Hyaline cartilage is the glass-like and translucent cartilage found on many joint surfaces. It is also most commonly found in the ribs, nose, larynx, and trachea. [1] Hyaline cartilage is pearl-gray in color, with a firm consistency and has a considerable amount of collagen.

2023年11月3日 · During embryonic development, hyaline cartilage serves as temporary cartilage models that are essential precursors to the formation of most of the axial and appendicular skeleton. This article will focus on important features of hyaline cartilage, namely its matrix, chondrocytes, and perichondrium.
