Fibrous joint
SYNOVIAL JOINT:
Capsular ligament, thickness varies from joint to joint
Joint capsule
Fibrous layer
Synovial membrane
Synovial fluid
SYNOVIAL JOINT:
Two-layered structure surrounding the joint
Joint capsule
Fibrous layer
Synovial membrane
Synovial fluid
SYNOVIAL JOINT:
Highly vascular, nerve rich and produces synovial fluid
Joint capsule
Joint cavity
Synovial membrane
Articular cartilage
Strong bands of white fibrous tissue uniting bones that function to keep joint surfaces in apposition
Ligaments
Bursa
Synovial fluid
Meniscus/Disc
SYNOVIAL JOINT:
Viscous liquid produced by the synovial membrane to lubricate the joint
Joint capsule
Synovial fluid
Synovial membrane
Articular cartilage
SYNOVIAL JOINT:
Removes waste from the hyaline articular cartilage
Joint capsule
Synovial fluid
Synovial membrane
Articular cartilage
Ligament type:
Located within the joint capsule,
Not considered in the joint space because the synovial membrane reflects over them
Intracapsular ligament
Synchondrosis
Extracapsular ligament
Syntosis
Serves like a cushion to lessen impact or pressure between two bones
Bursa
Joint cavity
Meniscus/Disc
Synovial sheath
Structure similar to a bursa that is wrapped completely around a tendon
Bursa
Joint cavity
Meniscus/Disc
Synovial sheath
A unique feature of a synovial joint,
It is a little more than a potential space containing a trace of synovial joint
Bursa
Joint cavity
Meniscus/Disc
Synovial sheath
Found only in the stifle and temporo-mandibular joints which allows greater variety of motion and alleviate concussion
Bursa
Joint cavity
Meniscus/Disc
Synovial sheath
A sac-like structure found between different tissues which reduces friction between these tissues
Bursa
Joint cavity
Meniscus/Disc
Synovial sheath
Clinical anatomy:
A joint formed in an unreduced or unhealed fracture having all the structures of a synovial joint
Bursitis
Excess synovial fluid
False joints
Luxation/Dislocations
Clinical anatomy:
Since synovial fluid in healthy animals is minimal, the amount of fluid indicates the state of health of the joint
Bursitis
Excess synovial fluid
False joints
Luxation/Dislocations
