Q

Ulnar nerve pathway in distal arm

A

leaves medial intermuscular septum and travels to posterior compartment toward cubital tunnel
accompanied by superior ulnar collateral branch of brachial artery

17
Q

Which artery does the ulnar nerve follow through the distal arm

A

Superior ulnar collateral branch of the brachial artery

18
Q

Axillary A –> Brachial A transition

A

changes names at the inferior border of teres major

19
Q

Triangular interval contents

A
  • Profunda brachii artery (deep brachial)

- Radial Nerve

20
Q

Branches of the brachial artery

A

Profunda Brachial Artery (1st branch)
Superior Ulnar Collateral Artery
Inferior Ulnar Collateral Artery

21
Q

Inferior ulnar collateral artery pathway

A
  • passes anterior to the elbow
22
Q

lateral boundary of the cubital fossa

A

brachiradialis

23
Q

medial boundary of the cubital fossa

A

pronator teres

24
Q

superior boundary of cubital fossa

A

epicondyle line

25
Q

roof of cubital fossa

A

bicipital aponeurosis

26
Q

floor of cubital fossa

A

brachialis and supinator

27
Q

Order of large structures on the cubital fossa

A

lateral- tendons of biceps brachii
intermediate- brachial artery
Medial- median nerve

28
Q

terminal bifurcation of brachial artery

A 
Ulnar artery (medial) 
Radial artery (lateral)
29
Q

Vena comitantes

A

veins in distal limbs are paired
Major functions
1.) heat exchange
2.) arterial venous pump

30
Q

Aponeurosis as barrier

A

provides a barrier to deeper structures (Median N and Brachial A) but allow for puncture of superficial veins

31
Q

Attachment of heads of triceps brachii

A
  • all three heads ( long, lateral, and medial) attach distally to the olecrenon processof the ulna

NOTE: Medial head is found deep to the long head

32
Q

What lies in radial groove of the humerus

A

Radial nerve and profunda brachii artery

33
Q

Bifurcation of profunda brachii

A

occurs near shaft of humerus

  • middle collateral artery
  • Radial collateral artery
34
Q

What artery follows the radial nerve into the intermuscular septum

A

Radial artery (bifurcation of profunda brachii)

35
Q

Point of triangle surrounding anconeus muscle

A
  • lateral epicondyle
  • olecranon process
  • 3 inches down exposed ulnar shaft
36
Q

Which ligament is the most lateral in attaching the coracoid process and the clavicle?

A

Trapezoid ligament

37
Q

which two muscles originate from the coracoid process

A
