Q

What are the essential features of the Clavicle?

A

Undergoes Intramembranous ossification: one of First bones to calcify, one of last to finish calcification
Sinuous and long bone
Medial convexity point anteriorly
Largely subcutaneous
Proximal end = triangular cross section= joint with manubrium of axial sacpula
Distal end = flattened = joint with acromium of scapula
Functions as Strut = between Manubrium of axial sternum and Acromium of scapula.
-keeps scapula away from thoracic wall. Any load from uppr limb gets transmitted to scapula –> and onto Thin bone of the clavicle
– therefore clavicle gets fractured alot

Sleeve like, relatively loose joint capsule

contains an intrinsic acromioclavicular ligament

80
Q

Where is the location of a sleeve like, relatively loose joint capsule that contains a ligament inside?

A

AC acromioclavicular joint
it is the acromioclavicular joint capsule
containing the acromioclavicular ligament intrinsically
-helps strengthen the joint
-also contains wedge like fibrocartilagenous interarticular disc within the synovial joint

81
Q

What are the essential features of the coracoclavicular ligament?

A

Strongest element linking the clavicle and scapula together
2x parts = Conoid(inverted cone Medially) + Trapzoid (tapezium Laterally) technically isnt part of your AC joint - but strengthens and supports AC joint
-Injured in Rugby players
coracoid - clavicle
attached to roughened area on clavicle
Working with Trapezius (attached to upper surface of acromium)
-has upwards pull on clavicle and acromium - with coracoclavicular ligament allows for passive suspension of lower limb
-dont have to use muscle to suspend the upper limb to hang your arm by its side (no energy burnt)

82
Q

What ligament it typically injured with ruby players?

A

coracoclavicular ligament

83
Q

What are the 2x components of the coracoclavicular ligament and their relative positions?

A

Medial Twisted and inverted cone = Conoid

Lateral Trapezium = Trapazoid

84
Q

What is by far the strongest element linking the scapula to the clavicle?

A

coracoclavicular ligament (2x elements (Medial inverted cone = conoid + Lateral trapezium=trapazoid)

85
Q

What is the relationship between the Trapezium and the Coracoclavicular ligament?

A

Trapezium = Inserts onto top of the acromium
has an upwards pull on acromium and clavicle
With the coracoclavicular ligament (b/w coracoid and clavicular) strengthens AC joint And allows the free limb to passively suspend by your side - Dont have to burn energy/use muscle to hang and be passively suspended by trapezius’ upwards pull and wont tear apart either

86
Q

Which part of the clavicle is most frequently broken and who often suffers from this broken clavicular?

A

Weakest part = no muscle attachments to strengthen and stabilise = 1/3 Laterally, 2/3 medially
-especially when loads are being put up through the upper limb
Cyclists, feet locked in, put arm out to stop fall, force shoots up arm, arm muscles and scapula quite strong, so load/force goes through clavicle. long, sinuous and thin bone acting as strut. Areas with muscle attachment are strengthened and stabilised. But area 1/3 lateral and 2/3 medial has No musclar support fractures. Clavicle goes upwards, free limb falls . Scapula goes inwards towards thoracic wall (due to pull of anterior and posterior muscles).

87
Q

Why is the part of the clavicle (1/3 laterally, 2/3 medially) the weakest part of the clavicle and more prone to fracturing?

A

Becuase the area of the clavicle without any muscular attachments for stability and strength is at 1/3 lateral and 2/3 medial. therefore when a force/large load is sent up the road (cylcist with locked in feettrying to stop their flal) force is transmitted up arm, and there are quite strong arm muscles and scapula, so force is transmitted along long, sinuous and thin clavicle. this particular area has No muscular support or strengthening –> fractures. clavicle goes upwards, Free limbs falls. Scapula goes inwards towards the thoracic wall (due to general pull towards thorax by attaching anterior and posterior muscles)

88
Q

What is Cleidocranial Dyostosis?

A

Clavicle and Cranial bones harden via process of interosseous ossification
Failure for to ossify of these 2x bones = cleidocranial dyostosis
-can bring their scapula’s in close medially
-as clavicle is rubbery and not ossified
-genetic disorder

89
Q

What are stabilising joints?

A

When muscles are stimulate
But they do not shorten
many joints in the upper limb are highly mobile/lots of laxisity in the joints
-therefore the only way to stabilise these joints is with muscles
-therefore these muscles are WORKING but they are NOT MOVING aything

Primary action: Retracts scapula
(2 action : elevates scapula. Inferiorly rotates scapula)
Nerve supply: Dorsal Scapula Nerve
-Deep to trapezius
-rhomboid 4x sided shape
-Minor above major
Minor= Higher, Thicker and Smaller C7-T1 spinous process
Major = longer origin. Inserts to remaining medial border of scapula

102

C7-T1

Higher, Thicker and Smaller

103
Q

A

Dorsalis Pedis Nerve

-runs Underneath the muscle

104
Q

Levator Scapulae

A

Primary Action: Elevates scapula
(2 inferiorly rotate scapula)
originates from transverse process of upper C cervical vertebrae
Inserts = Superior Angle of scapula
Laterally rotating and bending your neck if lock scapula with other muscles
Acts on neck just as much as scapula

Runs UNDERNEATH

-under Rhomboid Major - Minor and Levator Scapulae

108
Q

Lattisimus Dorsi

A

3x Primary actions: Adducts humerus. Internally rotates humerus. Lower fibres can depress scapula by pulling on humerus
(2 inferiorly rotate scapula by pulling on humerus)
Nerve Supply: Thoracodorsal nerve
-large and broad muscle
-Most of the middle aspect of LAt Dorsi - large,broad, flat tendon = Aponeurosis –> as the belly of Lat dorsi doesnt start until 1/2 way up the muscle
Huge origin: T7 - Sacrum (originates from Illiac Crest)
sometimes has fibres coming off ribs
Insertion: Posterior fold of armpit (axilla) - palpable
-Twists around onto the FRONT of the humerus (not pec girdle bone)

109
Q

What muscle in the back has a middle region that is mainly a large, broad and flat tendon. And what is that tendon called?

