Anatomy MSK S28-35 Flashcards
Where are the adhesions of fascia in the arm?
Not in lower forarm to allow them to move independently. Closer to the elbow there are more adhesion from
what are the layers of the anterior(flexor) compartment of the forarm/
4 layers
What is the first layer of the forarm(most superficial)?
There are 4 muscles to wrist and shorter one. pronator teres, 3 indicidual (palmaris longus, flexor carpi ulnaris, flexor carpi radialis) group of 4 tendons for fingers that does flexion of finders
Describe pronator teres?
Cylindrical muscles used for pronation between medial epicondyl do middle of radius
What is palmaris longus?
Palmar fascia not all have it
What is palmaris brevis?
It closes the palm from the fascia
What does flexor carpi radialis do?
It runs from the elbow to the carpal bones to flex the wrist
What do felxor digitorum superficialis do?
They flex the proximal interphalangeal and metacarpal joints
Where is pronator quadratus?
it pronates the arm and isbetween the radius and ulnar
Which nerve runs through the carpel tunnel?
Median nerve
What does the path of the cephalic vein do?
palmar arch in the back of the hand and joind thumb vein and runs along forarm to the antegubital fossa and in grooe between biceps
What is the path of the basilar vein?
From the arch on the medial side of elbow to connect at the brachial vein
Which nerve supplies the to anterior arm?
Musculocutaneous nerve
What nerve supplies the posterior arm and forarm?
The radial nerve
What nerve supplies the anterior of the forarm?
Mainly median all but 2 which are by the ulnar(flexor carpi ulnaris flexor digitorum profundus to medial two fingers)
How are the metacarpal bones arranged/
In two rows
Name the metacarpal bones
scaphoid lunatetriquertral and pisiform. trapezium trapezioud capitate and hammate
Which metacarpals communicate with the radius?
scaphoid and lunate
Which metacarpal articulates with the thumb?
The trapezium
What is the importance of the scaphoid?
If it is fractured its blood supply can be cut off
What supplies the superficial palmar arch?
The ulnar artery
Which blood vessel goes between the metacarpals?
The radial artery forming the deep palmar arch
Which muscles are there in the hands?
The lumbricals
What allows tendons in the hand to move freely?
A synovial sheath
What stops the tendons from coming away from the bones when contracting?
A thick fascia called a retinaulum
Where does the flexor digitorum superficialis attach to?
the middle phallanyx so flexes the proximal interphalangeal joint
How are the flexor tendons arranged?
The distal runs under the superficialis that has a fork to allow it to flex the furthest joint eaily
What connect the superficial and deep tendons?
The vincula for blood supply
what is the origin and insertion of the index lumbrical?
The profundor tendon, and the extensor tendon on the other side of the hand
What does the lumbrical do?
it helps bend the metacarpal pallangeal joints whie straightening the interphallangeal joints
What are the muscles of the thum?
Abductor pollicis brevis/ longus flexor policis brevis, oppenens poicis, adducter policis
What is the action opponens policisi?
IT rotates the thumb to help it oppose
What muscle attaches to the little finger?
The abductor digiti minimi
What does oppennens digiti minimi do?
It rotates the litttle finger to oppose
What are the dorsal ineroses muscles attached do?
The middle phalynx.
How do you remember dorsal interosseous?
Palmar interossei ADduct PAD
Dorsal interosei ABduct DAB
How many interossi are there on the dorum of the hand?
4
what is the innervation of the hand muscles?
LLOAF Lateral 2 lumbricals oppenens policis abductor policis brevis flexor policis brevis are median nerve and the rest are all ulnar nerve
What is sensory supply of the hand?
Ulnar litttle and half of the next and palm median is the palm and other fingers and thumb. radial nerve is back of hand for all but little and half of the next finger
What is sensory supply of the hand?
Ulnar litttle and half of the next and palm median is the palm and other fingers and thumb. radial nerve is back of hand for all but little and half of the next finger can vary
What is the common origin of the extensor group of the forarm
lateral epicondyl of the humerous
What does extensor carpi ulnaris do?
It extends the wrist
What is the insertion of the extensor carpi ulnaris?
the carpal bones
What muscle extends the little finger/
extensor digiti minimi
What muscle extends the fingers?
Extensor digitorum
Which muscles go under the extensor retinaculum but als another two musles?
The extensor carpi radialis which has two tendonsone that starts longer and one firther down brevis and longus
What are the muscles of the superficial extensor compartment?
The extensor carpi ulnaris, extensor carpi radialis brevis and longus, extensor digiti minimi, extensor digitorum
