Cartilage is an important structural component of the body. It is a firm tissue but is softer and much more flexible than bone.

Cartilage is a connective tissue found in many areas of the body including:

  • Joints between bones e.g. the elbows, knees and ankles
  • Ends of the ribs
  • Between the vertebrae in the spine
  • Ears and nose
  • Bronchial tubes or airways

Cartilage is made up of specialized cells called chondrocytes.

Cartilage is a resilient and smooth elastic tissue, a rubber-like padding that covers and protects the ends of long bones at the joints, and is a structural component of the rib cage, the ear, the nose, the bronchial tubes, the intervertebral discs, and many other body components.
