid
ligament
bone to bone or bone to cartilage
bursa
fibrous sac that cushions to ease movement in areas that are subject to friction(shoulder,elbow,knee)
olecranon process
funny bone
ankylosis
loss or absence of mobility in a joint, (disease,injury or surgical procedures)
arthrosclerosis
stiffness in the joints, mostly prevalent in elderly
chdromalacia
abnormal softening of cartilage
hallux valgus
bunion
luxation
dislocation,total displacement of a joint from bone
subluxation
partial displacement of joint from bone
osteoarthritis
wear and tear arthritis, usually comes with aging
spondylosis
spinal arthritis
gouty arthritis
deposits of uric acid in joints
rheumatiod arthritis
autoimmune that attacks joints, so they thicken and swell to immobility
ankylosing spondylitis
RA between vertebrae
kyphosis
owtward curve (hunchback)
lordosis
inward curve(lumbar)
scoliosis
s shape
craniostenosis
malformation of skull due to premature closure of sutures
fibrous dysplasia
bone disorder,destroyes normal bone structure,replaces with scar-like tissue
ostealgia
pain in bone
osteitis
inflammation of bone
osteomalacia
softening of bone
osteomyelitis
inflammation of bone marrow and adjacent bone
Paget's Disease
unknown cause,excessive breakdown of bone tissue. bone is structurally enlarged, but weakened and filled with new blood vessels
talipes
clubfoot, involving the talus
myeloma
cancer of the immunoglobulins in red marrow( makers of blood)
osteochondroma
benign bony projection covered with cartilage
osteopenia
thinner than average bone density in young prson, at greater risk for getting osteoporosis
compression fracture
vertebral crush
simple or completev fracture
bone is broken, but not through the skin
compound fracture
broken bone, through the skin
comminuted fracture
bone is splintered or crushed
incomplete fracture
greenstick, bone is bent and partially broken, ( kids mostly)
oblique fracture
angle across the bone
crepitation
grating soung when broken bone rubs against each other ( lungs with pneumonia also)
callus
bulging deposit around bone during healing
arthrodesis
surgical fusion of bone to joint
arthrolysis
surgical looseninf of joint
