Chapter 5 - Shoulder Complex Flashcards
Shoulder Complex
involves the sternum, clavicle, ribs, scapula, and humerus
osteologic features of the sternum
manubrium
clavicular facets
costal facets
jugular notch
osteologic features of the clavicle
shaft sternal end costal facet costal tuberosity acromial end acromial facet
muscle attachments of the sternum
pectoralis major
subclavius
part of sternocleidomastoid
muscle attachments to the clavicle
pectoralis major
sternocleidomastoid
anterior deltoid
upper trapezius
orientation of the clavicle
about 20 degrees posterior to frontal plane
orientation of the scapula
deviated about 35 degrees anterior to the frontal plane
retroversion of the humeral head
about 30 degrees posterior to the medial-lateral axis at the elbow
attached to the coracoid process
short head of biceps coracobrachialis pectoralis minor trapezoid ligament conoid ligament coracohumeral ligament coracoacromial ligament
attachments to superior part of humerus
Greater tubercle = supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor
lesser tubercle = subscapularis
pectoralis major - latissimus dorsi - teres major
deltiod
coracobrachialis
osteologic features of the proximal-to-mid humerus
head anatomic neck lesser tubercle greater tubercle facets on greater tubercle intertubercular groove deltoid tuberosity radial groove
shaft of humerus to humeral head comparison
135 degree angle of inclination
30 degree retroversion of the humeral head relative to the distal humerus
Primary movements of scapulothoracic joint
elevation & depression
protraction & retraction
upward & downward rotation
(pictures pg. 14 Ch 5)
Movements of the sternoclavicular joint
Elevation & Depression(frontal plane)
Protraction & depression(horizontal plane)
Axial rotation(sagittal plane)
structures stabilizing the SC joint
capsule
anterior and posterior sternoclavicular ligaments
interclavicular ligament
costoclavicular ligament
articular disc
sternocleidomastoid, sternothyroid, sternohyoid, subclavius
elevation of the clavicle
convex surface rolls superiorly and slides inferiorly
- costoclavicular ligament helps limit
depression of clavicle
convex surface rolls inferiorly and slides superiorly
- stretches the interclavicular ligament and superior capsule
retraction of clavicle
concave surface of clavicle rolls and slides posteriorly on the convex sternum
- stretch anterior costoclavicular ligament and anterior capsule
- 15-30 degrees
protraction of the clavicle
concave surface of clavicle rolls and slides anteriorly on convex surface of sternum
- stretch posterior of costoclavicular ligament, posterior capsule, scapular retractor muscles
- 15-30 degrees
axial rotation of the clavicle
longitudinal rotation
- occurs during shoulder abduction or flexion
- 20-35 rotation
acromioclavicular joint
3 degrees of freedom
- plane joint
- upwards & downward rotation
- horizontal plane rotational adjustments(scapula rotates)
- sagittal plane rotational adjustments(scapula rotates anterior/posterior)
tissues that stabilize the AC joint
superior and inferior AC joint capsular ligaments coracoclavicular ligament(trapezoid and conoid) - supports weight of upper extremity articular disc(when present) deltoid and upper trapezius
upward rotation of AC joint
occurs as scapula swings upwardly and outwardly
- component of shoulder abduction or flexion
- 30 degrees
downward rotation of AC joint
- component of shoulder adduction or extension
horizontal plane adjustments of the AC joint
evident as the medial border of the scapula pivots away and toward the posterior surface of the thorax(internal and external rotation)
sagittal plane adjustments of AC joint
medial-lateral axis
- inferior angle pivots away or toward the posterior surface of the thorax(anterior tilting and posterior tilting)
scapulothoracic joint
between anterior surface of scapula and posterior-lateral wall of thorax
- separated by subscapularis, serratus anterior, erector spinae
scapulathoracic elevation
elevation at SC joint and downward rotation at AC joint
scapulothoracic protration
protraction at SC joint and slight IR at AC joint
scapulothoracic retraction
retraction at SC joint and slight ER at AC joint
scapulothoracic upward rotation
elevation at the SC joint and upward rotation at AC joint
