A

Subscapular fossa (anterior most part of scapula directly against ribs)

22
Q

Subscapularis Insertion

A

Lesser tubercle of humerus

23
Q

Subscapularis Innervation

A

Upper and lower subscapular nerves

24
Q

Subscapularis Action

A

1) medially rotates arm

2) acts as RCM

25
Q

Subscapularis Blood Supply

A

Subscapular artery

26
Q

Trapezius Origin

A

1) Nuchal line
2) Nuchal ligament
3) exterior occiptal protuberance
4) T7-T12 spinous processes

27
Q

Trapezius Insertion

A

1) spine of scapula
2) acromion
3) lateral 3rd of clavicle

28
Q

Trapezius Innervation

A

Cranial Nerve 11 (spinal accessory nerve)

29
Q

Trapezius Action

A

1) Ascending fibers: Depress scapula (lower shoulder)
2) Middle fibers: Retract scapula (pull it posteriorly)
3) Descending fibers: elevate scapula
4) Rotates scapula superiorly (with serratus anterior)
* *Descending and ascending act together to rotate glenoid cavity superiorly

30
Q

33
Q

Latissimus Dorsi Innervation

A

Thoracodorsal nerve

34
Q

Latissimus Dorsi Action

A

1) Extends arm
2) Medially rotate arm/humerus
3) Propel body upwards while climbing
4) Adducts arm (with trapezius)

35
Q

Latissimus Dorsi Blood Supply

A

Thoracodorsal artery

36
Q

Rhomboid Major and Rhomboid Minor Origin

A

Major: spinous processes of T2-T5
Minor: spinous processes of C7 and T1 vertebrae (and Nuchal ligament)

37
Q

Rhomboid Major and Rhomboid Minor Insertion

A

Medial border of scapula
