Translations:Rippen und Brustbein/15/en

Each pair of ribs is bilaterally symmetrical, but the shape is different in each segment. The rib neck ranges from the rib head (Caput costae) to the rib hump (Tuberculum costae) and is located at the dorsal end of the rib. With the exception of the 1st rib, it has an upwardly directed groin (Crista colli costa).
