From his breakout role as Thomas Magnum in Magnum P.I. to his current portrayal of Frank Reagan in Blue Bloods. Selleck's career has spanned over 50 years. But beyond his professional achievements. fans have often been curious about Tom Selleck Health. especially as he has aged in the public eye.
Follow us on: Pinterest
Introduction
Many have been interested in Tom Selleck health. not only because of his enduring presence on screen but also because of the challenges. and lifestyle choices he has faced and made over the years. This article delves into the various aspects of Tom Selleck health. exploring his fitness regimen, diet, mental health. and the challenges he has encountered as he ages. We'll look at how he maintains his well-being. the health issues he has faced, and his approach to ageing .
Early Life and Career
Childhood and Athletic Beginnings
Tom Selleck was born on January 29, 1945, in Detroit, Michigan, and grew up in Sherman Oaks, California. From an early age, he was involved in sports, particularly basketball. which played a significant role in his physical development. His athletic pursuits continued into college. where he attended the University of Southern California (USC) on a basketball scholarship. This early involvement in sports laid a strong foundation for his physical health and disciplined lifestyle.
Transition to Acting
Selleck's transition from an athlete to an actor came with its physical demands. His first significant role in "Magnum P.I." required him to perform various stunts and maintain a fit appearance. This role, which he played from 1980 to 1988. necessitated a rigorous fitness routine to meet the show's demands. setting the stage for his long-term commitment to health and wellness.
Fitness Regimen
Workout Routine
Tom Selleck health and fitness regimen has evolved. adapting to his changing roles and age. During his "Magnum, P.I." days. Selleck's workouts were intense and focused on building and maintaining muscle mass. His routine included weightlifting, cardiovascular exercises. and specific training for the stunts he performed on the show.
Selleck adjusted his fitness routine as he aged to suit his body's needs. Today, his workouts focus on maintaining flexibility, strength, and cardiovascular health. He incorporates low-impact exercises such as swimming, walking, and light weightlifting. This balanced approach helps him stay fit without putting undue strain on his joints and muscles.
Importance of Flexibility and Mobility
In recent years, Selleck has emphasized the importance of flexibility and mobility in his fitness regimen. Understanding the natural decline in muscle mass and joint flexibility with age. he includes stretching and yoga in his routine. These practices help prevent injuries, improve posture, and maintain mobilit
Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Lung Cancer: Artificial Intelligence, Synergetics, Complex System Analysis, S...Oleg Kshivets
RESULTS: Overall life span (LS) was 2252.1±1742.5 days and cumulative 5-year survival (5YS) reached 73.2%, 10 years – 64.8%, 20 years – 42.5%. 513 LCP lived more than 5 years (LS=3124.6±1525.6 days), 148 LCP – more than 10 years (LS=5054.4±1504.1 days).199 LCP died because of LC (LS=562.7±374.5 days). 5YS of LCP after bi/lobectomies was significantly superior in comparison with LCP after pneumonectomies (78.1% vs.63.7%, P=0.00001 by log-rank test). AT significantly improved 5YS (66.3% vs. 34.8%) (P=0.00000 by log-rank test) only for LCP with N1-2. Cox modeling displayed that 5YS of LCP significantly depended on: phase transition (PT) early-invasive LC in terms of synergetics, PT N0—N12, cell ratio factors (ratio between cancer cells- CC and blood cells subpopulations), G1-3, histology, glucose, AT, blood cell circuit, prothrombin index, heparin tolerance, recalcification time (P=0.000-0.038). Neural networks, genetic algorithm selection and bootstrap simulation revealed relationships between 5YS and PT early-invasive LC (rank=1), PT N0—N12 (rank=2), thrombocytes/CC (3), erythrocytes/CC (4), eosinophils/CC (5), healthy cells/CC (6), lymphocytes/CC (7), segmented neutrophils/CC (8), stick neutrophils/CC (9), monocytes/CC (10); leucocytes/CC (11). Correct prediction of 5YS was 100% by neural networks computing (area under ROC curve=1.0; error=0.0).
