The type of joint the epiphyseal plate is temporary synchondrosis.
Chondrosis, or primary cartilage joints, affects only the hyaline cartilage and may be temporary or permanent. The bone grows longer inside. In children, the epiphyseal plate connects the diaphysis (the trunk of the bone) to the epiphysis (the end of the bone). Over time, the cartilage plates expand and replace bone, expanding the diaphysis.
Eventually, when all the hyaline cartilage is ossified, the bone lengthens and the diaphysis and epiphysis fuse to form a fusion. Other temporary arthropathies lead to the ilium, ischium, and pubis of the hip joint. Over time, these too will fuse into one hip bone.
Permanent synchondrosis does not ossify with age. It retains the hyaline cartilage. Permanent arthrosis serves to connect bones without movement as joints. An example is the rib cage, such as the first sternocostal joint. The first rib is connected to the manubrium by its costal cartilage. Another example is the relationship between the anterior ends of her other 11 ribs and the costal cartilage.
