Anatomy Chapter 9 Packet

3. Inflammation of a bursa, causing pain whenever the associated tendon or ligament moves
6. joint A freely movable joint where the opposing bone surfaces are separated by synovial fluid; a diarthrosis
7. A fibrous joint between flat bones of the skull
9. ligaments These ligaments reinforce the knee joint's posterior surface
11. An arthritic condition affecting multiple articulations
12. An articulation that permits a small degree of independent movement
16. A fibrous synarthrosis that binds a tooth to the bone of the jaw
17. A synarthrosis formed through the fusion of the articulating elements
18. capsule The dense collagen fiber sleeve that surrounds a joint and provides protection and stabilization
20. Inflammation of a joint
23. A joint; the formation of words
24. disc A common name for a condition caused by distortion of an intervertebral disc
25. A fibrous amphiarthrosis, such as that between adjacent vertebrae or between the public bones of the coxae
27. An arthritic condition affecting a single articulation
29. A fibrous amphiarthrosis
30. A therapeutic procedure involving passive movement of an injured joint to stimulate circulation of synovial fluid.
31. arthritis An inflammatory arthritis that affects roughly 2.5 percent of the adult U.S population

1. The most common pressure-related bursitis, involving a tender nodule formed around bursae over the base of the great toe
2. A dislocation; a condition in which the articulating surfaces are forced out of position
4. A joint that does not permit relative movement between the articulating elements
5. A partial dislocation; displacement of articulating surfaces sufficient to cause discomfort but resulting in less physical damage to the joint than occurs during a dislocation
8. disc A condition caused by intervertebral compression severe enough to rupture the annulus fibrosus and release the nucleus pulposus, which may protude the intervertebral space
10. A cartilaginous synarthrosis, such as the articulation between the epiphysis and diaphysis of a growing bone
13. An arthritic condition resulting from (1) cumulative wear and tear on joint surfaces or (2) genetic predisposition
14. The surgical removal of a damaged meniscus
15. A condition caused when a ligament is stretched to the point at which some of the collagen fibers are torn
19. An abnormal fusion between articulating bones in repsonse to trauma and friction within a joint.
21. A condition characterized by pain in muscles, tendons, bones, or joints
22. A synovial joint
26. separation The partial or complete dislocation of the acromioclavicular joint
28. Removal of verterbal laminae; may be performed to acess the vertebral canal and relieve symptoms of a herniated disc
