Q

brachial plexus

A

supplires upper limb. formed of ventral rami of spinal nerves C5-T1

3 trunks (Upper, Mid, Lower) which divide into
anterior and posterior divisions

Divisions come together to form Cords:
Lateral (union of anterior divisionsof upper and middle trunks)
Posterior Cord (union of posterior divisions)
and Medial Cord

cords become branches
*Musculocutaneous Branch: from lateral cord. anterior arm muscles and lateral skin of forearm

*Radial Nerve (largest): from posterior corf. Muscles of posterior arm and forearm. Skin of back of arm, forearm, hand (largest sensory)

*UInar Nerve: frommedial cord
Muscles of hand. skin of medial 1/3 of hand (palm, back, medial 1.5 fingers). fine movement

*Median Nerve:from median and lateral cord. Motor supply to most muscles of anterior forearm and muscles of hand. sensory to lateral 2/3 of palm of hand and lateral 3.5 fingers

18
Q

lumbar plexus

A

formed by ventral rami of spinal nerves L1-L4. innervate muscle and skin of lower limb

Lateral Femoral Posterior division *sensory to skin on lateral side of thigh

Femoral Posterior division *supplies all muscles of anterior thigh. sensory to parts of thigh skin and medial side of leg

Obturator anterior division * muscles to medial muscles of thigh
Sensory to medial skin of thigh

19
Q

sacral plexus

A

formed by union of ventral rami of spinal merves L4-S4 in front of posterior pelvic wall. unites to form lumbosacral trunk that contibures to sacral plexus. supply majority of muscles and skin of lower limb

20
Q

coccygeal plexus

A

formed by ventral rami of spinal nerves S5 and Co, and minor contribution rfom S4. located above pelvic floor and supplies part of pelvic floor muscularture btw tip of coccyx and anus

21
Q

what is a plexus

A

nerve network formed by ventral rami of spinal nerves

22
Q

what type of fibres to dorsal rami carry? ventral rami?

A

both carry mixed (sensory and motor)

23
Q

where does the dorsal ramus extent to

A

back muscles and skin covering back muscles

24
Q

what are the 4 major plexi of ventral root

A

Cervical (C1-C4)
Brachial (C5-T1)
Lumbar (L1-L4)
Saccral (L4-C0)

25
Q

what plexi are in the thoracic region

A

NONE> because of ribs
instead there are intercostal nerves which are ventral rami of thoracic spinal nerves

26
Q

Median Branch

A

Brachial plexus

*Median Nerve:from median and lateral cord. Motor supply to most muscles of anterior forearm and muscles of hand. sensory to lateral 2/3 of palm of hand and lateral 3.5 fingers

27
Q

Ulnar Branch

A

Brachial plexus

*UInar Nerve: frommedial cord
Muscles of hand. skin of medial 1/3 of hand (palm, back, medial 1.5 fingers). fine movement

28
Q

Radial Branch

A

Brachial plexus

*Radial Nerve (largest): from posterior corf. Muscles of posterior arm and forearm. Skin of back of arm, forearm, hand (largest sensory

29
Q

Musculocutaneous Branch

A

Brachial plexus

*Musculocutaneous Branch: from lateral cord. anterior arm muscles and lateral skin of forearm

30
Q

obturator plexus

A

Obturator anterior division * muscles to medial muscles of thigh
Sensory to medial skin of thigh

31
Q

femoral plexus

A

Femoral Posterior division *supplies all muscles of anterior thigh. sensory to parts of thigh skin and medial side of leg

32
Q

Lateral Femoral plexus

A

Lateral Femoral Posterior division *sensory to skin on lateral side of thigh

33
Q

components of sacral plexus

A

Superior gluteal
Inferior gluteal
Sciatic (common fibular and tibial)
Pudendal

34
Q

Superior and inferior gluteal branches

A

part of sacral plexus
supply gluteal muscles

35
Q

sciatic branch

A

part of sacral plexus

  1. Tibial- muscles of back of thigh and leg and all muscles of plantar foot
    skin of back f leg and plantar foot
36
Q

Pudendal Branch

A

sacral plexus

sensory to skin of external genitalia
muscles of pelvic floor (perineal)

37
Q
A
  1. Cervical Plexus
  2. Brachial Plexus
    3> Intercostal Nerves
  3. Lumbar Plexus
  4. Sacral Plexus
38
Q

which plexus is this? label the branches

A

top: cutaneous (sensory skin of neck,head)
mid: ansa cervicalis (motor infrahyoid muscles)
bottom: phrenic (motor, diaphragm)

CERVICAL= CAP
