Myology 1.2. neck and trunk Flashcards
cutaneous muscle of the trunk
musculus cutaneus trunci
covers lateral part of trunk caudal to shoulder and arm;
fibres running in a caudodorsal direction;
attached to dermis and is involved in the panniculus reflex
platysma
same in latin
in carnivores and pigs,
well-developed muscular sheet, radiates from the lower facial cutaneous muscle to clavicle area.
well-developed in carnivores and pigs, tenses and moves skin on dorsal and lateral side of neck
cervical cutaneous muscle
m. cutaneus colli: on the ventral aspect of the neck in Un

Brachiocephalic muscle
m. brachiocephalicus
O: Clavicular tendon and the distal end of the cranial surface of the humerus.
I: Dorsal surface of the neck.
F: Bilateral fixation of the neck.
Omotransverse muscle
m. omotransversarius
O: Wing of atlas or transverse process of 2nd cervical vertebra
I: Distal end of spine of scapula
F: Draws neck downward and sidewards; draws scapula forward
Sternocephalic muscle
m. sternocephalicus
(in ru: sternomandibular and sternomastoid muscles)
(in eq: only sternocephalicus -> sternomandibular)
O: manubrium sterni
I: depending on specie/muscle: Mastoid part of the temporal bone and to the dorsal nuchal line of the occipital bone or mandible.
F: To draw the head and neck to one side.
Long muscle of the neck
m. longus colli
O: 5th to 6th thor.vert.
I: 1st cervical vertebra
F: Flexes the neck
Scalene muscles
mm. scaleni
(m. scalenus: ventralis, medius et dorsalis)
dorsalis absent in eq
→ventralis:
O: 1st rib
I: 7th cervical vertebra
F: Same for all, fixes the neck, draws neck downwards and bends it side-ways; supports inspiration
→medius
O: 1st rib
I: Transverse processes of the 7th-3rd cerv.vert.
→dorsalis: absent in (eq). Originates from 4th or 5th rib in ruminants. With two heads from 3rd to 5th or from 9th to 8 ribs in carnivores.
O: 3rd to 8th ribs
I: Transverse processes of 6th to 3rd cerv.vert.

m. sternothyreoideus
O: on sternohyoideus
I: thyroid cartilage
F: pulls hyoid and larynx
Omohyoid muscle
m. omohyoideus
Most developed in (eq).
O: subscapular fascia close to shoulder joint in (eq) and from deep fascia of neck in ru

mm. dorsi are further divided into what 2 groups
superficial and deep muscle groups
Name mm. dorsi 3 superficial muscles
