ANAT: Pectoral and Shoulder Flashcards
Bones of pectoral girdle
Clavicle, Scapula, Humerus
*Accessory include: Sternum, ribs, glenohumeral joint
Pectoral girdle
Bony ring formed by the scapula and the clavicle
Teres major m. ORIGIN
Posterior side of scapula, near inferior angle
Teres major m. INSERTION
medial lip of the intertubercular groove, near the insertion of the latissimus dorsi (anterior, superior part of the humeral shaft)
Teres major m. INNERVATION
lower subscapular n.
Teres major m. BLOOD
subscapular a.
Teres major m. ACTION
extension, aDduction, and medial rotation of the humerus (same actions on the humerus/glenohumeral joint as latissimus dorsi)
Deltoid m. ORIGIN
Lateral 1/3 of clavicle, acromion, and spine of scapula; similar to insertion of trapezius
Deltoid m. INSERTION
deltoid tuberosity of humerus
Deltoid m. INNERVATION
Axillary n. (also supplies skin over deltoid)
Deltoid m. BLOOD
Posterior circumflex humeral a.
- courses with the axillary n. in the quadrangular space
Deltoid m. ACTIONS
Anterior: flexes and medially rotates
Lateral: aBducts
Posterior: extends and laterally rotates
Synovial Bursa
between the greater tubercle of the humerus, the deltoid m. and the acromion
*Flat sac of synovial membrane, lubricates motion
Rotator cuff muscles
Subscapularis m.
Supraspinatus m.
Infraspinatus m.
Teres minor m.
Subscapularis m. ORIGIN
Subscapular fossa
Subscapularis m. INSERTION
lesser tubercular of the humerus
Subscapularis m. INNERVATION
upper and lower subscapular nn.
Subscapularis m. BLOOD
Subscapular a.
Subscapularis m. ACTION
medially rotates the humerus (only one!)
Supraspinatus m. ORIGIN
supraspinous fossa
Supraspinatus m. INSERTION
superior part of the greater tubercle of the humerus
