Lesson 4 - Appendicular Skeleton I Flashcards
4 main regions of upper limb
Shoulder
Arm
Forearm
Hand
Shoulder bones
Pectoral girdle section
-Clavicle
-Scapula
Arm/forearm bones
Humerus
Radius
Ulna
Hand bones
carpals, metacarpals, phalnages
Metacarpophalageal joints
interphalangeal joints (distal/proximal)
Parts of the scapula ( lateral points)
Supra and infraglenoid tubercles that sit superior and inferior to the gelnoid cavity.
Glenoid cavity articulates with the humorous (ball and socket joint)
Parts of the Clavicle
Acromial End (lateral side)
Shaft (midpoint)
Sternal end (medial side), articles with sternum
Parts of the scapula (boarders and processes)
Boarders: Superior, Medial and Lateral
Coronoid process - projecting beak
Acromion end
Spine of scapula (postier)
Notch/foramen of the scapula
Superscapula notch/foramen. On its own there is a notch in the superior side of the scapula. When ligaments are involved it becomes an opening due to its connective tissue.
Fossa of scapula
Supraspinous fossa (postier + superior)
Infraspinous fossa ( postier + inferier)
Subscapular ( anterior + sub)
Parts of the humerus (head)
head of humerus ( ball and socket joint for scapula)
Greater tubrecle (lateral)
lesser tubercle (medial)
Superior facet
Middle facet
Inferior facet (traffic lights)
Parts of humerus (shaft)
Intertubercular groove
Radial Grove
Medial and Lateral lip of intertubercular groove
deltoid tuberosity
Parts of humerus (base)
Medial/Lateral Epicondyle
Coronoid fossa (anterior)
Olecranon fossa (posterior)
Capitulum and Trochlea
Glenohumeral joint
Synovial type of joint
Articular capsule - surrounds joint
Ligaments - strengthen joint
Synovial membrane - supports joint
Articular cavity - filled fluid space
Radius
Laterally when pronated and medial when supernated
Superior: Head and neck of radius, radial tuberosity (anterior)
Body (shaft)
Inferior: Styloid process (lateral)
Joint:
Humeroraidal, superior, head of radius articulates capitulum of humorous
Interesses membrane of forearm is a connective tissues that connects radius and ulna
Ulna
Laterally when supernated and medial when pronated
Superior: Trochlear notch, Coronoid process, Radial notch, ulnar tuberosity. Olecranon (postier)
Body (shaft)
Inferior: Styloid process (medial)
Joint:
Humeroulnar, superior, head of ulna articulates with trochlea of humorous
Cornoid fossa (humerus) and coronoid process (ulna) meet during flexion
Olecranon fossa (humerus) and olecranon (unla) meet during extension
