lower sub scapular nerve

35
Q

distal attachment of supraspinatus

38
Q

Proximal attachment of the supraspinatus

A

Supraspinous fossa of scapula

39
Q

Distal attachment of the supraspinatus

A

Superior facet of greater tubercle of humerus

40
Q

actions of supraspinatus

A

Works with deltoid in abduction of humerus, acts with other rotator cuff muscles in stabilizing shoulder joint

41
Q

Innervation of the supraspinatus

A

Suprascapular nerve

42
Q

Proximal attachment of subscapularis

A

Subscapular fossa (anterior surface of scapula)

43
Q

Distal attachment of subscapularis

A

lesser tubercle of humerus

44
Q

Actions of subscapularis

A

medially rotates and adducts humerus

helps hold humeral head in place

45
Q

Innervation of Subscapularis

A

Upper and lower subscapular nerves

46
Q

The lower subscapular nerve innervates

A

Teres major and the subscapularis (note that the subscapularis is innervated by the upper scapular nerve as well)

47
Q

The upper subscapular nerve innervates

A

Subscapularis (note that it is also innervated by the lower subscapular nerve

48
Q

what is the largest and strongest rotator cuff muscle

A

Subscapularis

49
Q

Are isolated subscapularis tears relatively rare

A

Yes

50
Q

Subsapularis injuries can lead to

A

bicipital tendon instability and biceps tendonitis

51
Q

subscapularis injuries are fairly common sports injuries in

A

Infraspinous fossa of scapula

53
Q

Distal attachment of infraspinatus

Q

The suprascapular nerve innervates

A
  • Supraspinatus

- infraspinatus

Q

axillary nerve arises from

A

Arises from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus

65
Q

Rotator cuff injuries

A
  • 90 degree angle of humerus creates compression point for the tendon of supraspinatus
  • Supraspinatus tendon can also tear. This is a common injury in the elderly
  • repetitive overhead activities can lead to injuries
  • other causes: bone spurs, anatomical variation of the acromion (i.e., odd-shaped acromion that limits the space within the roof of the gleaned fossa)
