What else can I help you with?
What is the carpal bone the articulates with the tibia and fibula?
medial condyles
Are condyles only found int the axial skeleton?
Condyle is a rounded prominence at the end of a bone, most often used for articulation with another bone. Condyles can be found in numorous places in the body example: Knuckles TMJ ( Temporomandibular Joint/ aka Jaw) Vertebral Column In short, they can be found in both the axial and appendicular skeleton.
The occipital condyles lay on which bone?
The occipital condyles "lay on", or articulate with, the lateral masses of the first cervical vertebra, also known as atlas.
Which cranial bone houses the condyles that articulate with first cervical vertebra?
The occipital condyles of the occipital bones articulate with the first cervical vertebra.
What is a large rounded articulating knob?
A large rounded articulating knob is referred to as a condyle. It is a bone structure found at the end of a bone that forms an articulation (joint) with another bone, allowing for movement. Condyles are typically rounded and smooth, facilitating the gliding and rotation of bones within a joint, such as the femoral condyles in the knee.
Is the condyle a depression or projection?
projection. The bumps of bone around your knees and elbows are almost all called condyles.
Where is the femoral condyle located in the body?
The femoral condyles are located at the end of the femur bone, which is the thigh bone. They are the round prominences that articulate with the tibia bone in the knee joint.
What is subchondral?
Related to bone condyles that have swelling beneath the surface. The condyles are the rounded lumpy bits at the end of long thin bones: finger bones (phalanges) or thigh (femur). Subchondral odema occurs commonly when thes bones are forced together sometimes with repeated running on hard surfaces sub femoral or tibial chondral/plataeu or when staving your finger during basket ball straight finger compression. Can take a long time to settle but can settle to no symptoms.
Its oval-shaped protrusions articulate with the atlas?
The occipital condyles are oval-shaped structures on the occipital bone that articulate with the superior facets of the atlas (C1 vertebrae). This joint, called the atlanto-occipital joint, allows for flexion and extension of the head.
What articulates with the occiptal condyles?
The atlas articulates with the occiptal condyles.
The second phase in mouth opening and movement of the temporomandibular joint is?
translation of the mandibular condyles forward on the articular eminences of the temporal bone.
How do you differentiate medial and lateral condyle of femur bone without marker?
If you are viewing the entire bone, you can differentiate the medial and lateral condyles by noting that the medial condyle is on the side with the head of the femur, and the lateral is on the side with the greater trochanter. If you have only the distal end of the femur available, then you can differentiate the condyles by noting that the medial condyle is longer and the lateral condyle is wider.
