Upper Limbs & Fascia Flashcards
Central supporting axis
Axial
Bones of the extremities is classified as
Appendicular
The ONLY bone to bone joint connection between the upper limb and the axial skeleton. (Shoulder complex to thorax)
Sternoclavicular joint
What type of synovial joint is glenohumeral and acromioclavicular joint?
Ball and socket , plane
Acts as the wrapping, packaging and insulating material of the deep structures
Fascia
Made up of loose connective tissue with fat deposits. Subcutaneous tissue.
Superficial tissue
Made up of Dense connective tissue
Deep fascia
Fascia that encloses the arm.
Attached inferiorly to the epicondyles of the humerus and the olecranon of the ulna
Brachial fascia
Deep fascia of the forearm
Antebrachial fascia
Fascia that Descends over the superficial surface of the deltoid
from the clavicle, acromion, and scapular spine.
Deltoid fascia
Invests the pectoralis major and is continuous inferiorly with the fascia of the anterior abdominal wall
Pectoral fascia
Forms floor of the axilla
Axillary fascia
septae that surrounds the whole neck muscles
Investing layer
Intermusclular septae
divide the space inside brachial fascia into anterior and posterior compartments .
Intermembranous fascia
divide the space inside antebrachial fascia into anterior and posterior
compartments
Enumerate the 5 compartments of the palm
Hypothenar compartment Thenar compartment Adductor compartment Central compartment Interrosseus compartment
Location of adductor policis
Adductor compartment
Compartment underneath the pinky
Hypothenar compartment
Compartment underneath the thenar compartment
Adductor compartment
Compartment underneath the thumb
Thenar compartment
Central compartment is made up of loose connective tissue. T/F
T
3 muscle compartments of the shoulder
Anterior axioappendicular MS
Posterior axioappendicular grp
Posterior scapulohumeral MS
Most superficial muscle of the thorax
Pectoralis major
Composed of sternocostal and clavicular head
Pectoralis major
Movement of sternocostal and clavicular head
FECS
Flexion clavicular; extension sternocostal
Pectoralis major; greater breast muscle
____________ ; lesser breast muscle
Pectoralis minor
thin, flat muscle found immediately underneath the
pectoralis major.
Pectoralis minor
Serves as landmark for axilla structures like brachial
plexus and axillary artery.
Pectoralis minor
Subclavius
Muscle under the clavicle.
small triangular muscle placed between the clavicle and
the first rib.
Role of subclavius
Helps resist the tendency of the clavicle to dislocate at the
sternoclavicular (SC) joint.
Saw-like anterior muscle
rotates the scapula
Serratus anterior
paralysis of serratus anterior / injury to long thoracic nerve
Winging of the scapula
Enumerate the muscles of the axioappendicular grp
Superficial layer
- trapezius
- latissiimus Dorset
Deep
- levator scapulae
- rhomboids
Four-sided muscle
a large muscle bundle that extends from the back of your head and neck to your shoulder.
Trapzius
