Morphology of the sternoclavicular joint and its microanatomical changes in response to osteoarthritic degeneration

open access: yesClinical Anatomy, EarlyView.
Abstract Although the sternoclavicular joint shares structural similarities with the knee and hip joints as a diarthrodial joint, its biomechanics differ significantly due to its non‐weight‐bearing nature. Nevertheless, it is subject to considerable loading, leading to increased susceptibility to osteoarthritis, a prevalent condition characterized by ...
