Only slight mobility was possible between these two ribs, which mobility w^as greatlj^ increased by section of the articular capsule at the distal extremity of the rib. The head of the rib is small, the neck broad and flat, the tubercle comparatively large, and the shaft looks decidedly twisted because of the presence of a prominent groove formed.
