Q

serratus anterior is innervated by? what is interesting about this relationship?

A

the long thoracic nerve

the long thoracic nerve is found superficially to the serratus anterior- laceration can cause winged scapula

Q

denervation of serratus anterior muscle can lead to winged scapula. Why?

A

the long thoracic innervates the serratus anterior. The scapula is held against the posterior thoracic wall by the tension and tone of the serratus anterior. Losing tone causes the scapula to wing away from the posterior wall
