Q

Why are ribs 11 and 12 atypical?

A
  • Signle facet on head
  • tubercle and neck not present
17
Q

Supernumerary ribs?

A
  • Extra ribs in cervical or lumbar region
  • Cervical ribs usually have no sx but can produce neural and circulatory issues if close to brachial plexus or subclavian art
  • Lumbar ribs also don’t produce sx but can be confusing on imaging
18
Q

what are four types of fibrous joints?

A

Aka Synarthrosis, characterized by bone & fibrous CT

  • Sutures
  • Schindylesis
  • Gomphosis
  • Syndesmosis
19
Q

What are the seven types of synovial joints?

A

Aka Diarthrosis, freely moveable characterized by fibrous capsule, synovial mem, joint space, hyaline cartilage lining articular surfaces

  1. plana
  2. ginglymus (hinge uniaxial)
  3. Trochoid (pivot, uniaxial)
  4. Condylar
  5. Sellar (saddle)
  6. Spheroidal (ball and socket, triaxial)
  7. Compound synovial (combo of the above)
20
Q

What are the cartilaginous joints?

A
  • Primary cartilaginous joint aka synchondrosis
    • temporary cartilagenous union of hyaline cartilages
  • Secondary cartilaginous joint aka symphysis
    • characterized by fibrocartilage as seen in IVD, pubic symphysis
21
Q

What bones make up the manubriosternal joint and what is the joint classification?

A

Manubrium and sternum

Symphysis

22
Q

What bones make up the xiphisternal joint and what is the classification?

A
  • xiphoid bone and sternum
  • Synchondrosis
    • permanent type! usually this type is for transient growing bones but this one is unique
23
Q

Sternocostal joint and type, what ligament holds them together?

A
  • Sternum and costal cartilages
  • 1st rib is Synchondrosis
    • permanent type
  • Rest are planar joints
  • Held together with anterior radiate sternocostal ligament
24
Q

What is costovertebral joint, what ligament, and type?

A
  • Head of rib and superior inferior costal facets on thoracic vertebra
  • Radiate ligament and deep to it intraarticular ligament (which goes to intervertebral disc)
25
Q

What rib will meet up btw vertebra 5 and 6?

A
  • Rib six meets up with T6 superior costal facet and T6 transverse process and T5 inferior costal facet
26
Q

What are costotransverse joints?

A
  • Synovial planar joint
  • articulation btw costal tubercle and transverse process
    • Ex:rib 5 meets with transverse process T5
  • Lateral costotransverse L, goes from TP to rib
  • Superior costotransverse L comes from TP one level up
    • ​ex: rib 5 articulates with TP of T5 the SCTL comes from T4
27
Q

What two movements does the costovertebral joint do?

A
  • Bucket Handle movement: elevation of the lateral most portion of the rib increasing transverese diameter of thorax
  • Pump handle movement: elevation of sternal end of rib increasing the anterior to posterior diameter of the thorax
28
Q

Costochondral joints?

A
  • Ribs and costal cartilages
  • Synchondrosis
29
Q

Differnce btw dislocation and separation of ribs?

A
  • Dislocation is btw sternum and costal cartilage-sternocostal joint
  • Separation is btw costal cartilage and rib itself-costochondral joint
30
Q

Interchondral joints?

A
  • Btw 10th and 9th
  • 9th with 8th
  • 8th with 7th
  • Top two are planar synovial and bottom one is fibrous joint
31
Q

External intercostal muscle becomes membranous anteriorly and is called ___. Action is to ___.

A

External intercostal muscle becomes membranous anteriorly and is called external intercostal membrane. Action is to elevate the ribs.

32
Q

Internal intercostal is deep to ___ and its fibers are traveling in ___ direction. Follow around posteriorly and they become ___. Action is to __.

A

Internal intercostal is deep to external intercostal and its fibers are traveling in opposite perpendicular direction. Follow around posteriorly and they become Internal intercostal membrane. Action is to depress ribs.

33
Q

Innermost innercostal muscle is the deepest and fibers travel ___. Action is to ___.

A

Innermost innercostal muscle is the deepest and fibers travel same direction as internal. Action is to depress the ribs.

34
Q

How to tell innermost from internal?

A
  • Neurvascular bundle travels btw innermost and internal

If you can see the NVB the innermost intercostal is missing

35
Q

When looking at the internal anterior thoracic wall, how do you tell the difference btw innermost intercostal and internal intercostal?

A

The intercostal nerve should be traveling along the inferior border of the ribs, and in the places where you can’t see the nerve is where the innermost intercostal muscle is located.

36
Q

what is the red dot on?

A

Innermost intercostal

37
Q

Where is chest tube placed?

A
  • Btw 5th or 6th intercostal space
38
Q

What do the transverse thoracic muslces do?

A

depress ribs, comes from sternum and goes up to ribs

39
Q

Subcostal muscles?

A
  • Go up two ribs spaces

rotatores longus except on the ribs
