Q

Winging of scapula

A

Paralysis of serratus anterior or injury to long thoracic nerve causes scapula to wing away from thoracic wall
Makes ABducting upper limb difficult

18
Q

Which muscle in the rotator cuff is most commonly injured?

A

Supraspinatus

19
Q

What is the purpose of the rotator cuff?

A

Stabilize glenohumeral joint! Keep humeral head in the glenoid cavity

20
Q

What are the muscles in the anterior compartment of the brachium?

A

Coracobrachialis, brachialis, biceps brachii (long and short head)

21
Q

Origin, insertion, innervation and action of coracobrachialis

A

O: coracoid process
I: Medial aspect in the middle of the humerus
IN: Musculocutaneous nerve
Action: Flex humerus (arm) and ADduct

22
Q

Origin, insertion, innervation and action of brachialis

A

O: Distal humeral body
I: Coronoid process of ulna and ulnar tuberosity
IN: Musculocutaneous nerve
Action: Flex forearm

23
Q

What are the heads of the biceps brachii and what are their origins?

A

Long head - O = Supraglenoid tubercle

Short head - O = Coracoid process

24
Q

Insertion, innervation and action of biceps brachii

A

I: Radial tuberosity and antebrachial fasica via bicipital aponeurosis
IN: Musculocutaneous nerve
Action: Flex humerus, flex supine forearm, supinate forearm
(short head can resist shoulder dislocation)

25
Q

How do you elicit the bicipital myotactic reflex and what happens?

A

Place thumb over bicipital tendon and strike it with reflex hammer - forearm should flex slightly

26
Q

What is the bicipital myotactic reflex testing?

A

Musculocutaneous nerve or C5/C6 anterior rami

27
Q

What is biceps tendinitis?

A

Repetitive movement of the tendon of long head biceps brachii within the intertubercular groove can make it susceptible to inflammation or crepitus

28
Q

What is crepitus

A

Crackling sound

29
Q

What is a popeye deformity?

A

When the tendon of long head biceps brachii dislocates from the intertubercular groove or even separates completely from the supraglenoid tubercle;
causes the muscle to BALL UP in the middle of the arm!!

30
Q

What are the posterior compartment muscles in the brachium?

A

Triceps brachii and anconeus

31
Q

Origin, insertion, innervation and action of anconeus

A

O: Lateral humeral epicondyle
I: Lateral aspect of olecranon
IN: Radial nerve
Action: Extend forearm and stabilize elbow joint

32
Q

What are the three heads of the triceps brachii?

A

Long head, lateral head, medial head

33
Q

Origin of long head triceps brachii

A

Infraglenoid tubercle

34
Q

Origin of lateral head triceps brachii

A

Posterior humerus superior to radial groove

35
Q

Origin of medial head triceps brachii

A

Posterior humerus inferior to radial groove

36
Q

Insertion, innervation, action of triceps brachii

A

I: Olecranon
IN: Radial nerve
Action: extend forearm (long head - resists shoulder dislocation)

37
Q

What muscles resist shoulder dislocation in the brachial muscles?

A

Short head of biceps brachii and long head of triceps brachii

38
Q

What muscles make up the triangular space?

A

Teres minor, teres major, long head triceps brachii

39
Q

What is housed in the triangular space?

A

Circumflex scapular A. and V.

40
Q

What muscles make up the quadrangular space?

A

Teres minor, teres major, long head and lateral head of triceps brachii

41
Q

What is housed in the quadrangular space?

A

Posterior humeral circumflex A. and V. and axillary nerve

42
Q

What muscles make up the triangular interval?

A

Teres major, long head and lateral head of triceps brachii

43
Q

What is housed in the triangular interval?
