shoulder bones Flashcards
the bones making up the shoulder complex
sternum, scapula, clavicle, humerus (proximal to midpart)
the true joints of shoulder complex
- sternoclavicular joint (sc jt)
- acromioclavicular joint (ac jt)
- glenohumeral joint (gh jt)
false/functional joints of shoulder complex
- scapulothoracic joint (st jt)
- subacromial/suprahumeral joint
- bicipital/intertubercular sulcus
muscles of the shoulder concept (divisions muna)
- muscles connecting UE to thoracic wall
- muscles connecting UE to vertebral column
- muscles connecting scapula to humerus
- muscles of the arm
t shaped vertical bone that forms the anterior portion of the chest wall centrally
sternum
forms part of the bony framework of neck and thorax
manubrium
pair of oval shaped found at manubrium which articulate w clavicle
clavicular facets
located at lateral edge of the manubrium, attachments for first two ribs
costal facets
located at the superior aspect of manubrium between clavicular facets
jugular notch/suprasternal notch
angle formed between the manubrium and body of sternum (manubriosternal junction)
sternal angle/angle of louis
largest part of sternum
body of sternum
the articulation that connects the xiphoid process with the body of the sternum
xiphisternal joint
most inferior and smallest part of sternum. with it’s tip located at t10
xiphoid process
strut or collar bone. the only attachment between trunk and UE. most fractured bone at middle to lateral thirds where the curvature changes)
s shaped bone that lies horizontally in the superior and anterior part of thorax superior to the 1st rib
clavicle
medial 2/3 of clavicle; lateral third
convex; concave
directed medially and a little downwards and forwards, to articulate with clavicular notch of the manubrium
it is usually irregular and pitted, is quadrangular (sometimes triangular)
sternal end of clavicle
broad, flat, lateral end, articulates with acromion of scapula
acromial end
roughned oval impression near the inferior surface, near the sternal end; lies on inferior surface
impression for costoclavicular ligament
shallow depression found on the middle one third of the inferior surface of the clavicle
groove for subclavius muscle
lies on the inferior surface, close to posterior border. attachment of the conoid ligament of the coracoclavicular ligament
conoid tubercle
a narrow, roughened strip. runs forward and laterally from the lateral side of conoid tubercle, almost as far as the acromial end
trapezoid line
significance if sternal end of clavicle
the upper most part is slightly roughened for attachment of interclavicular ligament, sternoclavicular capsule and articular disc
significance of impression for the costoclavicular ligament
costoclavicular ligament connects the clavicle to the upper surface of the first rib and its cartilage
significance of groove for subclavius muscle
attachment for subclavius muscle
significance of conoid tubercle
attachment for conoid part of coracoclavicular ligament
