long thoracic nerve

75
Q

What is the function of the serratus anterior?

A

Protracts the scapula and hold it
against the thoracic wall

-the inferior part of the serratus anterior:
1.Anterior rotates the scapula, elevating its glenoid cavity so the arm can be raised above the shoulder

  1. Participates in the abduction of the shoulder after 90 degrees
76
Q

What are the posterior extrinsic muscles?

A

Trapezius
Latissimus dorsi
Rhomboid minor and major
Levator scapulae

77
Q

What does the trapezius attaches?

A

Provides a direct attachment of the pectoral girdle to the trunk

78
Q

What are the functions of the trapezius?

A

descending part:
-elevate the tip of the shoulder (scapula)

middle part:
-retract the scapula

Ascending part:
-depress the scapula and lower the shoulder

79

What si the innervation of the trapezius

A

Spinal accessory nerve

80
Q

What does the serratus anterior with the trapezium do?

A

laterally rotate the scapula

81
Q

Where does the latissimus dorsi pass and acts?

Fan-shaped muscle passes from the
trunk to the humerus and acts directly
on the glenohumeral joint and indirectly
on the pectoral girdle

82
Q

What is the innervation of the latissimus dorsi?

A

Thoracodorsal nerve

83
Q

Function of the latissimus dorsi

A

Extends, adducts and medially rotates the humerus

84

What is the attachment of the latissimus dorsi in humerus?

A

floor of intertubercular groove of humerus

85
Q

What to do to test the latissimus dorsi?

A
  • the arm is abducted 90°and then adducted against resistance provided by the examiner.
  • If the muscle is normal, the anterior border of the muscle can be seen and easily palpated in the posterior axillary fold

[while applying resistance, ask the patient to extend and medially rotate the arm]

86
Q

Explain the work of the latissimus dorsi and pectoralis major together

A
  • These two muscles work together to produce adduction and depression of the shoulder.
  • In conjunction with the pectoralis major, the latissimus dorsi raises the trunk to the arm
  • These two actions allow us to bear the body’s weight with the upper extremity
87

To test the deltoid (or the function of the axillary nerve that supplies it), the
