HUMAN ANATOMY
Locomotor system. Overview, classification and structure of bones. Head: bones of the cranial box, in a general manner bones of the massive facial. Trunk: vertebral column (cervical, thoracic, lumbar, sacrum and coccyx). Chest (ribs and sternum). Pelvic girdle (ileum, ischio and pubis) and coxo-femoral joint. Classification of joints.
Muscular apparatus: nods on muscles. Diaphragm
Endocrine system. Pituitary gland- hypothalamus axis, thyroid, adrenal, pituitary gland, testicles, ovary.
Cardiocirculatory system. Heart: location and topography. Structure and function of the valves. Functional anatomy of the circulatory system: arteries, veins and capillaries. The small circulation and the great circulation. Heart conduction system. Aorta and its primary branches of division. Lymphatic system: characteristics of the lymphatic circulation, lymphatic trunks. Lymphatic organs: bone marrow, thymus, lymph nodes, spleen: position, relationships and structure.
Respiratory system. Nose, pharynx, larynx, trachea, bronchi and pulmonary parenchyma. Pleure and respiratory mechanics in a general manner.
Digestive system. Vestibule of the mouth, oral cavity, pharynx, esophagus and stomach. Small intestine (duodenum, jejunum and ileum), large intestine. Glands related to digestive system: liver and biliary ways, pancreas, salivary glands and gall-bladder. Overview of peritoneum.
Urinary apparatus. Kidney, calyxes and renal pelvis. Ureters. Urinary bladder.
