What attaches at the greater tuberosity of humerus?
Supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor
What attaches at lesser tuberosity?
Subscapularis
Superior GH ligament limits which motions?
external rotation and inferior translation of humeral head with arm at the side
Middle GH ligament limits which motions?
External rotation and anterior translations of humeral head with arm in 0 degrees and 45 degrees of abduction
Inferior GH ligament consists of a __ and __ band and an ___ with varying functions
Anterior
Posterior
Axillary pouch
Coracohumeral ligament covers the __ ligament ___, and fills the space beween the tendons of __ and __ muscles, uniting these tendons to complete the rotator cuff in this area.
GH
anterior-superiorly
supraspinatus
subscapularis
Coracoacromial ligament function
Prevents separation of A-C joint surfaces
What forms the coracoacromial arch?
Anterior-inferior sapect of acromion, coracoacromial ligament, inferior surface of AC joint
When is the Suprahumeral/subacromial space at it’s narrowest?
Between 60-120 degrees of scaption
Muscle imbalances or capsular contractures can cause increases in superior translation in __ and narrow the suprahumeral soace, leading to ___.
humeral head
Subacromial impingemet syndrome
Impingement syndrome definition
pain in subacromial space when the humerus is elevated or internally rotated
What are the ranges of the pain arc of abduction (glenohumeral joint)?
from 45-60 degrees to 110-120 degrees
What are the ranges for the acromioclavicular painful arc?
170-180 degrees
Impingement syndrome: During ___ ___ the ___ tendon and __ become entrapped between the __ corner of the ___ and ___.
humeral flexion supraspinatus bursa anteroinferior acromion greater tuberosity
Where is the hypovascular zone of the supraspinatus tendon?
Critical zone just proximal to the supraspinatus insertion point
Once the supraspinatus (and infraspinatus) tendon is disrupted there will often be further impingement and irritation which can lead to __ and further ___
biceps tendonitis
rupture
Impingement Syndrome pain is often worse at ___, as the ___ becomes ___

hyperemic
Subacromial Bursa provides two smooth ___ layers, one of which adheres to the overlying ___ muscle and the other to the ___ beneath.
serosal
deltoid