CONCLUSIONS: 5YS of LCP after radical procedures significantly depended on: 1) PT early-invasive cancer; 2) PT N0--N12; 3) cell ratio factors; 4) blood cell circuit; 5) biochemical factors; 6) hemostasis system; 7) AT; 8) LC characteristics; 9) LC cell dynamics; 10) surgery type: lobectomy/pneumonectomy; 11) anthropometric data. Optimal diagnosis and treatment strategies for LC are: 1) screening and early detection of LC; 2) availability of experienced thoracic surgeons because of complexity of radical procedures; 3) aggressive en block surgery and adequate lymph node dissection for completeness; 4) precise prediction; 5) adjuvant chemoimmunoradiotherapy for LCP with unfavorable prognosis.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

May, 2023
2. Skeletal system
The skeletal system includes:
oBones
oCartilages,
oJoints,
o ligaments and other connective tissues.
Osteology Is the study of structure, form and function
of bones.
• Osteon (bone) is a hard connective tissue of the body.
₋ Bone makes up the skeleton/ framework of the body.
₋ It also supports and protects vital organs.
2
3. Cartilage
Cartilage is tough, flexible material that pads joints which
acts as a cushion between bones at a joint and protects the
bones.
Initially animals skeleton is made up of cartilages and fibrous
membranes
Gradually animals skeletal cartilages are replaced by bone;
₋ Only a few cartilages remain in the adult skeleton.
There are three types of cartilage tissue:
1. Hyaline cartilage: is the most prevalent. E.g. Nasal
2. Elastic cartilage: withstand repeated bending. E.g. auricle
3. Fibrocartilage: found menisci of the knee b/n vertebrae
3
4. Functions of the skeletal system
• Movement: Skeletal system provides points of attachment
for muscles.
• Support: Supportive framework of the body it gives
permanent shape for an animal.
• Protection: Bone protects the soft and delicate organs.
E.g. skull protect brain, ribs protect lungs & heart from injury.
• It acts as haemopoietic organ (blood cells are formed in a
particular place called bone marrow).
• Storage: Bones store minerals, such as calcium and
phosphorus, for use by the body. 4
5. Structures of bones
Bone is a living structure having blood and nerve supply.
It can be weakened & reduced by disuse atrophy
Chemically bones have organic and inorganic matter
• Organic matter
₋ Contribute to flexibility of bone.
₋ It Includes bone cells & fibrous proteins(collagen)
• Inorganic matter
₋ Includes mainly calcium phosphate (85%), calcium
carbonate (10%), magnesium phosphate, sodium
carbonate and sodium chloride.
₋ Responsible for the rigidity and hardness of
bone.
5
8. Morphological and Functional Classification of
Bone
Depending on their shape, structure and size, bone can
be classified in to six types.
A. Long bones (ossa longa)
• Elongated & cylindrical form with enlarged extremities.
• They contains marrow cavity.
• Components of long bone:
– Epiphysis refers to extremities of long bone.
– Diaphysis cylindrical shaft of long bone situated
between epiphysis.
– Epiphysial cartilage(metaphysis) it is layer of
hyaline cartilage that separates diaphysis from
epiphysis. It is the only area in which bone can
increase in length
8
9. Examples of long bone:
– Pelvic limb Femur, tibia and fibula, metatarsus and
phalanges.
– Pectoral/forelimb humerus, radius & ulna,
metacarpal and phalanges.
9
11. B. Short bones (Ossa brevia)
– are cuboid, approximately equal in all dimensions.
– no marrow cavity.
– found in complex joints of carpus (knee joint of fore
limb) and tarsus (hock joint of the hindlimb).
C. Flat bones (Ossa plana)
– Relatively thin and expanded in two dimensions.
– Function chiefly for protection of vital organs such as
brain, the heart and the lung.
Examples skull, scapula, and os- coxae.
11
12. Diagram showing scapula and carpal bones

Bovine left scapula Equine left scapula
Acromion
Process
The acromion process is
absent in the pig and the
horse.
13. D. Sesamoid bones
– sesamoid bones are so called because of their resemblance
with ‘’sesame seed.’’
– found along the course of tendons to reduce friction.
– The patella (Knee cap) is the largest sesamoid bone in
the body (found on hind limb attached with the distal end
of femur).
