Thoracic Limb Flashcards
Site on lateral scapula, for muscle attachment
Spine
Cranial serrated portion of medial scapula, for muscle attachment
Faces serrata
Area under faces serrata, medial
Subscapular fossa
Caudal ventral extension of spine of scapula

Glenoid cavity
The cat acromion
Hamate and suprahamate process
Disease in horses, spine of scapula attached to trunk by muscles instead of joint
Sweeney disease
Proximal extremities humerus
Head, projects caudomedial
Greater tubercle, point of shoulder
Present on shaft of humerus
Deltoid tuberosity
Deltoidious muscle

Dog; supratrochlear foramen, nothing passes through
Cats; supracondylar foramen, brachial artery, medial nerve pass through
Radius
Flat rectangle bone
Weight bearing
Proximal extremity of radius
Head, neck, greater tuberosity
Distal process of radius
Styloid process, medial
Ulna purpose
Non weight bearing, muscle and joint attachment
