The lateral costotransverse ligament is a short, thick, though [1] ligament of the costotransverse joint which strengthens the joint posteriorly. [2] It connects (the rough, non-articular portion of) the tubercle of a rib, and the transverse process of the corresponding vertebra.
The inferior carotid triangle (or muscular triangle), is bounded, in front, by the median line of the neck from the hyoid bone to the sternum; behind, by the anterior margin of the sternocleidomastoid; above, by the superior belly of the omohyoid.
ophthalmic artery, lateral muscular branch trochlear nerve [CNIV] abducts, intorts, and depress eye: right medial, superior, and inferior recti (superior and inferior oblique muscles are the synergists) 2 1 oblique, inferior: head, extraocular (left/right) orbital surface of maxilla, lateral to lacrimal groove
The human musculoskeletal system (also known as the human locomotor system, and previously the activity system) is an organ system that gives humans the ability to move using their muscular and skeletal systems. The musculoskeletal system provides form, support, stability, and movement to the body.
A costotransverse ligament is ligament of the costotransverse joint which attaches at (the posterior aspect of [1]) the neck of a rib, and at (the anterior aspect of [1]) the transverse process of [1] [2] its corresponding [1] vertebra.
The costotransverse joint is the joint formed between the facet of the tubercle of the rib and the adjacent transverse process of a thoracic vertebra.The costotransverse joint is a plane type of synovial joint which, under physiological conditions, allows only gliding movement.
Its superior belly divides the anterior triangle into an carotid triangle (above) and a muscular triangle (below). [3] [4] [verification needed] Its superior belly serves as the most lateral member of the infrahyoid muscles, located lateral to both the sternothyroid muscles and the thyrohyoid muscles.

Superior boundary (base) The lower border of the body of the mandible, and a line extending from the angle of the mandible to the mastoid process Investing fascia covers the roof of the triangle while visceral fascia covers the floor.
