Dissection 10 Flashcards
What nerve supplies the anterior compartment of the arm?
musculocutaneous
What are the 3 muscles in the anterior compartment of the arm?
biceps brachii; coracobrachialis; brachialis
What are the proximal attachments of biceps brachii?
supraglenoid tubercle of the scapula via the long head and the coracoid process of th scapula via the short head
What 3 muscles attach to the coracoid process?
pectoralis minor; coracobrachialis and short head of biceps
how does the tedon of the long head of biceps brachii reach the supraglenoid tubercel of the scapula?
passes superiorly in the intertubercular groove of the humerus and then becomes enclosed within the fibrous layer of the shoulder joint capsule to then reach the tubercle
What are the distal attachments of biceps brachii?
biceps tendon which attaches to the radial tuberosity and the bicipital aponeurosis which blends with the deep fascia on the medial side of the proximal forearm
What is the name for the depp fasica on the medial side of hte proximal forearm?
antebrachial
What spinal nerve roots is the musculocutaneous nerve dervied from?
C5 and C6
What is the proximal attacment for coracbrcahialis?
coracoid process of the scapula
What is the distal attachment for coracobrachialis?
middle third of medial surface of humerus
Where is coracobrachialis found in relation to the other muscles of the anterior compartmnet of the arm?
deep to biceps brachiii and medial to brachialais
What seperates coracobrachialis from the triceps muscle/
medial intermuscular septae
What is the proximal attachment for the brachialis muscle?
distal half of anterior surface of humerus
What is the distla attachment for the brachialis muscle?
coronoid process and tuberosity of ulna
What separates brachialis from the triceps muscle??
lateral intermuscular septae
What is the relation of the brachialis muscle to the otehr muslces in the anterior compartment of the arm?
deep to biceps brachii and lateral coracobrachialis
What are the muscles of the anterior comaprtment of the forearm mainly suppleid by?
median nerve
What muscles in the anterior compartment of the forearm arent supplied by the median nerve?
flexor carpi ulnaris and the medial part (to digits 4 and 5) of flexor digitorum profundis
What nerve supplies the part of hte anterior forearm not supplied by the median nerve?
ulnar nerve
what is the proximal atttachment of the superficial layer of the anterior forearm?
common flexor tendon to the medial epicondyle of the humerus
