A

BASILIC

CEPHALIC

29
Q

AT WHICH POINT DOES THE BASILIC VEIN BECOME DEEP

A

AT THE BOREDER OF TERES MAJOR, IT COMBINES WITH THE BRACHIAL VEINS TO FORM THE AXILLARY VEIN

30
Q

WHICH VEIN CONNECTS THE BASILIC AND CEPHALIC AT THE ELBOW

A

MEDIAN CUBITAL

31
Q

WHAT IS THE MOTOR INNERVATION OF THE ANTERIOR UPPER LIMB

A

MUSCULOCUTANEOUS

32
Q

WHAT IS THE MOTOR INNERVATION OF THE ANTERIOR FOREARM

A

MEDIAN (EXCEPT FCU AND PART OF FDP)

33
Q

WHAT DOES THE MEDIAN NERVE SUPPLY IN ADDITION TO THE MUSCLES OF THE ANTERIOR FOREARM

A

THERNAR MUSCLES AND TWO LATERAL LUMBRICALS IN THE HAND

34
Q

WHAT IS THE MOTOR INNERVATION OF THE EXTENSOR COMPARTMENTS OF THE UPPER LIMB

A

RADIAL NERVE

35
Q

WHAT IS THE COURSE OF THE RADIAL NERVE

A

DESCENDS DOWN THE HUMERUS AND WRAPS ROUND TO THE BACK (USUALLY FOUND NEAR THE BRACHIAL ARTERY)
TRAVELS ANTERIOR TO THE LATERAL EPICONDYL INTO THE FOREARM

36
Q

WHAT IS THE SENSORY INNERVATION OF THE RADIAL NERVE

A

INNERVATES MOST OF THE SKIN OF THE POSTERIOR UPPER LIMB AND POSTERIOR FOREARM

37