E. Pneumonic bones
– Found on the face region which contains air spaces or
sinuses that communicate with the external environment.
– E.g. Bones of the skull such as frontal and maxillary
bone.
13
16. F. Irregular bones
– Have complicated shape that can not be classified as
long, short or flat.
– They includes the vertebrae, and some unpaired bones
of the skull.
16
18. Terminologies in osteology
1. Projection outward growth of bone
2. Depression structures that are found as concavity,
tunnel or circumscribed hole on bone.
– It is simply indentation on the bone.
3. Articular bony structures that participate in joint
formation( articulation).
4. Non-articular bony structures that don’t participate in
joint formation( articulation).
18
19. Projection may be articular or non-articular
A. Articular projection
i. Head is spherical projection, e.g. head of femur
B. Non- articular projection
1. Process out ward projection of bone that don’t participate in joint
formation. e.g. spinous and transverse process of vertebrae
2. Tuberosity(tuber) large non articular bony projection which is
important for muscle attachment. e.g., Deltoid tuberosity of humerus on
its shaft.
3. Tubercle/tuberculum small projection on the proximal end of long
bone, but don’t participate in joint formation. e.g., greater and lesser
tubercle of humerus.
4. Epicondyle small projection above the condyle at the distal extremity
of long bone.
19
20. 5. Trochanter large non-articular projection. It is important in
muscle attachment. It is greater than tubercle and tuberosity. e.g.,
greater and lesser trochanter of femur.
6. Spine it is pointed projection on the bone. e.g., spine of
scapula.
7. Crest outward projection of bone and they are sharp narrow
ridge. It is important for muscle attachment. e.g., medial crest of
sacral bone.
8. Neck is a type of projection with cylinderical appearance to
which head is attached. e.g., neck of ribs.
9. Line small ridge or mark formed by the pull of muscle. It is
found in any bone that attaches to the muscle.
20
21. Depression can be articular or non-articular
A. Articular depression
1. Glenoid cavity It is a shallow articular concavity. E.g., glenoid
cavity of scapula.
2. Condyloid cavity relatively deep concavity. E.g., acetabulum (a
cavity in which the head of femur is inserted to it).
3. Notch v- shaped depression. e.g., semilunar notch of ulna.
B. Non- articular depression
1. Fossa it is relatively large non articular depression. E.g.,
Supraspinous fossa.
2. Fovea relatively small non-articular depression
3. Foramen circumscribed hole /perforation on the bone. There is
no bone that comes to attach. e.g., foramen magnum (found in
occipital bone), obturator foramen( found in os- coxae).
21
25. Depending on the region that the bone found, skeleton can
be divided into three parts:
I. Axial skeleton: runs from skull to tips of the tail
₋ Skull
₋ Vertebral column
₋ Ribs
₋ Sternum
II. Appendicular skeleton: bones of limbs
₋ Pectoral /thoracic/fore limbs
₋ Bone of the hind limbs
III.Splanchnic or visceral skeleton: bone found deeply
embedded by muscle at visceral organs.
E.g. Os penis in the penis of dog
Os-cordis in the heart of bovine
27. Axial skeleton
A. Skull
The skull is the part of the skeleton that shapes the
head and face.
Provide protection for brain, organs of special sense like
sight, hearing and balance, smell and taste.
The skull is composed of two groups of bone parts:
i.Bones of cranium(Cranial part)
–surrounds the brain
ii.Bones of face (Facial part)
–cover the nose, teeth & other related structures
28. Bones of cranium
Could be paired or unpaired.
Most unpaired bones are found on median part of the skull.
Theses bones includes:
» Occipital bone: caudal part of cranium
» Ethmoid bone: rostral part of the cranial cavity.
» Sphenoid bone: lies on the floor of the cranium
Those paired cranial bones are found on the lateral part of
an animal.
These includes:
» Interparietal bone
» Parietal bone
» Frontal bones
» Temporal bones
29.
30. Bones of the face
Paired Bones of the face
A.Maxilla basal part of the upper jaw and forms sockets
for upper cheek and canine teeth.
B.Incisive bone found on the rostral part of the upper
jaw.
