25
between acromion process of scapula and acromion end of clavicle
acromioclabicular joint
26
between glenoid cavity of scapula and head of humerus
glendohumeal joint
27
- extends from shoulder to elbow - largest bone in upper limb
humerus location
28
assists in gross movements and stabilization of the shoulder joint
humerus function
29
articulates with glenoid cavity
humerus head
30
"origin" biceps tendon and insertion point for latissimus dorsi, teres major, pectoralis major
interubercular groove
31
next to head before tubercles
anatomic head of humerus
32
inferior to tubercles
surgical head of humerus
33
medial epicondyle makes groove for:
ulnar nerve
34
humeral head and glenoid cavity of scapula
glenohumeral joint
35
humeroradial joint ligament
radial collateral ligament
36
humeroradial fibers blend with
anular ligament
37
humeroulnar ligament
ulnar collateral ligaments
38
runs from proximal aspect of ulna to distal humerus
ulnar collateral ligament
39
surgical neck in contact with
axillary nerve
40
radial groove in contact with
radial nerve
41
distal humerus in contact with
musculocutaneus nerve and median nerve
42
medial epicondyle in contact with
ulnar nerve
43
medial bone of forearm
ulna location
44
1. stabilizes forearm 2. allows movement of arm, hand and wrist
ulna functions
45
insertion of brachialis
ulnar tuberosity
46
lateral bone of forearm
radius location
47
1. provides supination / pronation 2. provides movements at wrist
radius function
48
fovea of head and capitulum of humerus
humeroradial articulation
49
- interosseous membrane - syndesmosis - fibers run obliquely from radius to ulna - forces received by radius from hand transmitted to ulna to humerus
