Joint
Intervertebral joint
T1-T12
connects adjacent vertebrae of the vertebral column
Whats the type of joint for intervertebral joint?

Small degree of rotation
Costovertebral joint
head of ribs with vertebrae
Whats the type of joint for costovertebral joint?
Synovial plane
Articulation for costovertebral joint?
Rib head with superior demi of vertebral body + same # vertebral body & inferior demi+ IV disc between them
Tubercle of rib + transverse process of vertebra with same #
Ligaments for costovertebral joint?
Radiate + intra-articular ligaments of rib head
Costotransverse (ct); lateral + superior ct
Ribs + Articulation of costovertebral joints
Heads of 1, 11, 12 (10 sometimes) articulate with vertebral body of same #. 11 & 12 do not articulate with transverse process of same # vertebrae
Costochondral joint
between each rib and its costal cartilage (c.c)
Whats the type of joint for costochondral joint??

Articulation for costochondral joint?
Lateral end of c.c with sternal end of rib
Ligaments for costochondral joint?
Cartilage + bone bound together by periosteum
Movement for costochondral joints?

2-7: 2-7 c.c with sternum
Ligaments for sternocostal joint?
Anterior + posterior radiate sternocostal (intra-articular)
Articular cavities for sternocostal joints?
Articular cavities = absent usually; fibrocartilage covers articular surfaces
Interchondral joint
6th to 9th rib - bw each rib and their corresponding rib
Whats the type of joint for interchondral joint?
