Dermatome
area of the skin which is supplied by a single spinal nerve
Cutaneous Innervation Peripheral Innervation
area of the skin innervated by a specific cutaneous nerve
Ulnar Artery
Splits into anterior and posterior interosseous ulnar arteries
Superior Border of Cubital Fossa
Imaginary line between medial and lateral epicondyle
Medial Border of Cubital Fossa
Pronator Teres
Mass of flexor muscles of forearm from medial epicondyle
Lateral Border of Cubital Fossa
Brachioradialis
Mass of extensor muscles from lateral epicondyle and supra-epicondyle ridge
Floor of Cubital Fossa
Brachialis
Supinator
Roof of Cubital Fossa
Brachial and antebrachial deep fascia
Bicipital aponeurosis
subcutaneous tissue
skin
Cubital Fossa contents
Brachial artery/radia & ulnar arteries
Biceps brachii tendon
median & radial nerve
Brachial artery lies
between biceps tendon and median nerve
Radial Collateral Ligament
LCL of elbow
resists varus forces
Distal radius will move medially
around head of radius, keeps it attached to shoulder joint
attaches to anular ligament
Ulnar Collateral Ligament
MCL of elbow
Resists valgus forces
Distal ulna will move laterally
made of Anterior, Posterior, Oblique bands
Bursa of elbow
Lateral & medial epicondyle
Anconeus
Extensor carpi radialis brevis
Olecranon bursae
Interosseous membrane
Transmits forces from radius to ulna
Lymphatic System
Lymph is excess fluid
removes debris and filters lymph before it goes back into the blood
