2024年7月5日 · The xiphisternum (also known as the xiphoid process or simply the xiphoid) is the smallest of the three parts of the sternum (manubrium, body or gladiolus, and xiphisternum). It arises from the inferior and posterior margin of the sternal body and projects inferiorly.

The xiphisternal joint (or xiphisternal symphysis) is a location near the bottom of the sternum, where the body of the sternum and the xiphoid process meet. It is structurally classified as a synchondrosis, and functionally classified as a synarthrosis.

The xiphoid process (/ ˈzɪfɔɪd /), also referred to as the ensiform process, xiphisternum, or metasternum, constitutes a small cartilaginous process (extension) located in the inferior segment of the sternum, typically ossified in adult humans. [1] .

2024年5月23日 · The xiphoid process, also known as the xiphisternum, is the smallest and most inferior of the three parts of the sternum. It is highly variable in shape, though it is typically thin and elongated, with its inferior end located at the level of the T10 vertebra.

2020年11月19日 · It articulates with the manubrium superiorly (manubriosternal joint) and the xiphoid process inferiorly (xiphisternal joint). The lateral edges of the body are marked by numerous articular facets (cartilage lined depressions in the bone).

2023年12月27日 · The xiphisternal joint (or more rarely, the sternoxiphoid joint) is a symphysis between the inferior margin of the body of the sternum and the superior margin of the xiphoid process. In most people it ossifies with age, usually becoming fully fused by the age of 40 years, forming a synostosis .

The xiphoid process (also known as the xiphisternum) is located in the epigastrium region of the anterior thoracic wall. The xiphoid process articulates with the superiorly located sternum corpus at the xiphisternal joint. During the first half of life, this joint is categorized as a symphysis but eventually becomes a synostosis at ~40 years .

2018年10月11日 · Perichondritis (Tietze’s syndrome) has been described at the xiphisternal joint (as well as sternoclavicular, costochondral, and sternoclavicular junctions) as a benign, self-limited, painful diagnosis that may mimic serious cardiac, pulmonary, gastrointestinal, and other pathologic processes .

The xiphisternal joint is the anatomical junction between the xiphoid process and the body of the sternum. This joint is typically a synchondrosis (cartilaginous joint where the bones are joined by hyaline cartilage). Over time, this joint may ossify and …

The xiphisternal joint is a cartilaginous joint located at the junction of the xiphoid process and the body of the sternum. It plays a crucial role in connecting these two structures, which are important for the overall integrity and flexibility of the thoracic skeleton.
