How many muscles attach to the scapula?
17
During R shoulder flexion, what movements occur in the upper thoracic vertebrae?
- extension
- R rotation
- R sidebending
During R shoulder flexion, what movement occurs in ribs 1 and 2?
depression

elevation
The humeral head is ___x larger than the glenoid fossa
3-4x
The humeral head faces:
medial
posterior
superior
Humeral head: angle of inclination
130˚
Humeral retroversion:

Strength ratios of IR to ER in the shoulder
3 to 2
Women have (%) shoulder strength as men
40-65%

50%
SC joint: degree of mobility
elevation and depression
30˚-40˚
SC joint: degree of mobility
rotation
40˚-50˚ (with ACJ)
SC joint: degree of mobility
Protraction/retraction:
~30˚
This joint is the only true skeletal articulation between the axial skeleton and appendicular upper limb
SC joint
SCJ shape, number of articulations
saddle shaped
diarthrodial jt
ACJ relies on this for support
ligamentous stability
- superior/inferior AC ligaments
- coracoclavicular ligaments (conoid/trapezoid)
ACJ mobility:
elevation and depression
30˚
ACJ mobility:
rotation
40˚-50˚ (with SCJ)
ACJ moves in 3 planes: what are they?
- elevation/depression
- rotation
- protraction/retraction
