Pectoral girdle and shoulder 1 Flashcards
what are the 3 bony projections on the scapula
coracoid process
acromion
spine of scapula
what are the 4 muscles of the rotator cuff
subscapularis
infraspinatus
supraspinatus
teres minor
where does subscapularis originate
subscapular fossa on anterior surface of scapula
where does infraspinatus originate
infraspinous fossa on posterior surface of scapula
where does supraspinatus originate
supraspinous fossa on posterior surface of scapula
which surface of the scapula does teres minor originate from
posterior
what muscle inserts onto the anterior surface of the medial border of the scapula
serratus anterior
what muscle inserts onto the posterior surface of the medial border of the scapula
rhomboid muscles and levator scapulae
what are the rules for the upper limb for the movement of a joint in terms of muscles and tendons passing over the joint
if a muscle or its tendon…
- crosses anterior surface of joint: flex
- crosses posterior surface of joint: extend
- medial surface of joint: adduct
- lateral surface of joint: abduct
(note: not all movements will be possible at all joints)
what creates the bicipital groove
tendon of long head of biceps brachii
where do the rotator cuff muscles insert on the humerus
all insert onto greater tubercle except subscapularis which inserts into lesser tubercle
where does subscapularis insert
lesser tubercle of humerus
where does supraspinatus insert
greater tubercle of humerus
where does infraspinatus insert
greater tubercle of humerus
where does teres minor insert
greater tubercle of humerus
what muscles attach to the inferior surface of the clavicle
subclavius
pec major
deltoid
what muscles attach to the superior surface of the clavicle
trapezius
deltoid
sternocleidomastoid
pec major
describe the structure of the glenohumeral joint
synovial ball and socket joint (therefore surrounded by a capsule)
capsule is reinforced by ligaments to help prevent dislocation of joint
the glenohumeral ligaments pass where
from lesser tubercle of the humerus to the edges of the glenoid cavity
the coracohumeral ligament passes where
from the greater tubercle of the humerus to the coracoid process of the scapula
the synovial lining of the glenohumeral joint extends away from the joint as what
bursae
what is a bursae
synovial pocket that may or may not be in communication with the joint
where is there a bursae in the shoulder
around the proximal part of the tendon of the long head of the biceps as it passes through the bicipital groove
how is the tendon of the long head of the biceps held within the bicipital groove
small transverse humeral ligament
what is the only bony link between the body and the upper limb
the clavicle which passes between the sternum and the scapula
name the ligaments of the clavicle
- acromioclavicular ligament
- coracoacromial ligament
- coracoclavicular ligament
- A and P sternoclavicular ligaments
- costoclavicular ligament to 1st rib
- interclavicular ligament between clavicles
what are the parts of the coracoclavicular ligament
conoid and trapezoid parts
what do the anterior and posterior sternoclavicular ligaments joint between
manubrium and clavicle
the joint between the manubrium and clavicle is what kind of joint
synovial saddle joint
how are the scapula and the muscles that surround it supplied with blood
anastomosis around the scapula
blood supply for the scapula and the muscles that surround it is from where
branches of the subclavian artery
the right subclavian artery is a branch of what
brachiocephalic trunk
the left subclavian artery is a branch of what
arch of the aorta
the vertebral arteries (branches of the subclavian) unite to form what
basilar artery that supplies the brain
what does the subclavian artery become and at what point
becomes the axillary artery as it emerges from beneath the clavicle and passes over surface of the first rib
branches from what supply the scapula and the proximal humerus
thyrocervical trunk and the axillary artery
the dorsal scapular artery comes from where
the dorsal scapular artery is the deep branch of the transverse cervical artery from the thyrocervical trunk from the subclavian artery
where does the dorsal scapular artery pass
passes down the medial border of the scapula and anastomoses with branches from the suprascapular artery (from the thyrocervical trunk) and the subscapular artery (from the axillary artery)
the dorsal scapular artery anastomoses with what
branches of the suprascapular artery and branches of the subscapular artery
the suprascapular artery comes from where
thyrocervical trunk
the subscapular artery comes from where
the axillary artery
what supplies the muscles at the lateral border of the scapula
subscapular artery forms the thoracodorsal artery that supplies muscles of the lateral border of the scapula
how many anatomical spaces are assoc. with the muscles attaches to the posterior surface of the scapula and the proximal humerus
2
what are the two spaces that are assoc. with the muscles attaches to the posterior surface of the scapula and the proximal humerus called
quadrangular space
triangular space/hiatus/interval
