Where are fibrocartilage found?

Fibrocartilage is an extra strong type of cartilage, it is made up of white fibrous tissue and cartilaginous fibres which are arranged in an orderly manner. It also contains an abundant supply of Type I Collagen. This combination of fibres gives fibrocartilage its strong, flexible and elastic properties.Because of its strength and durability, fibrocartilage is found in areas of the body which are subjected to the most strain and impact such as the spine, knees and pelvis, where it provides support and strength and acts as a shock absorber.

What is the function and location of the fibrocartilage?

Fibrocartilage is a particularly strong and durable type of cartilage and is found between the vertebrae of the spine, in the knees and in the pubic symphysis. It is found in these areas as they are all areas in the body which take a lot of strain and the cartilage therefore needs to be extra strong to absorb this strain. It also provides padding between the vertebrae, protects the spinal cord, absorbs shock and supports the spine.
