Sesamoid Bones





Sesamoid bones are usually short or irregular bones, imbedded in a tendon. The most obvious example of this is the Patella (knee cap) which sits within the Patella or Quadriceps tendon. Other sesamoid bones are the pisiform (smallest of the Carpals) and the two small bones at the base of the 1st Metatarsal. Sesamoid bones are usually present in a tendon where it passes over a joint which serves to protect the tendon. Types of Joints

A joint is the point where two or more bones meet. Tough bands of connective tissue called ligaments hold the bones of a joint in place. A tendon is a tough band of fibrous connective tissue that usually connects muscle to bone and is capable of withstanding tension. Tendons are similar to ligaments and fascia as they are both made of collagen except that ligaments join one bone to another bone, and fascia connect muscles to other muscles. Tendons and muscles work together and can only exert a pulling force.

There are three main types of joints (see Figure 1): Fibrous (immoveable), Cartilaginous (partially moveable) and Synovia l (freely moveable).

Fibrous: This type of joint is held together by only a ligament. Examples are where the teeth are held to their bony sockets and at both the radioulnar and tibiofibular joints.

Cartilaginous: These joints occur where the connection between the articulating bones is made up of cartilage, for example between vertebrae in the spine.

Synovial: Synovial joints are by far the most common classification of joint within the human body. They are highly moveable and all have a synovial capsule (collagenous structure) surrounding the entire joint, a synovial membrane (the inner layer of the capsule) which secretes synovial fluid (a lubricating liquid) and cartilage known as hyaline cartilage which pads the ends of the articulating bones.

 

Joint Examples Type Movement at joint
    Hinge     Flexion / Extension Elbow / Knee
    Pivot     Rotation of one bone around another Top of the neck (atlas and axis bones)
    Ball and Socket   Flexion / Extension / Adduction / Abduction / Internal and External Rotation Shoulder / Hip
  Saddle   Flexion/Extension/Adduction/ Abduction/Circumduction joint of the thumb
  Condyloid     Flexion / Extension / Adduction / Abduction / Circumduction Wrist joints
    Gliding     Gliding movements Intercarpal joints
