Ch 5 Shoulder rough review Flashcards
infraspinous fossa
subscapular fossa
Supraspinous fossa
What is abduction? (of the humerus)
What fossa is located on the distal posterior humerus?
Olecranon fossa
what is extension of the humerus?
What is adduction?
what is flexion of the humerus
In an AP humerus is the humerus flexed or extended?
extended
AP external shoulder/humerus
greater tubercle in profile
supination of hand
epicondyles parallel to the IR
for a lateral humerus is the humerus flexed or extended?
flexed
What projection causes the lesser tubercle to be in profile?
Internal rotation/projection
Internal shoulder/humerus
humerus is true lateral
hand is pronated
epicondyles perpendicular to the IR
Lesser Tubercle in profile
neutral shoulder/humerus
appropriate for trauma patient when rotation is not possible
epicondyles are 45 degrees to the IR
palm of the hand is facing inward
what projections causes the greater tubercle to be in profile?
external rotation/projection
if the epicondyles are parallel what is in profile?
greater tubercle
GELI abbreviation
if the epicondyles are perpendicular what is in profile?
lesser tubercle
Colles fx
smiths fx
boxers fx
what is a rotator cuff tear?
inferosuperior axillary projection
patient supine
CR 25 to 30 degrees centered horizontally to axilla and humeral head
best shows Hill-Sachs defect
what consists of the shoulder girdle?
scapula
clavicle
NOT humerus
internal shoulder positioning
abduct arm slightly
pronate arm (internally rotate arm)
epicondyles perpendicular to IR
CR 1 inch inferior to coracoid process

External shoulder positioning
abduct arm slights
hand supinated (externally rotate arm)
epicondyles parallel to IR
CR 1 inch inferior to coracoid process
Grashey method
patients body rotated 35 to 45 degrees toward affected side
abduct arm slightly with arm flexed in neutral rotation
CR is 2 inferior and 2 inches medial to scapulohumeral joint
