The subacromial bursa, subdeltoid bursa, and asubcoracoid bursa may communicate with each other, but not with the synovial cavity of the glenohumeral joint.

A

True

17
Q

What can cause impingement syndrome of the shoulder?

A
  • supraspinatus tendon (tendonitis)
  • can involve subacromial bursa (bursitis)
18

19
Q

Fill in the Blank:

Scapulohumeral muscles _____ on the scapula and _____ to the humerus.

A

originate; attach

20
Q

What are the muscles that attach the scapula to the humerus called?

A

scapulohumeral muscles

21
Q

What is the proximal/distal attachment, actions, innervation, and blood supply to the deltoid?

A

Proximal Attachment:

  • lateral 1/3 of clavicle
  • acromion of scapula
  • spine of scapula

Distal Attachment:

  • deltoid tuberosity of humerus

Actions:

  • flexes humerus
  • medially rotates humerus
  • abducts humerus
  • extends humerus
  • laterally rotates humerus

Innervation:

  • axillary nerve

Blood Supply:

  • posterior circumflex humeral artery
  • thoracoacromial artery (branches from axillary artery)
22
Q

Which division of the brachial plexus does the axillary nerve come off of?

A

posterior division of brachial plexus

23
Q

What is the proximal/distal attachment, actions, innervation, and blood supply of the teres major muscle?

A

Proximal Attachment

  • posterior surface of inferior angle of scapula

Distal Attachment:

  • medial lip of intertubercular (bicipital) groove of humerus

Actions:

  • adducts humerus
  • medially rotates humerus

Innervation:

  • lower subscapular nerve

Blood Supply:

  • subscapular artery
  • circumflex scapular arteries
24
Q

Which division of the brachial plexus does the lower subscapular nerve arise from?

A

Posterior Division

25
Q

What is the proximal/distal attachments, actions, innervation, and blood supply to the supraspinatus?

A

Proximal Attachment:

  • supraspinous fossa of scapula

Distal Attachment:

  • superior facet of greater tubercle of humerus

Actions:

  • works with deloid in abduction of humerus
  • acts with other rotator cuff muscles in stabilizing shoulder joint

Innervation:

  • suprascapular nerve

Blood Supply:

  • Suprascapular artery
26
Q

Which division of the brachial plexus does the suprascapular nerve arise?

A

anterior division

27
Q

What is the proximal/distal attachments, actions, innervation, and blood supply of the subscapularis?

A

Proximal Attachment:

  • subscapular fossa (anterior surface of scapula)

Distal Attachment:

  • lesser tubercle of humerus

Actions:

  • medially rotates humerus
  • adducts humerus
  • helps hold humeral head in place

Innervation:

  • upper subscapular nerve
  • lower subscapular nerve

Blood Supply:

  • subscapular artery
28
Q

Which division off of the brachial plexus does the upper and lower subscapular nerves arise?

A

posterior division

29
Q

What is the proximal/distal attachments, actions, innervation, and blood supply of the infraspinatus muscle?

A

Proximal Attachment:

  • infraspinous fossa of scapula

Distal Attachment:

  • middle facet of greater tubercle of humerus

Actions:

  • laterally rotates humerus
  • helps hold humeral head in place

Innervation:

  • suprascapular nerve

Blood Supply:

  • suprascapular artery
  • circumflex scapular artery
30
Q

Which rotator cuff muscles is the largest and strongest?

A

Subscapularis

31
Q

What can subscarpularis injuries lead to?

A

Bicipital tendon instability and biceps tendonitis (because of tranverse humeral ligament).

32
Q

Which division of the brachial plexus does the suprascapular nerve arise from?

A

anterior division

33
Q

What is the proximal/distal attachments, actions, innervation, and blood supply of the teres minor muscle?

A

Proximal Attachment:

  • middle part of lateral border of scapula

Distal Attachment:

  • inferior facet of greater tubercle of humerus

Actions:

  • laterally rotates humerus
  • helps hold humeral head in place

Innervation:

  • axillary nerve

Blood Supply:

  • subscapular artery
  • circumflex scapular artery
34
Q

What are the 4 named spaces and triangles of the superficial back (posterior axio-appendicular) and scapular regions (scapulohumeral)?

A
  1. triangle of auscultation
  2. quadrangular space
  3. triangular space
  4. triangular interval
35
Q

What is important about the trangle of auscultation?

A

Physician can listen for breath sounds because there’s less tissue in the way in the triangle of auscultation.

36
Q

What nerve and artery are found in the quadrangular space?

A
  • axillary nerve
  • posterior circumflex humeral artery
37
Q

What artery is found in the triangular space?

A
