What are the names of the forelimb nerves
Suprascapular Subscapular Musclulocutaneous Axillary Medial Radial
Subscapular
Support..
Innervations..
Lateral shoulder support
Supraspinatous muscle
Infraspinatous muscle
Musculocutaneous
Innervations..
Damage..
Motor- brachialis muscle
Biceps brachii
Sensory- cranial and medial aspect of elbow
Medial aspect of antibrachium
Damage- loss of elbow flexion
Axillary
Innervations..
Damage..
Motor- Deltoideus + treres major muscle
Sensory-lateral aspect of shoulder and brachium
Damage-compensation by latissiumus dorsi and long head triceps
Medial
Innervations..
Damage..
Motor- carpal and digital flexors
Sensory-caudal and palmar aspect limb, dorsal aspect 5th digit
Damage- loss of distal limb flexion
Radial
Innervations..
Damage..
Motor- extensors of elbow and extensors of carpus and digits
Sensory-Dorsal and cranial aspect limb, except dorsal aspect 5th digit
Motor damage- proximal can’t extend elbow, can’t weight bear
Distal can’t extend carpus, if triceps intact then can still extend elbow
Brachial plexus..
Damage..
C5 C6 C7 C8 T1 T2
Limb can’t retract/adduct, flex/extend or weight bear
