MS Bones And Joints Of Shoulder Girdle Flashcards
GH joint articulating surfaces
Glenoid fossa of scapula within the head of the humerus
GH joint classification
Structural: Multi-axial, ball and socket, synovial joint
Functional: Diarthrodial
GH movements permitted
Abduction/adduction
Flexion/extension
Horizontal abduction/adduction
Internal/external rotation
GH ligaments
Capsule
GH ligament
Coracohumeral ligament
Transverse humeral ligament
Coracocrominal ligament
GH bursae and labrum
GH labrum
Subdeltoid bursa
Subocranial bursa
Subscapular bursa
Capsule (GH)
Axillary recess
Lax in adduction, taught in abduction
Glenohumeral ligament
Partially capsular, anterior
Z-shaped with three bands: superior, middle, interior
Limits external rotation and horizontal abduction
Coracohumeral ligament
GH
Extracapsular
2 bands: superior, inferior
Helps support dependent arm against gravity
Transverse humeral ligament
GH
Extracapsular
Anchors long head of biceps tendon within the intertubular sulcus
Coracoacromial ligament
GH
Extracapsular
Band arches over GH joint
Forms portion of roof of subacromial arch
Limits elevation of the humerus/ superior displacement of head of humerus
Contributes to coracoacromial arch
GH labrum
Intracapsular
Lines glenoid fossa to deepen thus increasing congruency
Subdeltoid bursa
GH
Sits between the acromian and proximal humerus and deltoid
Subocranial bursa
GH
Between acromion and supraspinatus tendon
Subscapular bursa
GH
Between glenohumeral ligament/anterior joint capsule and subscapularis tendon
Acromioclavicular joint articulating surfaces
Acromial facet of clavicle
Clavicular facet of acromion (medial acromion)
