Syndesmoses of vertebral column refer to the joints that connect two or more vertebrae of the human spine. These joints are also known by other names such as fibrous joints, immovable joints, or fixed joints. They connect the two vertebrae using tough fibrous connective tissue, which allows minimal movement and provides stability to the spine.
Other synonyms for syndesmoses of the vertebral column include fibrous intervertebral joints, intervertebral ligaments, spinal ligaments, and spinal joints. These joints play an essential role in maintaining the structure and function of the human spine and provide support to the body. Injury or damage to these joints can lead to various spinal disorders and conditions, including vertebral fractures and dislocations. Hence, it is crucial to keep these joints healthy and functional to ensure a healthy and pain-free spine.
