MRI scan of head in sagittal plane. MR scan showing an enhancing mass which is a meningioma growing from the meninges at the edge of the foramen magnum. The tumour is benign but is causing compression of the brain stem and secondary hydrocephalus.

Introduction of the osteology Classification of bone Bones in adult are 206 in number. Bones are classified according to their position and shape. The position can be: skull bones of trunk appendicular skeleton Types of shape include: 1. long bone 2. short bone 3. flat bone 4. irregular bone
Introduction of the osteology 1. Long bones (found in limbs): Diaphysis or shaft , which is hollow (medullary cavity ,filled with bone marrow Two ends-epiphysis Articular surface Metaphysis Epiphysial cartilage Epiphysial line 2. Short bones: cuboidal in shape, e.g. carpal bones
Introduction of the osteology 3. Flat bones: thin, 4. Irregular bones: have any irregular or mixed shape, e.g. vertebrae, pneumatic bones * Sesamoid bones develop within tendon
General structures of bone Bony substance Periosteum Bone marrow
General structures of bone 1. Bony substance compact bone spongy bone Trabeculae
General structures of bone ※In the flat bones of the skull, the layers of compact bone are called the outer plate ,and inner plate , while the layer of spongy bone is called the diploë
General structures of bone 2. Periosteum : Outer or fibrous layer Inner layer is vascular and provides the underlying bone with nutrition. It also contains osteoblasts Endosteum is a single-cellular osteogenic layer lining the inner surface of bone. 3. Bone marrow Red marrow :haematopoietic 造血 Yellow marrow: fatty
Chemical composition and physical properties Organic material :the main one is collagen gives the bones resilience and toughness Inorganic salts : the main one is calcium phosphate give the bones hardness and rigidity Organic material Inorganic salts Children 1 Adult 3 7 Old 4
Ⅰ. Bones of trunk Composition: Vertebrae Sacrum Coccyx Sternum Ribs
1. Vertebrae Cervical vertebrae C. 7 Thoracic vertebrae T. 12 There are 33 vertebrae in children, arranged as follows: Cervical vertebrae C. 7 Thoracic vertebrae T. 12 Lumbar vertebrae L. 5 Sacral vertebrae S. 5 →sacrum Coccygeal vertebrae Co.3-4 →coccyx
1)General features of vertebra Vertebral body Vertebral arch pedicle of vertebral arch : sup. and inf. vertebral notch lamina of vertebral arch process (7): spinous process transverse process sup. and inf. articular processes Vertebral foramen Vertebral canal Intervertebral foramen
2)Regional variations of vertebrae
(1)Thoracic vertebrae Vertebrae Body : heart-shape, superior and inferior costal fovea Vertebral foramen: smaller, rounder Spinous processes: long, point obliquely downward Transverse processes: transverse costal fovea Articular processes: coronal
(2)Cervical vertebrae Vertebrae Body: small uncus of vertebral body Vertebral foramen: large and triangular in shape Spinous processes: short and bifid in C3 to C5, long in C6, and longer in C7 Transverse processes: short and bifid, transverse foramen Articular processes: horizontal
Atypical vertebeae Atlas (C1) Body and spinous process absent consists of anterior and posterior arches, and two lateral masses Groove for vertebral artery
Atypical vertebeae Axis (C2): Distinguished by dens Which articulates with dental fovea of anterior arch of atlas
Atypical vertebeae Carotid tubercle: anterior tubercle of transverse process of C6 Vertebra prominens (C7):contains long and non-bifid spinous process, it is visible with neck flexed, used as clinical landmark in counting cervical and thoracic spinous processes
(3)Lumbar vertebrae Vertebrae Body: larger, kidney-shape Vertebral foramen: larger and triangular Spinous processes: projects horizontally Transverse processes: long Articular processes: sagittal
Regional variations of vertebrae Cervical vertebrae Thoracic vertebrae Lumber vertebrae Body Small Heart-shape, have superior and inferior costal fovea for rib heads Larger, kidney-shape Vertebral foramen Larger and triangular Smaller, rounder Spinous processes Short and bifid in C3 to C5, long in C6,and longer in C7 Long, point obliquely downward Projects horizontally Transverse processes Short and bifid, transverse foramen Have transverse costal fovea for rib tubercles Long Articular processes Horizontal Coronal Sagittal
(4)Sacrum Anterior surface: Posterior surface: Lateral part: Promontory anterior sacral foramina (four pairs) Posterior surface: median sacral crest posterior sacral foramina sacral canal sacral hiatus sacral cornu Lateral part: auricular surface sacral tuberosity

2. Sternum Manubrium sterni Body of sternum Xiphoid process jugular notch clavicular notch Body of sternum Costal notches Xiphoid process
2. Sternum ★ Sternal angle : the junction of manubrium and body which connects 2nd costal cartilage laterally lies opposite lower border of T4 posteriorly
3. Ribs General features 12 pair Ribs 1~7 called true ribs Ribs 8~10 called false ribs Ribs 11~12 called floating ribs

Atypical rib First rib: tubercle for scalenus anterior sulcus for subclavian vein and artery 11th and 12th ribs lack costal necks, tubercles and angles
