B6-010 Joints and Imaging Flashcards
only attachment of upper limb to axial skeleton
sternoclavicular joint
movement of this physiologic joint aids in elevation of the upper extremity
scapulothoracic joint
for upper limb elevation, there is 120 degrees of […] abduction, and an additional 25 degrees at the […] to complete abduction
glenohumoral
sternoclacvicular
what muscles attach to the coracoid process? [3]
short head of the biceps brachii
coracobrachialis
pectoralis minor
ligaments of the sternoclavivular joint [4]
anterior sternoclavicular
posterior sternoclavicular
interclavicular
costoclavicular
what ligament prevents excessive elevation of the clavicle?
costoclavicular
what nerves may cause pain in the arcomioclavicular joint? [3]
axillary
lateral pectoral
supraclavicular
what is the movement of the acromioclavicular joint?
rotation
fibrocartilage disc encircling glenoid fossa
glenoid labrum
the superior, middle, and inferior glenohumeral ligaments can only be viewed
internally
what ligament helps prevent superior shoulder dislocations?
coracoacromial
the tendon of the [….] passes between the greater and lesser tubercles
long head of biceps
the [….] ligament crosses between the greater and lesser tubercles, keeping the long head of the biceps between them
transverse humeral
where does the tendon of the long head of biceps attach?
supraglenoid tubercle
some fibers also attach to labrum
occurs when great force is applied to the biceps
or in athletes with repetitive abduction and external rotation (pitchers)
SLAP tear of glenoid labrum
common tears seen at the labrum with SLAP injury [2]
superior anterior
superior posterior
if this bursa becomes inflamed, it causes tenderness at the point of the shoulder and individual will not want to move limb
subacromial
what two boney structures provide lateral humeral-radial articulation?
capitulum of humerus
head of radius
what two boney structures provide medial humeral-ulnar articulation?
trochlea of humerus
trochlear notch of ulna
joint formed by radial head and radial notch of ulna
proximal radial ulnar joint
what joints allows for supination and pronation of the elbow?
proximal/distal radial-ulnar joint
fossa on posterior aspect of humerus
olecranon
fossa on anterior aspect of humerus
coronoid
the […] is where the biceps attaches distally
radial tuberoscity
at what point do we get the movements of pronation and supination?
point of radial tuberoscity
pain at the elbow joint is provided by what nerves? [3]
musculocutaneous
radial
ulnar
attaches humerus to radius
radial collateral ligament
attaches humerus to ulna
ulnar collateral ligament
what ligament is repaired in Tommy-Johns surgery?
ulnar collateral
ligament that goes around the head of the radius
annular ligament
what ligament keeps the radial head in the notch of the radius during pronation and supination?
annular ligament
how to reduce radial head subluxation
thumb on head of radius, flex/supinate until it pops back in

**bones will not fuse until puberty
the distal radio- ulnar joint allows for what movement?
supination and pronation
the radius articulates with what carpal bones to form the radio-carpal joint? [3]
scaphoid
lunate
triquetrum
an articular disc lies between the distal ulna and the
triquetrum
does the ulna participate in the radio-carpal joint?
no
what allows the thumb its movement pattern?
saddle joint of CMC
the scapulothoracic is an example of a […] joint
physiologic
what ligament prevents excessive elevation of the clavicle?
costoclavicular
what ligaments reinforce the sternoclavicular joint?
anterior and posterior sternoclavicular
what ligament strengthens the AC joint superiorly?
acromioclavicular
what ligaments anchor the clavicle in the AC joint?
coracoclaviculars
hilton’s law
any muscle that acts on the joint will send articular nerve branches to supply the joint
nerves that supply the sternoclavicular joint [2]
supraclavicular
subclavius
nerves that supply the glenohumeral joint [3]
axillary
suprascapular
lateral pectoral
nerves that supply the elbow joint [3]
musculocutaneous
ulnar
radial
forceful eccentric traction on the […] can tear the glenoid labrum
biceps brachii
muscles responsible for flexion of the arm [4]
pectoralis major
anterior head of deltoid
coracobrachialis
biceps brachii
responsible for extension, adduction, and medial rotation of the arm
latissimus dorsi
responsible for extension and lateral rotation of the arm
posterior deltoid
responsible for adduction and medial rotation of the arm
teres major
