Shoulder and elbow joint, and their muscles
1
Q
Shoulder joint (art. humeri)
A
- Classification:
-
Synovial
- Spheoid joint (multiaxial) (but functions as a hinge joint)
- Articulatio simplex
-
Synovial
-
Movement:
- Eq, ru: only flexion - extension
- Ca: also rotation, abduction - adduction
- With cavum glenoidale → caput humeri
- One joint capsule with 3 cranial and 2 caudal pouches
-
Labrum glenoidale
-
Ligg. glenohumeralia (eq, ca)
- Thickened part of the capsule in:
- Ca: medial and lateral walls
- Eq: medial, lateral and cranial walls
- Thickened part of the capsule in:
-
Lig. coracohumerale (eq, ru)
- Capsular ligament between scapula → humerus
-
Ligg. glenohumeralia (eq, ca)
- No collateral ligament, instead:
- M. infraspinatus (lateral)
- M. subscapularis (medial)
- Ca: part of the joint capsule surrounds tendon of m. biceps brachii and forms vagina synovialis intertubercularis
- Eq, bo: bursa bicipitalis under tendon of m. biceps brachii
2
Q
Shoulder joint (art. humeri)
List the flexors and extensors of the shoulder joint
A
Flexors of the shoulder (ca):
-
M. deltoideus
- Pars acromialis
- Pars scapularis
- M. infraspinatus
- M. teres minor
- M. teres major
- M. triseps brachii, caput longum
- M. subscapularis
Extensors of the shoulder (ca)
- M. supraspinatus
- M. biceps brachii
- M. coracobrachialis

3
Q
Give the lateral shoulder muscles
A
4
Q
M. supraspinatus
A
- Origin: Fossa supraspinatus and the cranial border of the scapula
- Insertion: T**uerculum major of the humerus
-
Action:
- Extend shoulder joint
- Stabilize shoulder joint
5
Q
M. infraspinatus
A
-
Origin:
- Fossa infraspinatus
- Spina scapula
- Margo caudalis scapulae
- Insertion: Facies m. infraspinati of humerus
-
Action:
- Flexes shoulder joint
- Acts as a lateral collateral ligament for shoulder joint
- Ca: Assists in supination and abduction of the humerus
6
Q
M. deltoideus
A
- In ca and ru it can be divided into:
- Pars acromialis
- Pars scapularis
-
Origin:
- Pars scapularis: Caudal edge of spina scapulae
- Pars acromialis: Acromium of the scapula
- Eq, sus: Spina scapula (the two parts of the muscle are fused)
- Insertion: The tuberosita deltoidea of humerus
- Action: Flex shoulder joint
7
Q
M. teres minor
A
-
Origin:
- Tuberculum infraglenoidale
- Distal part of margo caudalis scapulae
- Insertion: Tuberculum teres minor of the humerus (laterally)
- Action: Flexes shoulder joint
8
Q
Give the medial shoulder muscles
A
9
Q
M. subscapularis
A
- Origin: F**ossa subscapularis
- Insertion: Tuberculum minus of humerus
-
Action:
- Extend shoulder joint (and helps with flexion)
- Act as a collateral ligament
- Adduct
- Stabilize the shoulder joint
10
Q
M. teres major
A
-
Origin:
- Margo caudalis scapulae
- Angulus caudalis scapulae
- Insertion: Tuberculum teres major of the humerus (same as latissimus dorsi)
-
Action:
- Flex the shoulder joint
- Rotates the limb inwards (medially)
11
Q
M. coracobrachialis
A
- Origin: Processus coracoideus of the scapula
- Insertion: Crista tuberculi minor of humerus
-
Action:
- Extend shoulder joint
- Adduct
12
Q
M. articularis humeri
A
Eq, and sometimes Sus
- Action: To tense the joint capsule
13
Q
Give the other muscles that take part in the flexion/extension of the shoulder joint
A
- Lateral head of m. triceps brachii – Flexion
- M. latissimus dorsi - Flexion
- M. biceps brachii – Extension
14
Q
Elbow joint (art. cubiti)
- Features
- Ligaments
- Draw art. cubiti
A
-
Hinge joint(monoaxial)
- Flexion - extension
- Composite joint
-
Between:
- Humerus (condyle)
- Radius (caput)
- Ulna (incisura trochlearis)
- Three joints:
- Art. circumferentia → art. radio ulna
- Art. humeroradialis
- Art. humeroulnaris
-
Capsula articularis
- Recessus cranialis
- Recessus caudalis (large)
- Epicondyles and olecranon is outside of the capsule
Ligaments:
-
Lig. collaterale cubiti mediale
- E**picondylus medialis → radius (ca: and ulna)
-
Lig. collaterale cubiti laterale
- Epicondylus lateralis → radius (ca, ru: and ulna)
-
Lig. olecrani (Ca)
- Fossa olecrani of humerus → olecranon of ulna
15
Q
Give the muscles of art. cubiti
A
- Mainly situated around humerus
- Origin: humerus and scapula
- Insertion: proximally on radius/ulna
- Action: mainly flexion/extension
Flexors of the elbow (ca):
- M. biceps brachii
- M. brachialis
Extensors of the elbow (ca):
-
M. triceps brachii
