 The most common joint type is the diarthrosis of articulating joints, which has a fibrous connective tissue capsule (ligament), continuous with the periosteum of the two bones and which permits a degree of freedom of movement between the two bones.
Verruca: A wart by another name, a local growth of the outer layer of the skin (the epidermis) caused by a virus. The virus of warts (a human papillomavirus) is transmitted by contact. The contact can be with a wart on someone else or one on oneself (autoinoculation).
These include: 1  Common wart (Verruca vulgaris), a raised wart with roughened surface, most common on hands, but can grow anywhere on the body. 2  Flat wart (Verruca plana), a small, smooth flattened wart, flesh-coloured, which can occur in large numbers; most common on the face, neck, hands, wrists and knees. Filiform or digitate wart, a thread- or finger-like wart, most common on the face, especially near the eyelids and lips.
