Lecture 11: Brachium And Elbow Flashcards
What muscles extend the arm
Supraspinatus
Triceps brachii (long head)
Brachiocephalicus
What muscles flex the arm (delta takes little planes)
- deltoideus
- teres major
- teres minor
- latissimus dorsi
- pectoralis profundus
What muscle abduct the arm
Infraspinatus
What muscles adduct the arm
- pectoral muscles
- subscapularis
- coracobrachialis
What are the 3 joints of the elbow
Radio-humeral joint
Ulno-humeral joint
Proximal radio-ulnar joint
What ligaments support the elbow
Lateral collateral
Medial collateral
Annular ligament of radius
Oblique ligament
What ligament of the elbow prevents over-extension of the elbow
Oblique ligament
What ligaments of the elbow prevent excessive abduction and adduction of the radius and ulna relative to the humerus
Collateral ligaments
What joints of the elbow permit the flexion/extension along a sagittal plane
Radio-humeral joint
Ulno-humeral joint
What ligament of the elbow allows for pronation/supination of the distal radius
Annular ligament of the radius
What are the flexor muscles of the arm that act at the elbow
Biceps brachii
Brachialis
What artery supplies the flexor compartment muscles of the arm
Brachial artery
What nerve innervates the flexor muscles of the arm
Musculocutaneous
What are the extensor muscles of the arm that act on the elbow
triceps brachii
tensor fascia antebrachi
anconeus
What artery supplies the extensor muscles of the arm
Deep brachial artery
What nerve innervates the extensor muscles of the arm
Radial nerve
Origin of the long head of triceps brachii (1)
Infaglenoid tubercle and caudal edge of scapula
Origin of the lateral head of Cicero’s brachii (2)
B/w the tuberosity for the teres minor and the deltoid tuberosity
