Ch 9/10 Joints

Summary of Vertebral Joints of C, T and L Spine

QuestionAnswer
What is joint between the skull and C1? atlantooccipital
What are the joints between C1 and C2? (right and left lateral and medial) atlantoaxial
What are the cartilaginous (symphysis) joints between C2-T12? intervertebral
What are the synovial joints between C2-T12? zygapophyseal
What are joints between T1-T12? costovertebral
What are the joints between T1-T10? costotransverse
Where is the medial joint of C1-C2 located? between the dens of C2 and anterior arch of C1
Where are the lateral, right and left, joints between C1-C2 located? between the lateral masses of C1 and superior facets of C2
Most of the vertebral joints of the C and T spine are classified as what? Describe snynovial (enclosed in a capsule that contains synovial fluid), diarthrodial (freely movable)
Which vertebral joint of the C and T spine is classified differently than the others. Explain intervertebral; cartilaginous (symphysis), amphiarthrodial (slightly movable) with no movement type
What type of movement does the atlanto-occipital joint of the skull and C1 have? ellipsoid (condyloid); flexion and extension, abduction and adduction, circumduction
What type of movement does the lateral atlantoaxial, joints between the lateral masses of C1 and superior facets of C2, have? plane (gliding); a sliding or gliding motion between the articulating surfaces with some rotational movement
What type of movement does the medial atlantoaxial joint between the dens of C2 and anterior arch of C1 have? trochoid (pivot); allows rotational movement around a single axis
What type of movement does the zygapophyseal (C2-T12), costovertebral (T1-T12) and costotransverse (T1-T10) joints have? plane (gliding); a sliding or gliding motion between the articulating surfaces with some rotational movement
What are the L-spine zygapophyseal joints classified as? What is the mobility type? What is the movement type? synovial (lined w/synovial membrane); diarthrodial (freely movable); plane (gliding)
What are the L-spine intervertebral joints classified as? What is the mobility type? What is the movement type? cartilaginous (symphysis); amphiarthrodial (slightly movable); no movement type
