35
Q

What kind of joint is the Sternoclavicular Joint? Where does it articulate?

A

Unique Saddle
Medial end of clavicle with manubrium of the sternum
1st Costal cartilage

36
Q

What ligaments are in the Sternoclavicular Joint?

A

Anterior sternoclavicular ligament
Posterior sternoclavicular
Interclavicular ligament
Costoclavicular ligament

37
Q

What kind of motion does the Sternoclavicular Joint allow?

A

Stable but mobile joint
Clavicle move to 60 degree angle with full UE elevation
During elevation with shoulder flexion, clavicle rotates along longitudinal axis
Anterior and posterior motion with protraction and retraction
When all of this occurs together = Circumduction

38
Q

What kind of joint is the Acromioclavicular Joint? Where does it articulate?

A

Plane joint
Acromion process with lateral end of clavicle

39
Q

What structures support the AC joint?

A

articular capsule, superior acromioclavicular ligament, inferior acromioclavicular ligament, coracoclavicular ligaments (conoid and trapezoid) and coracoacromial ligament

40
Q

What is the main supporting structure at the true AC joint? (ligament)

A

the superior and inferior acromioclavicular ligament

41
Q

Why does the coracoacromial ligament attach the acromion of the scapula to the coracoid process of the scapula?

A

Adds support to the glenohumeral joint superiors

42
Q

What kind of movement occurs at the Acromioclavicular Joint?

A

elevation with shoulder flexion and some rotation around longitudinal axis

43
Q

Is the glenohumeral joint more stable or mobile?

A

sacrifices stability for mobility - very mobile

44
Q

Where does the glenohumeral joint articulate? What kind of joint is it?

A

the head of the humerus articulates in the glenoid fossa oof the scapula (ball and socket joint)

45
Q

What structures support the glenohumeral joint?

A

labrum, articular capsule (fibrous capsule, synovial membrane, intertubercular sheath) coracohumeral ligament, glenohumeral ligament, transverse humeral ligament

A

the ribs 3-5 and inserts on the coracoid process

48
Q

where does the pectoralis major originate and insert

A

many origins, inserts on the greater tubericle

49

what nerve innervates pec major

A

the medial and lateral pectoral nerves (part of brachial plexus)

50
Q

what nerve innervates pec minor

A

the medial pectoral nerve

51
Q

what nerve innervates biceps brachii and coracobrachialis

A

musculocutaneus nerve

52
Q

what nerve innervates the serratus anterior

A

the long thoracic nerve

53
Q

explain the pathway of the subclavian to the brachial artery

A

subclavian becomes axillary at the lateral margin of 1st rib
axillary becomes brachial at the inferior margin of teres major

54
Q

what are the three parts of the axillary artery

A

1st- proximal to pec minor
2nd- deep/posterior to pec minor
3rd- distal to pec minor

55
Q

what artery branches off the 1st part of the axillary artery

A

the superior thoracic artery

56
Q

what arteries branch off the 2nd part of the axillary artery

A

thoracoacromial trunk (4 subsections) and lateral thoracic artery

57
Q

what are the branches of the thoracoacromial trunk

A

(2 muscle) pectoral and deltoid, (2 bone) clavicular and acromial)

58
Q

what arteries branch off the 3rd part of the axillary nerve

A

subscapular (2 subsections), anterior humeral circumflex and posterior humeral circumflex

59
