planar synovial

36
Q

On what part of a thoracic vertebra are the superior and inferior articulating facets?

A

body of vertebra

37
Q

What is a colle’s fracture?

A

fracture of distal end of radius; usually avulses styloid process of ulna

38
Q

What typically causes damage to the inferior part of the brachial plexus?

A

dramatically increasing angle btw trunk and upper limb

39
Q

How many anterior spinal arteries are there?

A

1

40
Q

What type of joint is the lateral atlantoaxial?

A

planar synovial

41
Q

Where is the ulnar canal/guyon tunnel, why is it important?

A

depression btw pisiform and hamulus of hamate - where ulnar passes and is susceptible to compression

42
Q

To cut off all blood supply to the arm, where must ligation be done?

A

distal to subscapular A of the axillary A

if above subscapular - can reverse flow and go to brachial A thru other arteries

A

axillary nerve

posterior circumflex humeral artery and circumflex scapular artery

49
Q

What is the most common site of venipuncture and why?

A

median cubital v. because of its superficial location and protection of underlying deep structures by the bicipital aponeurosis

50
