Shoulder region Flashcards
supraspinous n and a pass through which two notches on the posterior scapula
supraspinous notch, spinoglenoid notch because it has to go around the spine
What does the inferior side of the clavicle look like compared the the superior side
superior is much more smooth. less articulations
conjoint tendon
short head of the biceps and coracobrachialis
Thyrocervical trunk gives rise to 3 arteries
Inferior thyroid artery
Suprascapular artery
Transverse cervical artery (ultimately becomes dorsal scapular artery)
When does the subclavian artery become the axillary artery
after the first word
When does Axillary artery become brachial artery
after it passes teres major
What is a good indicator of the separation of rhomboid major/minor
medial angle of the scapula
Two attachments of pectoralis minor
coracoid process of scapula and costochondral joints
Three categories of movement that scapula does
elevation/depression
protraction/retraction
upward rotation/downward rotation
- combination of scapular and glenohumeral joint movement
scapulohumeral rhythm
T or F elevation/depression of the scap can only occur in protraction
F elevation/depression can occur at any time
Rhomboids and serratus anterior are agonist/antagonist muscles for what?
Scap.
r-medial upward rotation
s-lateral upward rotation
Teres major and latissimus dorsi come together ______ to form what looks like a common tendon
on the medial lip of bicipital groove of humerus
Latissimus dorsi attachment lies ______ to the teres major on the bicipital groove

axillary n., posterior circumflex humeral artery
triangular interval
boundaries
contents

radial nerve, deep brachial artery
posterior circumflex humeral artery runs along with
axillary nerve
Which segments form the brachial plexus
C5-T1
Which segment of brachial plexus does not combine
C7
The ventral ramus of spinal nerves C5-T1 create
the roots of the brachial plexus
the three trunks of the brachial plexus divide into
dorsal and ventral divisions
terminology of brachial plexus from medial to distal
Roots>trunks>divisions>cords>branches
posterior cord of b. plexus bifurcates into
axillary and radial nerve
Lateral cord ends as
musculocutaneus nerve
medial cord ends as
ulnar nerve
median nerve is formed by
lateral part of medial cord, medial part of lateral cord?
lateral and medial cords combine to become how many nerves
3
Lateral cord of the b. plexus contains which segments
C5-C7
Medial cord of b. plexus is innervated by which segments
C8-T1
the spine of the scapula divides the dorsal surface into….
supraspinous and infraspinous fossae
what is the spinoglenoid notch
lateral extent or great scapular notch
what is the acromial angle
bend at spinoglenoid notch
from inferior angle to glenoid cavity. Widens superiorly as infraglenoid tubercle
lateral border of scap
from inferior angle to superior angle
medial border
superior angle to suprascapular notch
superior border
what angle overlies 7th intercostal space (rib)
inferior
angle medial to superior border
superior angle
wich angle contains the glenoid cavity
lateral head
described along the medial border at the end of the spine
medial angle
from top of head of scap (lateral to suprascapular notch) points laterally and anteriorly
coracoid process
articulates w/ the manubrium of the sternum and the acromion of the scap.
clavicle
between paired articulations of the clavicles is the
jugular, suprasternal notch
part of clavicle that is flattened
acromial end (flattened for articulation with acromion)
part of clavicle enlarged for articulation with the manubriumof sternum and 1st costal cartilage
sternal end
how is the shaft to the clavicle laid out?
medial 2/3 convex anteriorly, lateral 1/3 concave anteriorly
the head of the humerus articulates with
the glenoid cavity of the scap; glenohumeral joint
what are the greater and lesser tubercles of the head of the humerus separated by
intertubercular groove (sulcus; also known as bicipital groove)
where is the humeral head most likely to break
surgical neck (as apposed to the anatomical neck)
anterolateral bump indicating insertion of deltoid muscle
deltoid tuberosity
