Back and neck muscles (lec 5) Flashcards
Extrinsic muscles (types of muscles)
- superficiel mucles
primary function of extrinsic muscles
movement of the upper limb
innervation of the extrinsic muscles
Anterior rami of spinal nerves
Attachement site of the intrinsic muscles of the back
vertebrae or ribs
the primary function of the intrinsic muscle of the back
movement and support of the vertebral column
innervation of the intrinsic muscles of the back
postériori rami of spinal nerves
muscles of the #1 layer (superficial) of the extrinsic muscles
- latissimus dorsi
- Trapezius
origine of the latissimus dorsi
T7-T12 spinous process thoracolumbar fascia, ilium
insertion of the latissimus dorsi
intertubercular groove of humerus
Function of the Latissimus dorsi
Primary at shoulder
- in back: bilateral function - spine extension
- in back: unilateral function - ipsilateral (same side), lateral flexion of lumbar spine
innervation of the latissimus dorsi
thoracodorsal n. (C6-C8)
- limb mucle, but synergist of other back muscles
the shape of the trapezius
diamond
the origin of the trapezius
back of skull, spinous processes C7-T12, nuchal ligament
insertion of the trapezius
scapula
function of the trapezius (with fixed scapula)
- bilateral function: neck extension
- unilateral funcition: ipsilateral: lateral flexion, contralateral: rotation of the cervical spine
innervation of the trapezius
accessory spinal n.
Function of the trapezius (with fixed scapula)
- bilateral function: neck extension
-unilateral function: ipsilateral: lateral flexion, contralateral: rotation of the cervical spine
innervation of the trapezius
accessory spinal n.
origin of the elevator scapulae
cervical spine
ins of the levator scapulae
superior/medial border of scapula
fonction of the levator scapulae
primary movement of scapula
secondary: movement at cervical spine (neck)
-unilateral - ipsilateral, lateral flexion of cervical spine
- bilateral - extension of cervical spine
innervation of the levator scapula
C3-C5
the shaped of the rhomboid major and minor
like rhomboids
orig of the rhomboid
cervical and thoracic spine
ins of the rhomboid
inferomedial border of the scapula
funcition of the rhomboid
none in back, movement of the scapula
innervation of the rhomboid
Dorsal scapular (C5)
