Q

What is the contents of the carpal tunner?

A
  • flexor digitorum profundus (four tendons)
  • flexor digitorum superficialis (four tendons)
  • flexor pollicis longus (one tendon)
  • the median nerve

flexor carpi radialis (one tendon), considered by some as part of the carpal tunnel although it is more precise to state that it travels in the flexor retinaculum which covers the carpal tunnel, rather than running in the tunnel itself.

Q

In the hand, what does the ulnar nerve supply?

A

Superficial branch, sensory to;

  • palmar surfaces of LF and half of RF

Deep branch, motor to;

  • hypothenar muscles
  • adductor pollicis
  • lumbricals III and IV
  • all the interossei

i.e. all of the hand mucles except the thenar muscles and the lateral 2 lumbricals

28
Q

What are the thenar muscles? (3)

A

Adductor policis brevis
Felxor pollicis brevis
Opponens pollicis

29
Q

What is the sensory innervation of the anterior hand ?

A
  • Median supplies thenar muscles and the lateral 2 lumbricals
  • Ulnar supplies all of the other intrinsic hand muscles
30
Q

What are the attachements of the carpal tunnel?

A

–Scaphoid, trapezoid, pisiform, hamate

31
Q

What are the 3 types of grip?

A

Power grip

Precision grip

Hook grip

32
Q

Which muscles are required for a power grip?

A

–long flexors of the fingers and thumb

–intrinsic muscles of the palm

–extensors of the wrist joint!

33
Q

What nerve roots make up the brachial plexus?

A

C5-T1

34
Q

Which roots make up the Superior, Middle and Inferior trunks?

A

Superior - C5-C6

Middle - C7

INFERIOR - C8-T1

35
Q

What are the 3 divisions of the brachial plexus?

A

Lateral

Posterior

Medial

36
Q

Which nerve roots supply the reflexes?

A

S1,2 = ankle jerk L3,4 = knee jerk C5,6 = biceps and brachioradialis C7,8 = triceps

One, two– buckle my shoe. Three, four– kick the door. Five, six– pick up sticks. Seven, eight– shut the gate.

37
Q

Which nerve roots supply small muslces of the the hand (fine movements)

A

C8-T1

38
Q

What are the terminal branches of the posterior cord?

A

Axillary and the radial neerves

39
Q

Which nerve is commonly damamged in shoulder dislocations?

A

Axillary nerve

40
Q

Why is the radial nerve commonly damamged and what is the result of this

A

It runs very closely to the bone inthe spiral groove so a break to the humerus can damage the radial nerve

Cause wrist drop (loss of power grip as flexor tendons cannot be shortened) and anaesthesia of the dorsal palm

(loss of arm extension if damage further up)

41
Q

What is the terminal branch of the lateral cord?

A

Musculocutaneous nerve

42
Q

What does the musculocutaneous nerve innervate?

A

Muscles of the anterior compartment of the arm:

  • Coracobrachialis
  • biceps brachii
  • brachialis

Skin of lateral aspect of the forearm

43
Q

From which cord is the ulnar nerve derived?

A

Medial cord

44
Q

What results from damamge to the ulnar nerve?

A

Claw deformity

Loss of lumbrical contraction means loss of flexion of the MPJs and weakened extension of the IPJs.

45
Q

What is the ulnar paradox and why does this happen?

A

Ulnar injury at the wrist results in a more severe deformity (clawing) than injury at the elbow

This is because the ulnar nerve also innervates the ulnar half of FDP, flexion of the IP joints is weakened, therefore less claw-like appearance

46
Q

What forms the median nerve?

A

Lateral root which is a branch of lateral cord and the medial root of the medial cord

47
Q

Which parts of the hand does the median nerve innervate?

A

Sensory = thumb , index finger, middle finger and half of the ring finger

Motor = recurrent branch supplies the muscles of the thenar eminence DOES NOT INCLUDE ADDUCTOR POLLICIS, AS THIS IS ULNAR NERVE

48
Q

Where does the long thoracic nerve arrise and what does it innervate?

A

Posterior aspect of anterior rami of C5, C6, C7.

Innervates serratus anterior

49
Q

Name a conditions (palsy ) that might cause injury to the upper roots and what might be thre reslt of this?

A

Erb-Duchenne Palsy

=”Waiter’s Tip” position. Forearm pronated by lack of biceps supinatio. Loss of flexion at the elbow. Flexion of the wrist.

50
Q

Name a condition that might result from injury to lower roots

A

Klumpke’s palsy. T1 (sometimes c8)

Loss of their activity results in clawed hand.

Name the bones of the pelvis
