Shoulder Flashcards
What is the bony support of the shoulder?
pectoral girdle = clavicle + scapula
What is the arterial supply of the shoulder?
- branches of the axillary art. from the subclavian art.
- pectoral branches of thoracoacromial art.
What is the innervation of the shoulder?
branches of the brachial plexus
What are the branches of the axillary artery? (S.T.L.S.A.)
- superior thoracic art. (1st branch)
- thoracoacromial art. (2nd branch)
- lateral thoracic (2nd branch)
- subscapular (3rd branch)
- ant. and post. humeral circumflex (3rd branch)
What are the branches of the subclavian artery? (V.I.D.C.T.)
- vertebral art.
- internal thoracic art.
- thyrocervical trunk
- costocervical trunk
- dorsal scapular art.
What are the thoracoacromial branches of the axillary artery? (P.A.C.D)
- acromial
- clavicular
- deltoid
- pectoral
Where does the cephalic vein run through between the deltoid and pectoralis major?
deltopectoral groove
What does the thyrocervical trunk of the subclavian art. split into?
suprascapluar and transverse cervical art.
What do the branches of the thoracoacromial art. form?
an anastomosis
What does the subscapular artery split into?
thoracodorsal and circumflex scapular
What are the arteries that supply the post. shoulder?
