Anatomy Flashcards
Sympathetic system
T1 to L3
2nd to 7th ribs
17 muscles
4 ligaments
Scapula
Retroversion of glenoid
5 degrees
Attachments to coracoid
Coracoacromial ligament
Coracoclavicular ligaments
Conjoined tendon (coroacobrachialis, short head biceps)
Long term nerve compression at the spinoglenoid notch
Infraspinatus atrophy
Fulcrum for lateral movement of arm
Clavicle
Ossificiation clavicle
Ossify - 5 weeks aog
Fuse - 25 yo
Static restraints glenohumeral joint
Articular anatomy Glenoid labrum Negative pressure Capsule Ligaments
Gelnohumeral dynamic restraints
Rotator cuff
Biceps tendon
Between the anterior border of the supraspinatus and the superior border of the subscapilaris
Rotator interval - helps limit flexion and external rotation of the shoulder
Prevents anteroposterior displacement of shoulder
Acromioclavicular ligament
Important for superoanterior restraint in rotator cuff deficiencies
Coracoacromial ligament
Source of bleeding during the release of the coracoacromial ligament
Acromial branch of the thoracoacromial artery
Formed from the ventral rami c5 to t1
Under the clavicle between the scalenius anterior and scalenius medius
Brachial plexus
Shoulder supporting anatomic layers
I. Deltoid, pectoralis major, trapezius
II. Clavipectoral fascia, conjoined tendon, short head of biceps, coracobrachialis
III. Deep layer of subdeltoid bursa, rotator cuff
IV. Glenohumeral joint capsule, coracohumeral ligament
Mucles upper limb to vertebral column
Trapezius
Latissimus dorsi
Rhomboid
Levator scapulae
Muscles upper limb to thoracic wall
Pecs
Teres major
SITS
Muscles acting on shoulder joint
Deltoid
Teres major
SITS
Preclavicular branches of brachial plexus
Dorsal scapular nerve c5
Long thoracic nerve c5-c7
Suprascapular nerve c5-c6 (superior trunk)
Nerve to subclavius c6
Medial scular winging (long thoracic nerve)
Horner’s syndrome (c8-t1)
Preganglionic brachial plexus
Lateral winging of scapula
Spinal accessory nerve
Trapezius dysfunction
Weakness of deltoid, rotator cuff, elbow flexors, wrist and hand extensors
Erb-duchenne
C5-c6
Weakness of wrist flexors and intrinsic apparatus
Horner syndrome
Klumpke’s
Axillary artery branches
I. Supreme thoracic
II. Thoracoacromial (deltoid, acromial, clavicular, pectoral); lateral thoracic
III. Subscapular; anterior humeral circumflex; posterior humeral circumflex
