what artery supplies posterior muscles?
posterior interosseous artery -> common interosseous a -> ULNAR ARTERY
once the brachial artery enters the cubital fossa it splits into:
radial and ulnar a
what does the ulnar artery split into right away
common interosseous a and ulnar a
what does the common interosseous artery split into
posterior interosseous and anterior interosseous artery
where can you feel your pulse- what artery
radial artery
what artery passes deep to the pronator teres
ulnar artery
what artery parallels brachioradalis muscle
radial artery
what compartment does the post and ant interosseuous arteries stay in
anterior compartment
what nerve passes between pronator teres heads
median nerve
what is the nerve of most** anterior compartments?
median n
what does the median nerve become
anterior interosseous NERVE and recurrent branch of median nerve
where is the ulnar nerve
behind medial epicondyle, between carpal, around elbow
what nerve is funny bone
ulnar
where does the radial nerve enter
enters cubital fossa b/w brachialis and brachioradialis
what does the radial nerve split into
deep radial n (into posterior compartment) and superficial radial n
what does the radial nerve innervate
ALL post. compartment
what is the terminal branch of the radial n
post. interosseous nerve
what does the musculocutaneous n become
once it crosses comers out from biceps -> lateral cutaneous n of forearm
numbness on lateral side of forearm- what nerve damaged
lateral cutaneous n of forearm
numbness in middle posterior forearm - what nerve damaged
post. cutaneous nerve of forearm (radial)
numbness on median side of forearm- what nerve damaged
medial cutaneous n of forearm
radius is thumb or pinky
THUMB! wrist
does radius or ulnar move
RADIUS
3 types of joints in forearm
- fibrous
- synovial
- cartilaginous
forearm joints (3)
- humeroulnar joint
- humeroradial joint
- proximal radioulnar joint
what holds the proximal radioulnar joint in place
held in place via annular ligament, head of radius rotates with this ligament
what does the humeroradial joint do
contributes to hinge, adds stability, carrying angle
humeroulnar joint
what does it do
HINGE JOINT-> flexion/extension. primarily contracts
distal radioulnar joint is held by what. What is its role?
held in place by fibrocartilage articular disc. base of radius pivots around head of ulna.
what does the interosseous membrane connects
the radius and ulna and also separates the anterior from pst. distributes forces transmitted from distal to proximal
what are the two main supinators ms
supinator and biceps brachii
what are the 2 main pronators ms
pronator teres and pronator quadratus
cubital fossa boundaries
SUPERIOR: “line” joining medial and lateral epicondyles
LATERAL: brachioradialis and supinator
MEDIAL: pronator teres and brachialis
medial epicondyle is radius or ulnar side
ulnar side
what nerve innervates brachioradialis
radial nerve. ONLY MS THAT IS A FLEXOR THAT IT INNERVATES since it is in extensor superficial compartment
median cubital vein has an anastamosis b/w what 2 veins
cephalic and basilic v
where you get blood drawm
what is golfers elbow
inflam at median epicondyle
what is tennis elbow
lateral epicondyle inflam
where do extensors originate from
lateral supracondylar ridge or lateral epicondyle of humerus and posterior forearm
what muscles originate from lateral supracondylar ridge
brachioradialis and extensor carpi radialis longus (ECRL)
what is the clinical sig. of the median nerve passing b/w the pronator teres heads?
at risk for compression!! all anterior compartments innervated by this nerve would not work right
ELBOW ANASTAMISIS:
4 of them name
- radial collateral a -> radial recurrent a – DEEP BRACHIAL ARTERY then RADIAL ARTERY
- middle collateral a -> interosseous recurrent – DEEP BRACHIAL ARTERY then ULNAR ARTERY