C.Palatine bone found at the caudal side of nares.
D.Pterygoid bone two very small flattened bones situated
at either side of caudal nares.
E.Nasal bone forms the major parts of the roof of the
nasal cavity.
F. Lacrimal bone found on the rostroventral part of the
orbit
G.Zygomatic bone found on rostro-lateral to lacrimal bone.
H.Turbinate: thin bones rolled into scroll like formation
32. Unpaired bone of the face
A. Mandible
– The largest bone of the face and forms the lower jaw.
B. Vomer
₋ median bone that forms ventral part of the nasal cavity.
C. The hyoid apparatus (hyoid bone)
₋ A bony framework that gives support to the pharynx
(throat), larynx and tongue.
32
35. B. Vertebral column
Extends from the base of the skull to the tip of the tail.
Consists of a chain of median, unpaired, irregular bones
called vertebrae.
The vertebral column encloses and protects the spinal cord.
The Vertebral column is sub-divided in to five regions,
Named according to the part of the body in which the
vertebrae are situated.
These are:
» Cervical Vertebrae(C) neck region
» Thoracic Vertebrae (T) thorax region
» Lumbar Vertebrae (L) Loin region
» Sacral Vertebrae (S) Croup region
» Caudal (coccygeal) Vertebrae (Cd)(Cy) tail region

38. Cervical vertebrae:
Vertebrae of the neck region.
All domestic animals have seven (7) cervical vertebrae
except chicken.
The first two, atlas and axis, are much more modified to
allow free movement of the head.
i. Atlas: the first cervical vertebra (C1).
ii. Axis: the second cervical vertebrae (C2).
III. The next four cervical vertebrae: similar to one another
with large articular process
IV. The seventh cervical vertebra
» Is the transition between cervical and thoracic
vertebrae.
» Is distinguished by its taller spinous process
38
40. Thoracic Vertebrae
» characterized by well-developed spinous processes
Lumbar Vertebrae
» distinguished by large &flattened transverse processes
that project laterally.
» The body and caudal articular process of the last
lumbar vertebra articulate with the sacrum.
Sacral Vertebrae (Fused vertebrae = false vertebrae)
– are fused to form a single wedge-shaped bone called
“Sacrum” which is wider cranially, narrower caudally.
Coccygeal (Caudal) Vertebrae
– form the bony basis of the tail.
41.
42. C. Ribs (costae)
The ribs (costae) are long curved bone that form the lateral
wall of the thoracic cage(cavity).
Usually the number of pairs of ribs is the same as the
number of thoracic vertebrae.
The space between individual adjacent ribs is called
intercostal space.
43. D. Sternum (breast bone)
The sternum forms the floor of the thoracic cage.
It has three parts:
a) Manubrium (pre-sternum)
₋ It is the most cranial part of sternum where by the
cartilages of the first ribs articulate.
b) Meso-sternum (Body)
– Situated at the medial part of sternum
c) Xiphoid process
– the caudal part which is a flat cartilage.
43
44.
45. 2. Appendicular skeleton
The appendicular skeleton is made up of bones of the limbs
(forelimbs and hindlimbs).
Pectoral (thoracic, fore, front) limbs :
The thoracic limb consists of four chief segments:
Segment bone
1. Shoulder girdle ------Scapula, clavicle and coracoid bones.
2. Arm--------------------Humerus
3. Forearm ---------------Radius and Ulna
4. Manus -----------------Carpal, Metacarpus and Digits
47. 1. Shoulder girdle
When the shoulder girdle is fully developed, it consists of
three bones:
₋ scapula (shoulder blade)
₋ coracoid bone
₋ clavicle (collar)
Fully developed shoulder girdle is found in birds.
In domestic animals, only the scapula a large, flat
bone & well developed.
47
48. A. Scapula (shoulder blade):
₋ Found in all domestic animals.
₋ is large, flat and somewhat triangular bone.
₋ It has two surfaces (medial and lateral surface)
₋ The medial surface is flat whereas lateral surface is divided in
to two fossa as (supraspinous fossa and infraspinous
fossa) by scapular spine.
₋ The distal end of the scapular spine is flattened to form
acromion process.
