intrinsic muscles of the forelimb Flashcards
what intrinsic muscles are in the lateral scapula and shoulder
deltoideus
infraspinatus
teres minor
supraspinatus
origin of the deltoideus
spine of the scapula and acromion process of the scapula
insertion of the deltoideus
deltoid tuberosity of humerus
innervation of the deltoideus
axillary nerve
function of the deltoideus
flexes the shoulder
origin of the infraspinatus
infraspinous fossa
insertion of the infraspinatus
greater tubercle of humerus
innervation of the infraspinatus
suprascapular
action of the infraspinatus
extends and flexes the shoulder
origin of the teres minor
infraglenoid tubercle and distal third of the caudal border of the scapula
insertion of the teres minor
teres minor tuberosity of the humerus
innervation of the teres minor
axillary nerve
function of the teres minor
flexes the shoulder also rotate shoulder laterally and prevent medial rotation during weight bearing
origin of the supraspinatus
supraspinous fossa
insertion of the supraspinatus
greater tubercle of the humerus via the thick tendon
innervation of the supraspinatus
suprascapular nerve
function of the supraspinatus
extends and stabilizes shoulder
what are the muscles in the medial scapula and shoulder
subscapularis
teres major
coracobrachialis
origin of the subscapularis
subscapular fossa of the scapula
insertion of the subscapularis
lesser tubercle of the humerus
innervation of the subscapularis
axillary and subscapular
function of the subscapularis
extends, adducts and medially stabilizes the shoulder
origin of the teres major
caudal border and angle of the scapula
insertion of the teres major
teres major tuberosity of the humerus
innervation of the teres major
axillary
function of the teres major
flexes the shoulder, allows medial rotation and prevents lateral rotation of the shoulder
origin of the coracobrachialis
coracoid process of the scapula
insertion of the coracobrachialis
lesser tubercle of the humerus
innervation of the coracobrachialis
musculotcutaneous nerve
function of the coracobrachialis
extends shoulder and adducts limb and stabilises the shoulder.

insertion of the long head of the triceps brachii
olecranon tuber
innervation of the long head of the triceps brachii
radial n
function of the long head of the triceps brachii
