Q

Clavipectoral fascia

A
  • deep to pectoralis major
  • descends from clavicle
  • encloses subclavius m. and pectoralis minor m.

26
Q

what muscle is most frequently torn in rotator cuff injuries?

A

supraspinatus

27
Q

T or F. Supraspinatus rotates the humerus

A

FALSE.

it does not rotate humerus
-it INITIATES abduction of the arm

28
Q

if you remove the deltoid what muscles will be seen?

A

rotator cuff muscles

29
Q

what is the roll of the rotator cuff muscles?

A

hold humerus into joint
-give great flexibility

-easier to dislocate & injure

30
Q

teres major

A

adducts and medially rotates arm

-similiar function to latissimus dorsi (smaller)

31
Q

latissimus dorsi

A

extends, adducts, and medially rotates humerus at shoulder

32
Q

levator scapulae

A

elevates scapula medially, inferiorly rotates glenoid cavity

33
Q

rhomboids

A

fix scapula to thoracic wall; retract and rotate scapula to depress glenoid cavity

-drop shoulder

34
Q

how many parts is the subclavian artery broken down into?

A

3

35
Q

1st part of subclavian artery

A

VIT

Vertebral artery
Internal thoracic artery
Thyrocervical trunk 
    -inferior thyroid A. 
    -transverse cervical A.
    -suprascapular A.
36
Q

2nd part of subclavian artery

A

costocervical trunk

37
Q

3rd part of subclavian artery

A

dorsal scapular artery

38
Q

what muscle lays on top of subclavian artery?

A

anterior scalene muscle

39
Q

branches of the axillary a. are related to what muscle?

A

pectoralis minor

40
Q

1st part of axillary artery

A

Superior thoracic artery

41
Q

2nd part of axillary artery

A

thoracoacromial artery

lateral thoracic artery

42
Q

where does the lateral thoracic artery run to?

A

runs down to lateral portion of chest to supply blood to breast

43
Q

3rd part of axillary artery

A
  • subscapular (cicumflex scapular & thoracodorsal)
  • anterior cicumflex humeral a.
  • posterior circumflex humeral a.
44
Q

why is there a suprascapular notch?

A

ligament converts notch to a “foramen” because will have a superior transverse scapular ligament

-above the spine of the scapula

45
Q

what are the boundaries of the triangular space?

A
  • (s) teres minor
  • (i) teres major
  • (L) long head of triceps
46
Q

what passes through the triangular space?

A

circumflex scapular artery

47

A

axillary nerve

posterior humeral circumflex artery (wraps around humerus)

49
Q

what are the boundaries of the triangular interval?

A
  • (s) teres major
  • (m) long head of triceps
  • (L) lateral head of triceps
50
Q

what passes through the triangular interval?

A

radial nerve

profunda brachii artery

51
Q

where does the posterior circumflex humeral artery go to?

A

deltoid muscle

52
Q

axilla

A

pyramid-shaped space

  • inferior to glenohumeral joint
  • superior to axillary fascia

-serves as a protected passageway for the neurovascular structures from the neck to the upper limb
axillary A.
brachial plexus
axillary V.

53
Q

why do you want to keep the axilla space open & protected?

A

to prevent pinched nerves

54
Q

what % is tubuloalveorlar glands in the breast?

A

95%

55
Q

how many lactiferous ducts per lobe and sinus?

A

1

56
Q

what % of tumors originate in the duct?

A

80%

57
Q

suspensory ligaments (of Cooper)

A

attach lobes to skin & divide glandular tissue into lobes

58
Q

where are the lactiferous ducts located?

A

at surface of nipple

59
Q

what are the lymph nodes of the breast?

[C.L.A.S.P]

A 
Central nodes
Humeral (lateral) nodes
Apical nodes (below clavicle)
Subscapular (posterior) nodes
Pectoral (anterior) nodes
60
Q

what artery mainly supplies the breast? what cavity does it come from?

A

lateral thoracic artery

-axillary artery

61
Q

internal thoracic artery (internal mammary)

A

-subclavian artery

  • runs internal portion of chest
  • perforating branches that will go through ribs & supply to breast
62
Q

about what % of breast tissue drains medially?

A

20%

63
Q

where does most of the breast tissue drain to?

A

laterally

64
Q

what vein is located underneath the clavicle by the apical nodes?

A

subclavian vein
