bones and bony landmarks, bursa, ligaments, joints, joint capsules Flashcards
refers to a grove located on the distal anterior surface of the femur
Trochlear groove
A ligament that runs from the medial epicondyle of the femur to the proximal medial tibia
Tibial collateral ligament
the rough , low ridge along the posterior femur and serves as the attachment site for the hip adductors
Linea aspera
a slightly concave surface on the medial proximal tibia that articulates with the medial femoral condyle
Medial Tibial condyle
ligament that connects the posterior intercondylar surface of the tibia to the lateral aspect of the medial femoral condyle
posterior cruciate ligament
the projection in the lateral intercondylar are of the tibia
lateral Tibial tubercle
concave, semicircular fibrocartilaginous discs on the Tibial condyles
Menisci
the 1._______ and 2.______ are two ligaments that attach the clavicle to the coracoid process and share the name 3.________________
- Trapzoid ligament 2. conoid ligament 3. coracoclavicular ligaments
a ligament that connects the acromion and coracoid process
coracoacromial ligament
the 1____________ligament and 2 ____________ joint connects the inferior and medial clavicle and the superior and lateral acromion together
1.Acromioclavicular ligament 2, Acromial clavicular joint
the 1._________ ligament lies superior to the glenohumeral joint capsules and Laterally connects the humerus to the coracoid process
coracohumeral ligament
the proximal bone of the arm articulates with the glenoid fossa of the scapula to form the 2.__________
- humerus 2. glenohumeral joint
triangular shaped bone of the upper back , along with the clavicle plays a vital role on stabilization and movements of the arm.
scapula
the edges of the scapula are
spine of the scapula / medial border / inferior angle / superior angle / lateral border / infraglenoid tubercle
the trenches of the scapula
Subscapular fossa / Supraspinous fossa / Infraspinous fossa
two hill and a valley of the humerus
greater tubercle / intertubercular grove / lesser tubercle
attachment for (posterior) deltoid and (middle and lower) fibers of the trapezius
spine of the scapula of the scapula
attachment for rhomboids (major and minor) and serratus anterior
Medial border of the scapula
postural condition in which the medial border falls away from the rib cage and visibly protrudes posteriorly . often indicating a weak serratus anterior muscle, petoralis major and minor
Winged scapula
attachment site for levator scapula
superior angle of the scapula
attachment site for teres major and teres minor
lateral border of the scapula
attachment site for the long head of the triceps brachii
Infraglenoid tubercle of the humerus
filled with the Infraspinatus muscle
infraspinous fossa
basin filled with the supraspinatus muscle
Supraspinous fossa
