shoulder ligaments Flashcards
what are the intrinsic ligaments of the shoulder
-superior, middle, inferior glenohumeral ligs
-transverse humeral lig
-coracohumeral lig
superior GH lig function
prevent humeral translation anteriorly
middle GH lig function
prevent humeral translation anteriorly and external rotation
inferior GH lig function
prevents humeral translation inferiorly
transverse humeral lig function
keeps biceps tendon tethered to intertubecular groove
coracohumeral lig function
prevent superior humeral translation
coracoacromial lig function
limits superior translation of humerus on scapula
how is the posterior aspect of the shoulder stabilized
muscles - no ligaments
acromioclavicular lig function
keeps clavicle and acromion together - prevents separation of joint
coracoclavicular lig portions and function
trapeziod portion, conoid portion
-prevent lateral side of clavicle form dislocating superiorly
posterior sternoclavicular lig function
prevent posterior displacement of clavicle
anterior sternoclavicular lig function
prevents anterior displacement of clavicle
interclavicular lig function
resist superior movement of clavicle
costalclavicular lig function
resist superior movement of clavicle
