Final costovertebral joint Flashcards
what are the locations for costovertebral joints on the vertebra
the costocentral joint at the vertebral body and the costotranverse joint at the transverse process
which costocentral ligament forms part of the anterior boundary of the intervertebral foramen
the costcentral capsular ligament
the costocentral radiate/stellate ligament is identified with which joint classification
fibrous amphiarthrosis syndesmosis
an intra articular ligament will be identified with which ribs
ribs2-9
what are the attaching surfaces of the intra articular ligament
the intra articular crest of the head of the rib and the intervertebral disc
whcich vertebrae will have a synovial plane diarthrosis arthrodia costotransverse joint
typically T1-T10
what are the accessory ligaments of the costotransverse joint
the superior costotransverse ligament
the inferior costotransverse ligament
the lateral costotransverse ligament
