Neurosurgery, Seattle Science Foundation Corresponding author: Erfanul Saker, [email protected] Abstract Few studies have examined the costovertebral joint and its ligaments in detail. Therefore, the following review was performed to better elucidate their anatomy, function and involvement in pathology. Standard search engines were used to find studies concerning the costovertebral joints and ligaments. These often- overlooked ligaments of the body serve important functions in maintaining appropriate alignment between the ribs and spine. With an increasing interest in minimally invasive approaches to the thoracic spine and an improved understanding of the function and innervation of these ligaments, surgeons and clinicians should have a good working knowledge of these structures. Categories: Neurosurgery, Orthopedics, Rheumatology Keywords: costovertebral joint, spine, anatomy, thoracic Introduction And Background The costovertebral joint ligaments are relatively unknown and frequently overlooked anatomical structures [1]. Although small and short in size, they are abundant, comprising 108 costovertebral ligaments in the normal human thoracic spine, and they are essential to its stability and function [2-3].

The following bony prominences can usually be palpated in the living subject (corresponding vertebral levels are given in brackets): •◊◊superior angle of the scapula (T2); •◊◊upper border of the manubrium sterni, the suprasternal notch (T2/3); •◊◊spine of the scapula (T3); •◊◊sternal angle (of Louis) — the transverse ridge at the manubrio-sternal junction (T4/5); •◊◊inferior angle of scapula (T8); •◊◊xiphisternal joint (T9); •◊◊lowest part of costal margin—10th rib (the subcostal line passes through L3). Note from Fig. 1 that the manubrium corresponds to the 3rd and 4th thoracic vertebrae and overlies the aortic arch, and that the sternum corre- sponds to the 5th to 8th vertebrae and neatly overlies the heart. Since the 1st and 12th ribs are difficult to feel, the ribs should be enu- merated from the 2nd costal cartilage, which articulates with the sternum at the angle of Louis. The spinous processes of all the thoracic vertebrae can be palpated in the midline posteriorly, but it should be remembered that the first spinous process that can be felt is that of C7 (the vertebra prominens). The position of the nipple varies considerably in the female, but in the male it usually lies in the 4th intercostal space about 4in (10cm) from the midline.

  • Slipping Rib Syndrome
    Slipping Rib Syndrome Jackie Dozier, BS Edited by Lisa E McMahon, MD FACS FAAP David M Notrica, MD FACS FAAP Case Presentation AA is a 12 year old female who presented with a 7 month history of right-sided chest/rib pain. She states that the pain was not preceded by trauma and she had never experienced pain like this before. She has been seen in the past by her pediatrician, chiropractor, and sports medicine physician for her pain. In May 2012, she was seen in the ER after having manipulations done on her ribs by a sports medicine physician. Pain at that time was constant throughout the day and kept her from sleeping. However, it was relieved with hydrocodone/acetaminophen in the ER. Case Presentation Over the following months, the pain became progressively worse and then constant. She also developed shortness of breath. She is a swimmer and says she has had difficulty practicing due to the pain and SOB. AA was seen by a pediatric surgeon and scheduled for an interventional pain management service consult for a test injection. Following good temporary relief by local injection, she was scheduled costal cartilage removal to treat her pain. What is Slipping Rib Syndrome? •Slipping Rib Syndrome (SRS) is caused by hypermobility of the anterior ends of the false rib costal cartilages, which leads to slipping of the affected rib under the superior adjacent rib. •SRS an lead to irritation of the intercostal nerve or strain of the muscles surrounding the rib. •SRS is often misdiagnosed and can lead to months or years of unresolved abdominal and/or thoracic pain.

