Rib Notes |
•Each rib articulates with the vertebrae at two points: proximally with the vertebral body and laterally with the transverse process. •All rib articulations with the vertbrae are synovial joints, and all the sternocostal articulations except for the first rib are also synovial joints. Synovial joints are are the most common type of joint and will be discussed lated with tibiofemoral joint in detail. |
