(32 cards)
Origin of Trapezius
occipital bone
ligamentum nucae
spinous process of C7-T12
Insertion of Trapezius
Lateral 1/3 of clavicle
Acromion and spine of scapula
Motor inneravtion of Trapezius
CN XI, spinal accessory
Pain/properioception innervation of trapezius
C3,C4
Action of Trapezius
hold upper limb to trunk, adduct, raise, depress, and rotate scaupla.
What does nerve injury of CN XI cause
dropping of shoulder
Origin of latissimus dorsi
spinous process of lower 6 thoracic vertebrae
thoracolumbar fascia
iliac crest and lower 3 or 4 ribs
Insertion of Latissimus Dorsi
humerus
innervation of latissimus dorsi
thoracodorsal nerve
blood supply of latissimus dorsi
thoracodorsal artery
Nerve injury affecting latissimus dorsi causes
inability to raise trunk with upper limbs during climbing
Action of latissimus dorsi
extend arm and rotates it medially
adducts, extends, and medially rotates the humerus at the shoulder joint.
Triangle of auscultation is bound by what
trapezius, latissimus dorsi and medial border of scapula
Origin of Levator Scapulae
transverse processes of 1st 3 or 4 cervical vertebrae
Insertion of levator scauplae
superior angle of scupla and along its upper medial border
Blood supply to levator scapula
dorsal scapular a and deep branch of transervse cervical a
Innervation of levator scapula
dorsal scapular nerve and C3 and C4
Action of levator scapulae
elevates scapula.
Rotates scapula to move glenoid cavity and shoulder joint inferiorly
Origin of Rhomboid major and minor
spines of lower cervical (C7) and upper thoracic (T1-T5) vertebra
Insertion of rhomboid major and minor
medial border of scapula
Blood supply to rhomboid major and minor
dorsal scapular a
Action of rhomboid major and minor
adduct scapular, rotate scapula so glenoid cavity moves inferiorly
Innervation of Rhomboid major and minor
Dorsal scapular n and some fibers from C4
Injury to dorsal scapular n causes
inability to adduct scapula
