the pectoral region osteology:
clavicles
sternum
ribs
scapula
3 parts of the sternum
manubrium
body
xiphoid
what does the fascia of the pectoral region do? (4)
defines borders
invests muscles (covers)
creates potential spaces
consists of superficial and deep layers
what makes up the superficial fascia of the pectoral region? (3)
platysma
supraclavicular nerves
anterior and lateral branches of intercostal nerves
what are the borders of the deltopectoral (clavipectoral) triangle? (3)
deltoid
pectoralis major
middle 1/3 of clavicle
what are the contents of the deltopectoral (clavipectoral) triangle? (3)
cephalic vein
deltopectoral lymph nodes
deltoid branch of thoracoacromial A
what does the clavipectoral fascia do? (4)
invests subclavius and pectoralis minor
attatches to clavicle and anterior thoracic wall
cephalic vein, thoracoacromial artery, and lateral pectoral nerves pierce it
becomes suspensory ligament of axilla
