back - k. wright Flashcards
only bony articulation of scapula with skeleton
sternoclavicular joint
scapulothoracic joint between
sub-scapularis and
serratus anterior
innervation of trapezius
motor: accessory nerve/ CN11
sensory: C3/C4 spinal nerves
innervation of latissimus dorsi
thoracodorsal nerve (C6,C7,C8)
levator scapulae innervation
C3/C4 spinal nerves
dorsal scapular nerve
rhmoboid major and minor innervation
dorsal scapular nerve
trapezius action and blood supply
elevates, depresses and retracts scapula
- rotates glenoid fossa superiorly
(transverse cervical artery)
sheath of ligamentous tissue running down spinal column
nuchal ligament
latissimus dorsi actions and blood supply
- extends, adducts and medially rotates humerus
- raises torso towards arms during climbing
(thoracodorsal artery)
actions of rhomboid major & minor and blood supply
BOTH retract, elevate and rotate scapula downward
and fix it to thoracic wall
(dorsal scapular artery)
actiosn and blood supply of levator scapulae
PRIMARY function: elevate scapula tilts glenoid fossa inferiorly by rotating scapula (downward roation) blood supply (dorsal scapular artery)
subclavian artery has 3 divisions in relation to
anterior scalene muscle
commonly found branches of medial part of subclavian artery
internal thoracic (mammary a.)
verebral a.
thyrocervical arterial trunk
branches from thyrocervical arterial trunk
- transverse cervical artery (superficial branch and deep branch/ dorsal scapular artery)
posterior part of subclavian artery has
supreme intercostal artery
deep cervical artery
a. that may arise from lateral part of subclavian a.
dorsal scapular a.
scapular anastamoses 5 arteries
suprascapular artery dorsal scapular artery posterior intercostal arteries circumflex scapular artery thoracodorsal artery
serratus posterior superior innervation
T2-T5 intercostal nerves
serratus posterior inferior innervation
T9-T12
blood supply of an dinnervation of splneius cervicis and splenius capitis
transverse cervical artery, occipital artery and muscular branches form aota
inn. = dorsal rami of spinal nerves
innervation of erector spinae muscles
dorsal rami of spinal nerves
intertransversari innervation
dorsl and VENTRAL rami of spinal nerves
what structures are ofund in space of suboccipital triangle?
vertebral a.
suboccipital n.
remember VANS
what are the muscles of suboccipitla region
rectus capitis posterior major/ minor
obliquus capitis superior/ inferior
occipital nerualgia cuase
irriation of greater occipital and lesser occipital n. (dorsal and ventral rami C2)
