What is Anatomy of the Thoracic Bones about?
The thoracic cage consists of the sternum, ribs, and costal cartilage. The sternum includes the manubrium, body, and xiphoid process. Typical ribs 3-10 have a head that joins to vertebrae, neck, tubercle, angle, and costal cartilage. The first rib is flattened and connects to the manubrium. The 11th and 12th ribs lack a joint between the tubercle and transverse process and end in a small cap of cartilage.
