8.5 Selected Synovial Joints
• Synovial joints are diverse
• All have general features, but some also have unique structural
features, abilities, and weaknesses
• Five main synovial joints
– Knee
– Shoulder
– Elbow
– Hip
– Jaw
© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.
Knee Joint
• Largest, most complex joint of body
• Consists of three joints surrounded by single cavity
1. Femoropatellar joint
• Plane joint
• Allows gliding motion during knee flexion
2. Lateral joint and 3. Medial joint
• Lateral and medial joints together are called tibiofemoral joint
• Joint between femoral condyles and lateral and medial menisci of tibia
• Hinge joint that allows flexion, extension, and some rotation when knee
partly flexed

Knee Joint (cont.)
• Joint capsule is thin and absent anteriorly
• Anteriorly, quadriceps tendon gives rise to three broad ligaments
that run from patella to tibia
– Medial and lateral patellar retinacula that flank the patellar
ligament
• Doctors tap patellar ligament to test knee-jerk reflex
• At least 12 bursae associated with knee joint

Knee Joint (cont.)
• Capsular, extracapsular, or intracapsular ligaments act to
stabilize knee joint
• Capsular and extracapsular ligaments help prevent
hyperextension of knee
– Fibular and tibial collateral ligaments: prevent rotation when
knee is extended
– Oblique popliteal ligament: stabilizes posterior knee joint
– Arcuate popliteal ligament: reinforces joint capsule posteriorly

Knee Joint (cont.)
• Intracapsular ligaments reside within capsule, but outside
synovial cavity
• Help to prevent anterior-posterior displacement
– Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)
• Attaches to anterior tibia
• Prevents forward sliding of tibia and stops hyperextension of knee
– Posterior cruciate ligament
• Attaches to posterior tibia
• Prevents backward sliding of tibia and forward sliding of femur

Clinical – Homeostatic Imbalance 8.1
• Knee absorbs great amount of vertical force; however, it is
vulnerable to horizontal blows
– Common knee injuries involved the 3 C’s:
• Collateral ligaments
• Cruciate ligaments
• Cartilages (menisci)
– Lateral blows to extended knee can result in tears in tibial collateral
ligament, medial meniscus, and anterior cruciate ligament
– Injuries affecting just ACL are common in runners who change
direction, twisting ACL
– Surgery usually needed for repairs

Shoulder (Glenohumeral) Joint
• Most freely moving joint in body
• Stability is sacrificed for freedom of movement
• Ball-and-socket joint
– Large, hemispherical head of humerus fits in small, shallow glenoid
cavity of scapula
• Like a golf ball on a tee
• Articular capsule enclosing cavity is also thin and loose
– Contributes to freedom of movement

Shoulder (Glenohumeral) Joint (cont.)
• Glenoid labrum: fibrocartilaginous rim around glenoid cavity
– Helps to add depth to shallow cavity
– Cavity still only holds one-third of head of humerus
• Reinforcing ligaments
– Primarily on anterior aspect
– Coracohumeral ligament
• Helps support weight of upper limb
– Three glenohumeral ligaments
• Strengthen anterior capsule, but are weak support

Shoulder (Glenohumeral) Joint (cont.)
• Reinforcing muscle tendons contribute most to joint stability
– Tendon of long head of biceps brachii muscle is “superstabilizer”
• Travels through intertubercular sulcus
• Secures humerus to glenoid cavity
– Four rotator cuff tendons encircle the shoulder joint
• Subscapularis
• Supraspinatus
• Infraspinatus
• Teres minor

Elbow Joint
• Humerus articulates with radius and ulna
• Hinge joint formed primarily from trochlear notch of ulna
articulating with trochlea of humerus
– Allows for flexion and extension only
• Anular ligament surrounds head of radius
• Two capsular ligaments restrict side-to-side movement
– Ulnar collateral ligament
– Radial collateral ligament

Hip (Coxal) Joint
• Ball-and-socket joint
• Large, spherical head of the femur articulates with deep cup-
shaped acetabulum
• Good range of motion, but limited by the deep socket
– Acetabular labrum: rim of fibrocartilage that enhances depth of
socket (hip dislocations are rare)

Hip (Coxal) Joint (cont.)
• Reinforcing ligaments include:
– Iliofemoral ligament
– Pubofemoral ligament
– Ischiofemoral ligament
– Ligament of head of femur (ligamentum teres)
• Slack during most hip movements, so not important in stabilizing
• Does contain artery that supplies head of femur
• Greatest stability comes from deep ball-and-socket joint

Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ)
• Jaw joint is a modified hinge joint
• Mandibular condyle articulates with temporal bone
– Posterior temporal bone forms mandibular fossa, while anterior
portion forms articular tubercle
• Articular capsule thickens into strong lateral ligament
© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.
Temporomandibular Joint (TMJ) (cont.)
• Two types of movement
– Hinge: depression and elevation of mandible
– Gliding: side-to-side (lateral excursion) grinding of teeth
• Most easily dislocated joint in the body

Clinical – Homeostatic Imbalance 8.2
• Dislocation of TMJ is most common because of shallow socket of
joint
• Almost always dislocates anteriorly, causing mouth to remain
open
– To realign, physician must push mandible back into place
© 2016 Pearson Education, Inc.
Clinical – Homeostatic Imbalance 8.2
• Symptoms: ear and face pain, tender muscles, popping sounds
when opening mouth, joint stiffness
• Usually caused by grinding teeth, but can also be due to jaw
trauma or poor occlusion of teeth
– Treatment for grinding teeth includes bite plate
– Relaxing jaw muscles helps
