thorax Flashcards
ribs 1-7
true ribs
attach directly to the sternum by own costal cartilage
ribs 8-10
false
attach indirectly
ribs11-12
floating
don’t attach to the sternum
sternum
mannibrum
body
xiphoid process
thoracic inlet
superior opening
boarders- anterior mannibruim
lateral- 1st ribs/ costal cart
posterior- t1 vert
thoracic outlet
inferior opening
xipisternum joint- costal margin
2 floating ribs
t12 vert
closed off by thoracic diaphragm
manubriosternum joint
secondary cartilaginous
angled
slightly mobile
xiphisternum joint
secondary cartilaginous
slightly mobile
when we get older decrease mobility
1st sternocostal joint
between sternum and costal cart of ribs
primary cartilaginous- syndchondorsis
immoveable
don’t want to damage vessels that go through here
2nd-7th sternocostal joint
between sternum and costal cart of ribs
synovial plane multiaxial
gliding movements in breathing
costocondral joints
between ribs and cartilage
primary cartilaginous syndchondrosis
intercondral joints
6-10
6-7, 7-8, 8-9- synovial multiaxial plane
9-10- fibrous
costovertebral joints
synovial multiaxial plane
heads of ribs with boadies of the thoracic vert
1,10,11,12- articulate with single
rest articulate with superior and inferior vert
costotransverse joints
synovial multiaxial plane
articular tubercle of ribs with transverse process
small gliding movements
ribs 11/12- dont have tubercles so no articulation
radiate ligament
head of ribs to 2 adjacent vertebral bodies/ IVD
reinforce joint capsule
intra articular ligament
head of ribs// ivd between vert bodies
divides costal vert joints cavities into 2
superior costotransverse ligament
neck of ribs to transverse process of vert above
lateral costotransverse ligament
tubercle of rubs to tip of transverse process of verterbrae at he level
costotransverse ligament
back of neck to front of transverse process of corresponding vert
inspiration pump handle
moves upper 2-5 ribs
increases the anterioposterior axis
movement axis along the neck of the ribs
inspiration bucket handle
moves ribs 8-10
increase the lateral diameter
movement axis through costovertberal and sternocostal joints
