OS 203 2 Shoulder and Arm - Sheet1 Flashcards
5 joints of pectoral girdle
vertebrocostal, costosternal, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular, glenohumeral
2 articulations of pectoral girdle
subacromial, scapulothoracic
least movement among the joints of the girdle
vertebrocostal, costosternal, sternoclavicular, acromioclavicular, glenohumeral
sternoclavicular - mobility
greeeat
costosternal - mobility

what is the glenoid labrum
cartilage surrounding the rim of the glenoid fossa
glenoid labrum deepens the fossa by _ and increases depth by _
deepens by 2.5 mm, increases depth by 100%
reduces glenoid depth by 50%
anterior labral detachment
which among the anterior (superior, middle, inferior) ligaments is the strongest
middle
which among the anterior (superior, middle, inferior) ligaments is the weakest
inferior
rotator cuff synergism
supraspinatus-teres minor; subscapularis-antagonist-infraspinatus
supraspinatus vector
up
infraspinatus vector

glenohumeral abduction:scapulothoracic articulation
2 is to 1 (for every 2 deg glenohumeral abduction, 1 deg scapulothoracic articulation)
components of the intricate collateral system
circumflex scapular artery, circumflex humeral artery
supplies blood to the dorsum of scapula
circumflex scapular artery (also anastomoses around scapula)
encircles surgical neck of humerus, anastomosing w each other
circumflex humeral artery
anterior & posterior circumflex humeral artery: size, supplies blood to where
anterior - smaller; supplies to the shoulder… posterior - larger, glenohumeral jt and surrounding muscles
quadrangular space artery and innervation
posterior circumflex artery, axillary nerve
triangular interval - artery and innervation
profunda brachii, radial nerve
triangular space - artery and nerve
circumflex scapular artery (no nerve)
xray: humerus superimposed with glenoid fossa (4)
anterior labrum detachment, torn capsule, long head of biceps attenuated, subscapularis muscles destroyed
what happens when dislocation occurs
muscles will contract (sudden pain), 6-8 wks before healing
longest bone in the body (and 2nd longest)
femur, humerus
head articulates w
glenoid fossa
anatomical neck, what’s attached?
glenohumeral joint capsule
