The easiest way to remember the ossification centres of the carpal bones is to start with the capitate of your right hand, then work your way anti-clockwise (adding one year for each bone) until you reach the pisiform (which is usually visible between 9-10 years of age). Match the year of appearance of the ossification centre for each of the following parts around the elbow. The sequence of appearance of the ossification centres around the elbow can be remembered by the mnemonic CRITOE (Capitellum, Radial head, Internal epicondyle, Trochlea, Olecranon, External epicondyle. The Capitellum is visible at 1 year and the others appear every 2 years after that. The sequence of appearance of the ossification centres around the elbow can be remembered by the mnemonic CRITOE (Capitellum, Radial head, Internal epicondyle, Trochlea, Olecranon, External epicondyle. The Capitellum is visible at 1 year and the others appear every 2 years after that. Which one of the following is the last ossification centre of the pelvis to appear The ilium is the first ossification centre to appear at 8 weeks in utero. The ischium and pubis both appear at about 4-6 months in utero, whilst the 2 acetabular centres only appear at puberty. The ilium is the first ossification centre to appear at 8 weeks in utero. The ischium and pubis both appear at about 4-6 months in utero, whilst the 2 acetabular centres only appear at puberty. Which of the following ossification centres of the pelvis is the last to close The ilium, ischium and pubis fuse at 7-9 years of age, whilst the acetabulum fuses at 20-25 years of age. Which one of the following is the last ossification centre to appear around the ankle joint The medial malleolus forms from the distal tibial epiphyses at 7-10 years, which is much later than the distal fibula (appears at 6-12 months), Talus (appears at 6 months in utero) and Calcaneus (appears at 3 months in utero). The medial malleolus forms from the distal tibial epiphyses at 7-10 years, which is much later than the distal fibula (appears at 6-12 months), Talus (appears at 6 months in utero) and Calcaneus (appears at 3 months in utero). Which one of the following ossification centres of the bones of the foot is the last to appear The Cuboid ossification centre is present at birth, the Lateral cuneiform by 6 months and the Navicular by 2.5-5 years. The anatomical sesamoids are the last to appear at 7-8 years of age. The Cuboid ossification centre is present at birth, the Lateral cuneiform by 6 months and the Navicular by 2.5-5 years. The anatomical sesamoids are the last to appear at 7-8 years of age. Which one of the following ossification centres around the knee is the last to appear The ossification centres of the patella appear at 3-5 years of age, approximately the same time as that of the fibular head (2-4 years of age). The tibial plateau appears at around the time of term birth, however the tibial tuberosity does not appears until 10-12 years of age. The ossification centres of the patella appear at 3-5 years of age, approximately the same time as that of the fibular head (2-4 years of age). The tibial plateau appears at around the time of term birth, however the tibial tuberosity does not appears until 10-12 years of age. Quiz-summary