A

Latissimus Dorsi

  • Aponeurosis in back middle part
  • muscle belly doesnt start until 1/2 way up the muscle
110
Q

On what muscle is the aponeurosis of the back located on and why?

A

Latissimus Dorsi

because its muscle belly doesnt start until 1/2 way up

111
Q

What is the insertion of Latissiumus Dorsi?

A

Front of Humerus

112
Q

Pectoralis Major

A

-Most superficial muscle on the front of you chest
-Bypasses the pectoral girdle and links the axial skeleton with the humerus itself
-2x heads Originates from Larger and more axial sternocostal (sternum and costal cartilage)head and clavicular Head
Insertion: 2x heads twist and attach onto the Front of the humerus
3x Primary actions: Adduct humerus, internally rotate humerus, protract scapula by pulling on the humerus
(2 depresses and inferiorly rotates scapula by pulling on the humerus)
-stretch sternocostal head most when during hyperextension of shoulders in a slightly abducted state
Nerve Supply: Lateral and Medial Pectoral Nerve
Damage: Gym too much. Pectoral Major is on front. Head from Sternocostal head tears off/ Bench press too much -hyper extend shoulders in a slightly abducted state

113
Q

What are the 2x origins of the 2x heads of the Pectoralis Major?

A
  1. Sternocostal Head (costal cartilage of the sternum)
  2. Clavicular head
    - these 2x heads twist around eachother and both insert onto the front of the humerus (bypass pectoral girdle and directly connect axial skeleton with humerus)
114
Q

Does the Pectoralis Major actually fully bypass the pectoral girdle?

A

Not 100%
as technically it is attached to the clavicular which is still considered to part of the pectoral girdle
-mainly is considered to have bypassed the pectoral girdle and to just connect the axial skeleton directly with the humerus

115
Q

When is there the greatest stretch on the sternocostal head of Pectoralis Major?

A

Hyper extension of Pec Major is a slightly abducted state

116
Q

What do both the Lateral and Medial Pectoral nerves innervate?

A

Pectoral Major

117
Q

What is the difference between the 2x heads of Pectoral Major?

A

Sternocostal head: Larger, More Axial. off costal cartilage and sternum
Clavicular head

118
Q

When is the Arnold Schwarziniger injury caused and to what muscle?

A

Bench Press too much (gym too much)
Pec Major
Sternocostal head torn off
-as sternocostal head being most stretch during hyperextended and slightly abducted state

119
Q

Subclavius

A

Primary action: “Braces” clavicle
(2 weak depressor of the scapula)
costal cartilage –> subclavian groove
Little muscle
3x Attachments: Subclavian groove, first rib and first costal cartilage
Helps to strengthen sternoclavicular joint (brace of clavicle)
-if there is superior lateral tension running through clavicle’s chaft, subclavian muscle can contract to avoid clavicle dislocating from the joint from tension
Innervated by C5

120
Q

What muscle has the primary action of bracing the clavicle?

A

Subclavian

-helps to strengthen the sternoclavicular joint

121
Q

What are the 3x attachments of the Subclavian muscle?

A
  1. subclavian groove
  2. first rib
  3. first costal cartilage
122
Q

What does the combination of the subclavian groove, first rib and first costal cartilage form together?

A

The 3x attachements of the subclavian muscle

  • brace for the clavicular
  • acts to strengthen the sternoclavicular joint
123
Q

What is an explicit example of the subclavian muscle acting as a brace including tension?

A

If Tension running up the shaft of the clavicle (Superiorly and LAaerally)
Subclavius can strengthen the sternoclavicular joint by contracting and stopping the clavicular from dislocating out of the joint from tension
“brace” - strengthen sternoclavicular joint (even though it is an incredibly strong joint)

124
Q

What is the relative likelihood of breaking the clavicle to dislocating the sternoclavicular joint?

A

More Likely to Break clavicle > dislocating sternoclavicular joint
-is a very strong joint

125
Q

Pectoralis Minor

A

Origin: 3-5th ribs -anteriorlateral aspects-variable
Insertion: Coracoid ProcessPrimary action: Depresses Scapula
(2 tries to protract scapula)
Nerve Supply: Medial Pectoral Nerve
-Landmark, as will see medial Pectoral nerve linking between Pec Minor and Pec Major - as innervated both
-under Pec Minor= Neurovascular bundle
-stretch neurovascular bundle when abduct arm fully, stretching it around and underneath the coracoid process
-Saturday Night Palsy - have compressed nerve and artery and whole arm numb
- due to sleeping with abducted arm and neurovascular bundle has been compressed under the coracoid and pecminor

126
Q

Which Pectoral nerve out of Lateral and Medial P.N. innervates both the Pectoral muscles?

A

Medial pectoral nerve innervates both Pectoralis Major and Minor
-can be seen running through and linking pectoralis major and minor

127
Q

What is the relationship between nerves, Saturday night palsy and Pec Minor?

A

Neurovascular bundle located underneath pec minor
stretched when arm is full abducted
can be compressed under coracoid process
-Saturday night Palsy -when fallen asleep in fully abducted state and cant feel arm as nerves and arteries have been compressed and makes whole arm feel numb
-usually happens under pecminor and the coracoid process

128
Q
