Shoulder girdle Arthrology Flashcards
What is the only true attachment to the skeleton from the shoulder girdle complex?
The Sternoclavicular Joint
Name shoulder girdle joints
AC joint, Scapulothoracic joint, glenohumeral joint, subacromial space, sternoclavicular joint.
Of all the 5 shoulder girdle joints which is not a synovial joint ?
Scapulothoracic joint
Where does the second rib attach to?
The sternal angle
Where does the 1st rib attach to?
The Manubrium, along with the clavicle.
What does the SC (sternoclavicular joint) composed of?
Manubrium (top part of sternum) & the clavicle.
Name the SC (sternoclavicular) joint ligaments.
Sternoclavicular lig, costoclavicular lig, & interclavicular lig
What is the ligament that is a “bridge” goes along the top rim of the manubrium ?
interclavicular lig
What ligament attaches from 1st rib to clavicle?
Costoclavicular lig
What does the costoclavicular ligament do?
it restricts SUP translation of the clavicle. also limits retraction
What does the sternoclavicular lig do ?
provides stability to entire SC Joint
What does the linterclavicular ligament integrate into
the facia of the neck
What kind of joint is the SC joint?
Sellar joint
What kind of motion does the SC joint do?
gliding and rotation motion
What divides the SC joint into two?
An Articular disc
What kind of joint is the AC (acromioclavicular joint)
Planar (gliding joint)
What are the ligaments of the AC joint?
Acromiclavicular lig & (2) Coracoclavicular lig’s (Conid & trapezoid lig)
which part of the clavicle has an articular disc medial or lateral?
Both do.
Where is the lateral articular disc of the clavicle located?
The acromioclavicular lig.
Where are the (2) Coracoclavicular lig’s in relation to the AC lig?
Medial (on the coracoid)
What motions do we get at the AC joint?
Gliding and rotation.
What ligament(s) is/are important in providing stability to the AC joint to decrease mobility of the AC joint.
The Coracoclavicular lig (both) trapezoid and conoid
What motion/translation happens during Protraction/retraction of scapula?
A-P glides of clavicle ( at AC joint)
What motion/translation of clavicle happens during ABD/ADD of UE?
Rotation of clavicle (try it)