  • Anatomy of the Spine
    12 Anatomy of the Spine Overview The spine is made of 33 individual bones stacked one on top of the other. Ligaments and muscles connect the bones together and keep them aligned. The spinal column provides the main support for your body, allowing you to stand upright, bend, and twist. Protected deep inside the bones, the spinal cord connects your body to the brain, allowing movement of your arms and legs. Strong muscles and bones, flexible tendons and ligaments, and sensitive nerves contribute to a healthy spine. Keeping your spine healthy is vital if you want to live an active life without back pain. Spinal curves When viewed from the side, an adult spine has a natural S-shaped curve. The neck (cervical) and low back (lumbar) regions have a slight concave curve, and the thoracic and sacral regions have a gentle convex curve (Fig. 1). The curves work like a coiled spring to absorb shock, maintain balance, and allow range of motion throughout the spinal column. The muscles and correct posture maintain the natural spinal curves. Good posture involves training your body to stand, walk, sit, and lie so that the least amount of strain is placed on the spine during movement or weight-bearing activities. Excess body weight, weak muscles, and other forces can pull at the spine’s alignment: • An abnormal curve of the lumbar spine is lordosis, also called sway back. • An abnormal curve of the thoracic spine is Figure 1. (left) The spine has three natural curves that form kyphosis, also called hunchback. an S-shape; strong muscles keep our spine in alignment.

  • Changes in L4/5 Intervertebral Foramen Bony Morphology With
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Changes in L4/5 Intervertebral Foramen Bony Morphology with Age Received: 7 September 2017 Shuaifeng Yan, Kai Wang, Yunfan Zhang, Song Guo, Yan Zhang & Jun Tan Accepted: 1 May 2018 The purpose of this study was to explore the morphological changes in L4/5 intervertebral foramen Published: xx xx xxxx with age using a digital method. The closed boundaries of the intervertebral foramen (IGES) in diferent sagittal slices (inside, middle and outside) were obtained from Mimics, and then imported to a custom- written program, which provided quantitative distance between the nerve root and the closed curves. The quantitative information of each age group was used to produce radar chart and line chart for morphological and statistical analyses. Overall, the intervertebral foramen changes mainly occurred in the inner part from middle age to old age. The foraminal height decreased with age in the inside sagittal slice, while no signifcant diference was found in the middle sagittal slice or the outside sagittal slice. The foraminal width showed no decrease in each age group or each sagittal plane. The present study described foraminal geometry of asymptomatic males in diferent sagittal slices with age. This information enhances the knowledge of anatomical changes in intervertebral foramen with age, which provides better understanding of the pathology of intervertebral foramen diseases. Low back pain (LBP) is a global health problem, causing enormous fnancial burden1,2. Te lifetime prevalence of LBP is reported to be as high as 84%3. Radiculopathy is a common cause of low back and leg pain4. In general, radiculopathy caused by foramen stenosis consists of 8–11% nerve root compression5, and shows an increasing trend6.

  • Lab Manual Axial Skeleton Atla
    1 PRE-LAB EXERCISES When studying the skeletal system, the bones are often sorted into two broad categories: the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. This lab focuses on the axial skeleton, which consists of the bones that form the axis of the body. The axial skeleton includes bones in the skull, vertebrae, and thoracic cage, as well as the auditory ossicles and hyoid bone. In addition to learning about all the bones of the axial skeleton, it is also important to identify some significant bone markings. Bone markings can have many shapes, including holes, round or sharp projections, and shallow or deep valleys, among others. These markings on the bones serve many purposes, including forming attachments to other bones or muscles and allowing passage of a blood vessel or nerve. It is helpful to understand the meanings of some of the more common bone marking terms. Before we get started, look up the definitions of these common bone marking terms: Canal: Condyle: Facet: Fissure: Foramen: (see Module 10.18 Foramina of Skull) Fossa: Margin: Process: Throughout this exercise, you will notice bold terms. This is meant to focus your attention on these important words. Make sure you pay attention to any bold words and know how to explain their definitions and/or where they are located. Use the following modules to guide your exploration of the axial skeleton. As you explore these bones in Visible Body’s app, also locate the bones and bone markings on any available charts, models, or specimens. You may also find it helpful to palpate bones on yourself or make drawings of the bones with the bone markings labeled.
