Introduction Anatomy – science deals with structure of body, from macroscopic to microscopic level Anatome = (Greek anatomē , 'dissection') is the branch of biology concerned with the study of the structure of organisms and their parts Anatomical Nomenclature = to eliminate unambiguous description of thousands of structures is impossible without an extensive and often highly specialized vocabulary. 01-05-2021 3
Approach To S tudy Anatomy Regional anatomy Systemic anatomy Clinical (applied anatomy) 01-05-2021 4
Regional A natomy Human body as major part or segment 01-05-2021 5
Surface Anatomy Provide knowledge , what lies under the skin. 01-05-2021 6
By means of radio graphical, sectional anatomy and endoscopy 01-05-2021 7
Systemic Anatomy Study of body’s organ systems work together to carry out complex function. Integumentary system Skeletal system Articular system Muscular system Nervous system Circulatory system Alimentary system 8. Respiratory system 9. Urinary system 10. Genital system 11. Endocrine system 01-05-2021 8
Clinical Anatomy(Applied Anatomy) Incorporates regional and systemic approaches. Important in role of solving clinical problem. 01-05-2021 9
Anatomical position Anatomical position: person is standing straight Eyes looking forwards Both arms by the side of body palms facing forwards Both feet together, the position is anatomical position 01-05-2021 10
Supine position When a person is lying on her/his back, arms by the side, palms facing upwards and feet put together, the position is supine position 01-05-2021 11
Prone position • Prone position : Person lying on his/her face, chest and abdomen is said to be in prone position 01-05-2021 12
Lateral recumbent position 01-05-2021 13
Lithotomic position Person lying on her back with legs up and feet supported in straps. This position is mostly used during delivery of the baby 01-05-2021 14
Fowler’s position 01-05-2021 15
Anatomical planes Plane – hypothetical plane used to transect body to locate structures or direction of movement Axis – an imaginary line about which a body rotates anatomical planes: 1) Sagittal plane 2) Coronal plane 3) Transverse plane 01-05-2021 16
Terms Used in Relation to Trunk • Ventral or Anterior is the front of trunk. • Dorsal or Posterior is the back of trunk • Medial is a plane close to the median plane • Lateral is plane away from the median plane. • Proximal/Cranial/Superior is close to the head end of trunk 01-05-2021 26
• Distal/Caudal/Inferior is close to the lower end of the trunk. • Superficial is close to skin/towards surface of body • Deep away from skin/away from surface of body. 01-05-2021 27
Laterality • Ipsilateral on the same side of the body as another structure • Contralateral on opposite side of body from another structure. Bilateral Unilateral 01-05-2021 28
• Invagination is projection inside. • Evagination is projection outside 01-05-2021 29
Terms of Relation Commonly Used in Embryology but sometimes in Gross Anatomy (a) Ventral - Towards the belly (b) Dorsal - Towards the back (c) Cranial or Rostral - Towards the head (l (d) Caudal - Towards the tail 01-05-2021 30
Terms related to upper trunk In Upper limb • Flexion: When two flexor surfaces are brought close to each other e.g. elbow joint when front of arm and forearm are opposed to each other • Extension: When extensor or dorsal surfaces are brought in as much approximation as possible e.g. straighten the arm and forearm at the elbow joint. 01-05-2021 31
• Abduction: When limb is taken away from the body. • Adduction: When limb is brought close to the body. 01-05-2021 32
• Medial rotation: When the arm rotates medially bringing the flexed forearm across the chest. • Lateral rotation: When arm rotates laterally taking the flexed forearm away from the body. 01-05-2021 33
• Supination : When the palm is facing forwards or upwards, as in putting food in the mouth (Fig. 1.17). • Pronation : When the palm faces backwards or downwards, as in picking food with fingers from the plate 01-05-2021 34
• Adduction of digits/fingers: When all the fingers get together. • Abduction: When all fingers separate. The axis of movement of fingers is the line passing through the centre of the middle finger. 01-05-2021 35
• Circumduction : It is movement of distal end of a part of the body in a circle. A combination of extension, abduction, flexion and adduction in a sequence is called circumduction as in bowling. 01-05-2021 36
• Opposition of thumb: When tip of thumb touches the tips of any of the fingers. • Circumduction of thumb: Movement of extension, abduction, flexion and adduction in sequence. 01-05-2021 37
Lower Limb • Flexion of thigh: When front of thigh comes in contact with front of abdomen. • Extension of thigh: When person stands erect. 01-05-2021 38
• Abduction: When thigh is taken away from the median plane. • Adduction: When thigh is brought close to median plane. 01-05-2021 39
Medial rotation: When thigh is turned medially. • Lateral rotation: When thigh is turned laterally. 01-05-2021 40
• Flexion of knee : When back of thigh and back of leg come in opposition. • Extension of knee: When thigh and leg are in straight line as in Standing. 01-05-2021 41
• Dorsiflexion of foot: When dorsum of foot is brought close to front of leg and sole faces forwards (Fig. 1.18). • Plantarflexion of foot: When sole of foot or plantar aspect of foot faces backwards. 01-05-2021 42
• Inversion of foot: When medial border of foot is raised from the ground (Fig. 1.18). • Eversion of foot: When lateral border of foot is raised from the 01-05-2021 43
In the Neck •Flexion: When face comes closer to chest. • Extension: When face is brought away from the chest. 01-05-2021 44
• Lateral flexion: When ear is brought close to shoulder. 01-05-2021 45
Rotation: When neck rotates so that chin goes to opposite side. 01-05-2021 46
• Protraction: When lower jaw slides forwards in its socket in the temporal bone of skull. • Retraction: When lower jaw slides backwards in its socket in the temporal bone of skull 01-05-2021 47
In the Trunk • Backward bending is called extension. • Forward bending is flexion • Sideward movement is lateral flexion. • Sideward rotation is lateral rotation. 01-05-2021 48
Terms Used for Describing Muscles Origin: end of a muscle which is relatively fixed during its contraction Insertion: end of a muscle which moves during its contraction. 01-05-2021 49
Terms Used in Clinical Anatomy Suffix is a word component added to the end of a word that changes or modifies its usage, functioning or meaning. 01-05-2021 50
itis = inflammation e.g. tonsillitis ectomy = excision, removal e.g. tonsillectomy otomy = opening and closing a hollow viscous or region e.g. Hysterotomy tomy = act of cutting e.g. Osteotomy ostomy = to open a hollow organ e.g. Tracheostomy oma = a tumour e.g. Lipoma tripsy = to crush , breakdown e.g. Lithotripsy plasty = surgical repair e.g. Rhinoplasty desis = surgical fixation, fusion e.g. Arthrodesis 01-05-2021 51
