Position of the lnner Organs, Palpable Points, and Regional Lines

At the dorsal side of the body, the posterior spines of the

vertebral column, the ribs, the scapula, the sacrum, and

the iliac crest are palpable. Lines of orientation are the

paravertebral line, the scapular line, the posterior axillary

line, and the iliac crest.

The ossification of the bones of the limbs starts within

the ossification centers of the primary cartilagenous

bones. Here, the medullary cavity develops. The ossification process of limb bones is not finished at birth.

Skeleton of right wrist and hand (medial aspect).

The metacarpophalangeal joints are biaxial, as is

the carpometacarpal joint of the thumb (✽ in the

figure). The joints of the fingers, however, are

monaxial.

Joints exhibit a variety of functions. In

general, mobility becomes reduced in the

direction from proximal to distal. The hip

joint, e.g., is multiaxial; the knee joint is

biaxial, and the joints of toes and fingers are

monaxial.

Pivot joint

(e.g. radio-ulnar joint).

Hinge joint

(e.g. humero-ulnar joint). Left: extension, right: flexion.

Arrows: axes of movement.

Saddle joint

(e.g. carpometacarpal joint of

the thumb).
