16
Q

What deep fascias keep the brachii (biceps/triceps) separate from eachother ant/post (2)?

A

Lateral intermuscular septum

Medial intermuscular septum (on either sides of the humerus)

17
Q

what is in the antebrachium that keeps the anterior muscle (flex) for the posterior (extensor musc)?

A

interosseous membrane (syndesmosis) between ulna and radius

18
Q

What is the difference between the flexor retinaculum (transverse carpal L.) and palmar capral L./extensor retinaculum in the wrist?

A

Palmar capral L & extensor retinaculum (keeps tendons down) are made of antebrachial fascia, and are focal thickening of deep fascia, while flexor retinaculum an actual ligament deeper down

19
Q

What is palmar aponeurosis and retinacula cutis in the hand?

A

Palmar aponeurosis is a focal thickening of skin, commonly a sheet of tendon to strengthen

Retinacula Cutis goes through aponeurosis to strengthen the skin to keep it in place so it is not like our dorsal hand skin
