limb bones Flashcards
looking at lateral side of scapula; the angle of caudal side is called the
caudal angle
the middle sticky up part on later side of scapula is the
spine
on either side of the spine of scapula (on lateral side) on the cranial side is the _______ and on the caudal side is the _______
supraspinous fossa
infraspinous fossa
at the bottom (ventral) aspect of the spine of scapula is the
acromion
the most ventral aspect of spine where the head of humerus fits is called the
glenoid cavity
immediately cranial to the glenoid cavity is the _____ and immediately caudal to the glenoid cavity is the ____
supraglenoid tubercle and infraglenoid tubercle
the dorsal top third of the medial side of scapula is a roughened area called the
fascies serrata
on the medial side of the scapula theres a groove down the middle, just under the fascies serrata, called the
subscapular fossa
just medial to the supraglenoid tubercle on scapula there is a small protrudence of bone called the
coracoid process
on the proximal end of humerus theres 3 main bumps;
the most cranial is the:
the most caudal is the:
and the most medial is the:
greater tubercle
head
lesser tubercle
the groove between the lesser tubercle and greater tubercle on the humerus is the
intertubercular groove
on the proximal end of the humerus on there is a line going down on the lateral side, just under the greater tubercle, what is this line called
tricipital line
just cranial to the tricipital line on the humerus there is a roughened area called
(on the proximal, cranio-lateral aspect of bone under the greater tubercle)
the deltoid tuberosity
on the medial side of the humerus under the lesser tubercle there is a small button like projection called the
teres tuberosity
the twist of the humerus that starts on the proximal end at the caudal- lateral aspect and twists the the cranial- lateral aspect at the distal end is called (very smooth surface)
brachial groove
on the distal end of the humerus there are two buttons of bone on either side of the trochlea, what are these called
medial epicondyle and lateral epicondyle
the articular surface on the distal end of the humerus on the cranial side is called the (it articulates with the ulna)
trochlea
what is the hole on the distal end of the humerus thats just above the trochlear is called
supra-trochlear foramen
on the lateral side of the trochlear there is a little ridge called the
its articulates with the radius
capitulum (kind of part of the trochlea, basically the most lateral bump of it)
so from lateral to medial at the distal end of the humerus we has the lateral epicondyle, the capitulum, the trochlea, the medial epicondyle
the depression on the CRANIAL side of the humerus that leads down to the supra-trochlear foramen is called the
and on the caudal side its an even deeper groove called the
radial fossa
olecranon fossa
the shallow crests that lead down to the medial/ lateral epicondyle on either side of the distal end of humerus are called the
medial/ lateral epicondylar crest
