Gross - Scapular and Pectoral Regions Flashcards
These ligaments helps stabilize the joints between the scapula and clavicle
Acromioclavicular ligament
Coracoclavicular ligament
The coracoclavicular ligament is comprised of these two ligament
Trapezoid ligament
Conoid ligament
The sternoclavicular joint is this type of joint
Synovial
Joint between the scapula and humerus
Glenohumeral joint
Outpocketing of the synovial membrane outside the joint capsule
Bursa
What is the function of the bursa
To protect the pathway of the tendon
Long head of the biceps brachii runs in this area
