What are the main ligaments of art. humeri and which movements do they inhibit?
Lig. glenohumerale superior:
- External rotation and inferior translation of the humeral head.
Lig. glenohumerale medius:
- Abduction, external rotation and anterior translation of the humeral head.
Lig. glenohumerale inferior:
- Abduction, external rotation and superior and anterior translation of the humeral head
Lig. coracohumeral:
- Anterior fibres: retroflexion
- Posterior: anteflexion
- Both divisions limit inferior and posterior translation of the humeral head.
- Helps to support the weight of the resting arm against gravity.
Lig. transversum humeri
- This ligament serves to keep the tendon of the long head of the biceps in the bicipital groove.
art. humeri - What is the ROM in all directions?
Flexion = 0° to 150°-170°
Extension = 0° to 40°
Adduction = 0 to 20°-40°
Abduction = 0° to 180° Movements past 90° often referred to as elevation
Internal rotation = 95° (Arm behind back)
External rotation = 60°
What does CPP stand for, what does it mean and what is it important for?
Close-packed position.
- Ligaments and capsule under maximum tension.
- Stability
- Important as you can fixate the joint in order to move an adjacent joint.
What is the CPP of the art. humeri
Maximum abduction, external rotation and horizontal extension.
What does MLPP stand for, what does it mean and what is it important for?
Maximum loose-packed position.
- Ligaments and capsule in maximum relaxation.
- Allows for great mobility.
- Important position for examinations and treating the joint (non-specific traction and translation techniques)

What is the ‘Capsular pattern’ describing?
Order of movement limitations in a joint typical to inflammation of the entire joint capsule (arthritis).
Define Osteokinematics?
The movements of bones.
Define Arthrokinematics?
Refers to the movement of joint surfaces.
What is the Convex/Concave rule?
- When changing the angle of the convex (=roll), translation takes place in the opposite direction (=slide)
- When changing the angle of the concave (=swing), translation takes place in the same direction (=glide).
What is the direction of translation of the tibia when the knee flexes?
The direction of translation is dorsal because the tibia is the PM here and swings + slides (translation) towards dorsal.
art. sternoclavicularis - What is the ball (convex)?
Ball differs for each direction:
Protraction/retraction = extremitas sternalis
Elevation/depression = incisura clavicularis
art. sternoclavicularis - What is the socket (concave)?

Stabilising ligaments Lig. acromioclaviculare Lig. coracoclaviculare Lig. conoideum Lig. trapezoideum
What is the normal of the AC joint?
Cranial/Ventral/Medial from the acromium.
What is the capsular pattern of the AC joint?
Maximum range of movements and pain.
AC does not have an actual ball/socket. We therefore assume that the scapula is concave.

What is proteolysis and which protein causes it?
Proteolysis is the breakdown of proteins into smaller polypeptides or amino acids. Matrix metallopeptidase (MMP). *Not relevant to HOK*????
Name the Risk factor for a frozen shoulder?
Diabetes (low grade inflammation - white blood cells disabled) - 5x higher change on FS - 13,4% of the diabetici gets FS - 30% of the people with FS has DM Frozen shoulder in the family Hypothyroidism Genetic Etnicity
What is Hypothyroidism?
Is a disorder of the endocrine system in which the thyroid gland does not produce enough thyroid hormone.
This causes the metabolism to slow down and therefore the suffer gains more weight.
It can cause a number of health problems, such as obesity, JOINT PAIN, infertility and heart disease.
Name and describe the stages of a Frozen shoulder?

> Membrane fibrosa - Dense irregular - Protects and stabilises the joint.
Sub-intima - Loose connective tissue - produces synovial fluid.
Intima.
Frozen shoulder pathophysiology.
Do the following increase or decrease in a FS patient?
> Swelling & contraction capsule (no adhesions)
> Intra-articulair volume.
> Vascularisation.
> Proliferation fibroblasts & myofibroblasts.
> Pro-inflammatoire cytokines (IL & TNF).
> Neuropeptids.
Swelling & contraction capsule (no adhesions) ↑
- ventral/caudal
Intra-articulair volume ↓
- 15-35cc → 5-6cc
Vascularisation ↑
Proliferation fibroblasts & myofibroblasts ↑
Pro-inflammatoire cytokines (IL & TNF) ↑
Neuropeptids (Substance p) ↑
Why does the likely hood of getting osteoarthritis increase after having a Frozen shoulder?
When you have a frozen shoulder the amount of movement you can make is greatly reduced. For the cartilage to remain healthy its needs movement in the synovial joint (sponge effect, picking up nutrients by absorbing fluid). Without movement is degrades and can cause inflammation.
What is Metabolic syndrome and what is the biggest risk factor for developing it?
Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of biological changes including lipid abnormalities, elevated blood insulin levels and an immune response (increased pro-inflammatory cytokines) leading to a chronic low grade inflammatory state.
Being a BRAVO patient.
What is muscle guarding and why is it relevant?
Muscles are limiting the movement.
Muscles can be held in a position of readiness to act much like when the body experiences the stress response (better known as the “fight or flight” syndrome.
What is the effect of anaesthesia on Muscle guarding?
Increase ROM abduction 55° - 110°
Increase ROM exorotation 15° - 40°

List the steps..
Damage -> Macrophages -> Fibroblasts -> Type 3 collagen -> Type 1 collagen.
What does Immobilisation mean for the following structures?
- Bone
- Capsule
- Tendon
- Ligament
- Muscle
- Cartilage
Bone: Osteoclasts more active, bone density goes down. - More calcium in the blood.
Capsule:
- Fibroblasts less active = less collagen.
- Less elastin = lower ROM.
Tendon:
- Tenoblast = build up tendon.
- Ligament = ….
Muscles: Hypotrophy
- Myosin and actin broken down, less sarcomeres.
Cartilage:
- Chondroblasts build up PG’s, GAG’s and collagen.
- Inactivity stops production. Cannot get the ‘sponge effect’, causing blisters.
Glenohumeral-humeral instability symptoms?
Pain Insecure feeling (no control) Fatigue in the shoulder Shifting Radiating pain
Name and decide the three area’s on the Stanmore classification?
1. Traumatic structural • significant trauma • often a Bankart’s defect • usually unilateral • no abnormal muscle patterning
2. Atraumatic • no trauma • structural damage to the articular surfaces • capsular dysfunction • no abnormal muscle patterning • not uncommonly bilateral
- Habitual non-structural (muscle patterning)
• no trauma
• no structural damage to the articular surfaces
• capsular dysfunction
• abnormal muscle patterning
• often bilateral
There is an arrow coming from type one that suggests less trauma.
There is an arrow coming from type three that suggests less muscle patterning.
Which Pathology causes a Loose capsule?
Marfan’s syndrome.
What is a SLAP lesion?
An injury to the glenoid labrum (fibrocartilaginous rim attached around the margin of the glenoid cavity). SLAP is an acronym for “superior labral tear from anterior to posterior”
