impingement syndrom

50
Q

damage to glenoid labrum; results in pain and limited motion in shoulder joint

A

labral tear

51
Q

involves the long head of the biceps proximally as it crosses the humeral head, changes direction, and descends into bicipital groove; a rupture of biceps long head tendon commonly occurs during repetitive or forceful overhead positions

A

bicipital tendonitis

52
Q

chronic inflammation of supraspinatus tendon can lead to an accumulation of mineral deposits; may be asymptomatic or quite painful

A

calcific tendonitis

53
Q

overloading the muscle in an abducted and laterally rotated positions tends to be the force subluxing the tendon out of the bicipital groove

A

subluxing of biceps tendon

54
Q

divides into superior, middle, inferior; reinforce the anterior portion of the capsule; pleated folds of capsule

A

glenohumeral ligaments

Q

attaches from lateral side of coracoid process and spans the joint anteriorly to the medial side of greater tubercle; strengthens upper part of joint capsule

A

coracohumeral ligament

56

fibrous ring that surrounds the rim of glenoid fossa; function: deepen articular cavity

A

glenoid labrum

57
Q

large and located between the deltoid muscle and joint capsule

A

subdeltoid bursa

58
Q

lies below the acromion and coracoacromial ligament between them and joint capsule

A

subacromial bursa

59
