Atypical Ribs
1st, 2nd, 10th,11, and 12th
1st Rib (Atypical)
1st rib is broad. The shortest & most sharply curved of the 7 true ribs.
Contributes to the roof of thoracic cavity.
has 2 shallow grooves crossing superior surface for Subclavian vessels and they are separated by the Scalene Tubercles and ridge.
Only has 1 facet
Only articulates with T1.
2nd Rib (Atypical)
2nd rib is Thinner and more typical.
Has attachments for Serratus Anterior & Posterior Scalene.
Twice the length of the 1st Rib
10th, 11th, and 12th Ribs (Atypical)
They only have 1 facet.
11th and 12 Ribs
Short and have NO necks or Tubercles
Typical RIbs
3rd-9th Ribs
Head with 2 facets that are separated by crest of head. 1 facet articulates with corresponding vertebrae and the other facet articulates with facet above it.
Neck that connects the head with the body (shaft) @ level of Tubercle
Tubercle at the junction of Neck and Body. Has tubercle that is smooth for transverse process of vertebrae (synovial) and tubercle that is rough for nonarticular part of vertebrae (Fibrous).
Body(shaft) that is thin, flat, and curved along its length, most markedly at the angle where the ribs turn Anteriorly.
