Muscle Flashcards
Origin of biceps brachii
Short head: coracoid process
Long head: supraglenoid tubercle of scapula
Insertion of biceps brachii
Both muscle bellies join to form a flattened tendon inserted into the radial tuberosity
Innervation of biceps brachii
Musculocutaneous
C5 C6
Coracobrachialis origin
Coracois process of scapula
Insertion of coracobrachialis
Inserts into middle of medial surface and border of the humerus
Innervation of coracobrachialis
Musculocutaneous
C6,C7
Brachialis muscle origin ?
Distal half of the anterior humerus
Insertion of Brachialis muscle?
Tuberosity and anterior surface of the Coronoid process of the ulna
Innervation of the Brachialis muscle?
Musculocutaneous nerve
C5,C6,
Also the radial nerve sends a minor branch to the Brachialis C7
Triceps brachii muscle origin
Long head-infraglenoid tubercle
Lateral head-posterior surface of humerus
Medial head-posterior surface of humerus inferior to radial groove
Triceps brachii insertion
All 3 heads insert by a common tendon into posterior portion of the proximal olecranon of the ulna
Innervation of triceps brachii
Radial nerve C7,C8
Anconeus muscle origin
Lateral epicondyle of the humerus
Anconeus innervation
Radial nerve C7 C8
Anconeus insertion
Lateral aspect of olecranon and into upper dorsal surface of the body of the ulna
