spondylosyndesis - spinal fusion, from -spondyl- meaning "vertebra" + syn- "with, together" + -desis"binding". Too extreme? There's spondyloarthrocace, lit. vertebra joint badness, or spondylopathy, lit. vertebra disease or suffering, or rachiopathy, also vertebra disease or suffering.

(The two medical word parts that mean vertebra are spondyl- and rachi-.)

Where Slightly movable joints can be found?

Slightly movable joints can be found in areas such as the vertebral column and the pubic symphysis in the pelvis. These joints allow for limited movement and provide stability and support to the body.


Where are the apophyseal joints located?

The apophyseal joints are synovial joints in the vertebral column, between the superior or cranial articular process of one vertebra and the inferior or caudal articular process of the vertebra directly above it. See the link below:


In which type of joint are the vertebral discs that allow twisting turning and sliding?

The vertebral discs are found in the intervertebral joints, which are classified as cartilaginous joints. These discs, made of fibrocartilage, provide cushioning and allow for limited movement, including twisting, turning, and sliding between the vertebrae. This flexibility is essential for the overall mobility of the spine.


What are the main joints?

The types of joints are:immovable joints (synarthrosis). These can be found between the skull bones for example.slightly moveable (amphiarthrosis). These can be found between the vertebral disks.freely moveable (diarthrosis). These can be found in the knee or hip or elbow.


What joint are the vertebral disks that allow twisting turning and sliding?

The joints between the vertebral disks that allow twisting, turning, and sliding are the facet joints, also known as zygapophyseal joints. These are synovial joints located between the articular processes of adjacent vertebrae. They enable a range of movements in the spine, including rotation and lateral bending, while providing stability and support. The intervertebral disks themselves act as shock absorbers and allow for some degree of movement between the vertebrae.

What is the difference in articulation between the skull and the vertebral column of a rat and a human?

The articulations of the human skull and vertebral column consist of a series of amphiarthrodial joints between the vertebral bodies, and a series of diathrodial joints between the vertebral arches. The articulations of the rat skull and vertebral column consist of cervical vertebrae which have small, transverse processes containing a hole through which nerves and blood vessels pass.


What are the joints between the vertebrae of the backbone?

The joints between the vertebrae of the backbone are called intervertebral joints. These joints are formed by the articulation of the vertebral bodies and the intervertebral discs, which help provide stability, flexibility, and cushioning to the spine.
