Post Arm Flashcards
main vessels and n in post compartment
Deep Brachial artery (and veins)
Radial N
where does the neurovascuar bundle run along and what forms the roof
along radial groove
-lat head will form the roof
lateral epicondylistis is commly called what and can affect what n
tennis elbow
can imping radial n
medial epicondylitis can affect what n
ulnar n
passage of rdial n to lat triangular space
ant to subscap long head of tri teres maj
before entering radial grove what two branches does the radial nerve send off
- post cutaneous n of arm
2. n to long head of triceps brachii
passage of radial n after lat triangular space
descends med to lat then perforates intermuscular septa to move from post to ant where it spilts to two terminal branchess (deep + superfical radial)
what spinal cord seg is tested by tricepps brachii tendon reflex
C7
what piece of anatomy distinguishes the name change bw axillary and brachial a
inf border of teres maj
path of the brachial artery and what does it split into
descends med border of of bicepps and then deviates to midline of distal 1/3 of cubital fossa
here splits into radial and ulnar artery
what does the brachial artery split into on the post aspect
makes branch for deep artery of arm (runs w radial n)
terminal branches of deep artery of arm
medial collateral on post radial collateral (comes back to ant)
