Test 2 random Flashcards
Tricep hiatus
Long head triceps
Lateral head triceps
and superiorly teres major
The quadrangular space borders and what nerve/vessels run through here?
Axillary nerve
Posterior circumflex of the humeral artery
Through the Radial groove runs….
The radial nerve andddddd deep artery of the arm
The notch that the suprascapular nerve runs through?
Scapular notch
Pec major and adjacent deltoid form the narrow ______, in which the ______ vein runs.
Deltopectoral groove
Cephalic vein
What encloses the arm like a tight sleeve?
Brachial fascia
Brachial fascia is continuous superiorly with?
The deltoid, pectoral, axillary and infraspinous fasciae
Cephalic vein
Ascends in the subcutaneous tissue from the lateral aspect of the dorsal venous network, proceeding along the lateral border of the wrist and the anteriorlateral surface of the forearm and arm
Basilic vein
Ascends in the subcutaneous tissue from the medial end of the dorsal venous network along the medial side of the forearm and inferior part of the arm
The musculocutaneous turns into
Lateral cutaneous nerve of the forearm
The radial nerves branches
In the cubital region into…
Deep branch- turns into posterior interosseous nerve
&
Superficial branch- goes snuff box
The median nerve is the …
Principal nerve of the anterior compartment of the forearm. It enters the forearm with the brachial artery and lies medial to it.
Near the wrist the median nerve becomes…
Superficial by passing between the tendons of the FDS and FCR.
Anterior interosseous nerve is a major branch of what nerve?
Median nerve
The brachial artery ends in _________ by dividing into _____
the distal part of the cubital fossa by dividing into the ulnar and radial arteries
The pulsation of the radial artery is usually measured…
On the distal radius between the tendons of flexor carpi radialis and abductor pollicis longus
Distal radio-ulnar joint is a ____
Synovial pivot joint
What is the main uniting structure of the distal radio-ulnar joint?
Fibrocartilaginous articular disc
The proximal surface of this triangular disk articulates with the distal aspect of the head of the ulna
Ligaments of the distal radio ulnar joint
Anterior and superior ligaments strengthen the fibrous layer of the joint capsule . These relatively weak transverse bands extend from the radius to the ulna across the anterior and posterior surfaces of the joint
Distal ru joint
Rounded head of ulna articulates with ulnar notch of medial side of distal radius
Druj
Disc also separates distal ru joint from wrist joint
Synovial membrane extends superiorly between the distal radius and ulna
Functions to transmit loads from hand to forearm
Contents of triceps hiatus?
Deep artery of arm
Radial nerve
