posterior tubercle of transverse process of cervical vertebra

Synonyms

posterior costal tubercle of transverse process of cervical vertebra

Definitions

The posterior arch of a cervical vertebra forms about two-fifths of the circumference of the ring: it ends behind in the posterior tubercle, which is the rudiment of a spinous process and gives origin to the Recti capitis posteriores minores. The diminutive size of this process prevents any interference with the movements between the atlas and the skull.
