- Radiate ligament of head of rib
Infobox Ligament Name Radiate ligament Latin ligamentum capitis costae radiatum GraySubject 76 GrayPage 299 Image Gray312.png Caption Costovertebral articulations . Anterior view. Radiate lig. visible at center. Image2 Caption2 From To System Precursor MeshName MeshNumber DorlandsPre l 09 DorlandsSuf 12491767 The radiate ligament connects the anterior part of the head of each rib with the side of the bodies of two vertebr , and the intervertebral fibrocartilage between them. It consists of three flat fasciculi, which are attached to the anterior part of the head of the rib, just beyond the articular surface. The superior fasciculus ascends and is connected with the body of the vertebra above. The inferior one descends to the body of the vertebra below. The middle one, the smallest and least distinct, is horizontal and is attached to the intervertebral fibrocartilage. The radiate ligament is in relation, in front, with the thoracic ganglia of the sympathetic trunk , the pleura , and, on the right side, with the azygos vein behind, with the interarticular ligament and synovial membranes . In the case of the first rib, this ligament is not divided into three fasciculi, but its fibers are attached to the body of the last cervical vertebra , as well as to that of the first thoracic. In the articulations of the heads of the tenth, eleventh, and twelfth ribs, each of which articulates with a single vertebra, the triradiate arrangement does not exist but the fibers of the ligament in each case are connected to the vertebra above, as well as to that with which the rib articulates.

The superior articular processes project from it on either side they are oval, concave, directed backward and medialward, like the superior articular processes of a lumbar vertebra. They are attached to the body of the first sacral vertebra and to the alae by short thick pedicles on the upper surface of each pedicle is a vertebral notch, which forms the lower part of the foramen between the last lumbar and first sacral vertebrae.

It comprises two sets of fibers. The anterior set passes obliquely superiorly and laterally from the sharp crest on the superior border of the neck of each rib to the anterior surface of the transverse process of the vertebra immediately superior to it. The posterior set passes superiorly and medially from the crest on the superior border of the neck of the rib to the inferior border of the transverse process of the vertebra immediately superior to it.
