Costotransverse ligament Internal

Ligament of costal - transverse internal, l. costotraversarium interinum, is part of the fascial system of the chest and is located inside the chest from the junction of the costal and intercostal. Once in a certain position inside the chest, it forms a direct path for the tendons of the diaphragm. Its function is to align the vertical layers that are located under the various protrusions of the thoracic abdomen.

The internal costal-longitudinal ligament contains collagen fibers and can be divided into two levels: anterior and posterior. Anterior level - surrounds the left or right shoulder of the diaphragm and performs the function of fixing the diaphragm to the ribs. Posterior level - located under the diaphragm and connects the fibrous fibers located behind the diaphragm with the anterior abdominal wall system through the openings for blood vessels and nerves in the right transverse colon and left lumbar region.

Internally, a transverse communication link is positioned across the ribs to carry vessels and nerve fibers to the anterior portion of the abdominal wall. Once inside the abdominal cavity, this connection provides maximum fixation from the diaphragm, the diaphragmatic rectus muscle and the dome of the diaphragm for the best strength of the functioning of the ligaments, as well as for better fixation of the walls of the abdominal cavity.

In beginning athletes and patients undergoing therapeutic treatment in the chest area, with breast cancer, pleurisy, congenital atrium and other problems, a comprehensive diagnosis of this connection of the internal rib is required. In large partial users of tobacco products, inhaling toxins damages chemical fibers, which can lead to the development of tissue fibrosis. In the thoracic region, fibrosis of the transverse ligament between the internal ribs can cause functional problems. Using highly sensitive ultrasound diagnostic methods, it is possible to track the disease of this ligament and its severity. All this will help diagnose the disease itself and help prevent possible complications, such as diaphyseal compression syndrome and spinal displacement. Such measures will allow you to begin timely treatment and return to sports and everyday habits. Early diagnosis, professional observation, treatment and further rehabilitation will help prevent and slow down the development of the fibrotic process and its consequences.



Ligament costotransverse intramural articular point - (osseous articular point anatomical / anatomy) - a zone of intragastric surface connecting one and the other right lower articular surface of the ribs and transverse processes. In addition, the second long obturator foramen is also related to it. As the name suggests, the rectus femoris posterior muscle attaches to the outer surface of this ligament.

- According to one version, bone a - the oldest bone - arises from the anterior elements of the limb and is a rudiment of the wing of a great-great bird. And the posterior tibia arises secondarily from the limbs. It contains the shin extensor muscle, the kneecap point and the second part of the Achilles tendon point. Thanks to its position, the front side of the shin easily bends at the knee joint, and the back side at the knee joint. - The ligament of cartilaginous points is one of the main components of the ligamentous sheath in the body, which serves to create:

1) stability of the joints, 2) protection of the joints - after all, it is in the ligaments of cartilaginous points that most of the nerve endings pass. — Osteochondral points perform many functions. These include supporting, stabilizing functions, protecting and strengthening the joint, participating in the formation of the contours of the joint and muscle groups. These nodes perform a plastic function, that is, they contribute to the growth of the musculoskeletal system; Bone cartilaginous points also provide the beginning of walking, expand the space for joints, give the human body the correct proportions - build, and help maintain balance in movement.