₋ The distal end has depression called glenoid cavity which
articulates with the head of the humerus
B. Coracoids bone
₋ Only birds have well developed type of coracoid bone.
C. Clavicle
₋ Is well developed in birds, man, dog, cat and fox.
49.
50. 2.Arm (Brachium)
Contains a single long bone the humerus (arm bone).
Humerus a shaft and two extremities (the proximal and
distal).
₋ The proximal extremity has spherical head which
articulate with scapula at gleniod cavity.
₋ The shaft is slightly twisted and grooved medially
₋ The distal extremity has a groove called olecranon
fossa which receives an ulnar process (olecranon
process).
3. Forearm (ante-brachium)
The forearm has two bones: Radius and Ulna
₋ Radius: is simple rod- like bone of fore-arm.
₋ Ulna: has proximal projection called olecranon process
(point of the elbow joint).
54. 4. Manus
–Manus is homologous of the hand.
–Consists of three subdivisions (Carpus, Metacarpus, Digits).
Carpus
• Contain group of short bones arranged in two transverse
rows (proximal & distal rows) and contains 8 bones when
fully developed
Comparative features:
₋ Pigs 8 separate carpal bones
₋ Ruminants 6 carpal bones
Metacarpus
• Contains five bones when fully developed designated
medio-laterally as I to V.
55. Digits
• Homologous to human fingers.
• Are results of extension of metacarpal bones.
• Are numbered from I to V mediolaterally.
• Each complete digit made up of three phalanges
₋ Proximal, Middle and Distal phalanges and
₋ Two sesamoid bones (proximal & distal sesamoid
bone).
Comparative features:
Horse 1
Ruminant & camel 2
Pigs 4
Carnivores 5
The other name of distal sesamoid bone is navicular bone.
In any animal the third phalanges known as coffine bone is
found to be enclosed by hoof.
57. Bones of the hind limbs
Hind limbs (pelvic limbs) like the thoracic limb
consists of four segments:
Pelvic girdle…… (Ilium, Ischium and Pubis)
Thigh………. (Femur and Patella)
Leg (crus)………. (Tibia and Fibula)
Pes……… (Tarsus, Metatarsus and Digits)
58. 1. Pelvic girdle
Three bones are components of the pelvic girdle.
1. The dorsal ilium, which articulates with one or more sacral
vertebrae, the largest pelvic bone
2. the ventral pubis, the smallest of the three
3. the caudal ischium.
Three bones are completely fused in adults to form a single bone
called Os coxae (pelvic bone) (hip bone).
Pubis and ischium are firmly attached to one another to form
pelvic symphysis ventrally.
• Three bones participate in the formation of acetabulum (a cup
shaped articular cavity).
» a depression in which head of the femur enters to
form a hip joint
60. 2.Thigh
– is composed of the femur and patella.
Femur:
Long bone that articulate with acetabulum proximally
and with tibia & patella distally.
Patella (knee cap):
The largest sesamoid bone, which articulates with the
trochlea of the distal femur.
61.
62. 3.Leg (crus)
– The skeleton of the leg comprises two bones:
» tibia and fibula.
A) Tibia:
– is always larger than fibula
B) Fibula:
₋ rudimentary long bone located at the lateral side of tibia.
₋ doesn’t articulate with femur.
4. Pes:
₋ The skeleton of the pes is the homologue of the human foot.
₋ Consists of three subdivisions:
» Tarsus
» Metatarsus &
» digits
63.
64. A. Tarsus (hock):
• contain a group of short bones.
• ranges from 5-7 depending on the species.
• are arranged in three rows as proximal, middle and distal row
B. Metatarsal bone
long bones located between distal rows of tarsal bones and
proximal part of the digit.
Structurally similar to the metacarpal bones except in most
domestic animals the metatarsal bones are longest but less
massive than metacarpal bones
C. Digits
Consists of three phalanges and two sesamoid bones.
They are similar characteristically with front limb digits
66. 3. Splanchnic or visceral skeleton
Visceral skeletons consists of bones that develop in
soft tissue of certain organs such as:
Os cordis in heart of ox.
Os penis in the penis of dog.
The scleral ring in eyes of birds.
