Week 9 Flashcards
Which muscle runs through the IT groove
Long tendon of biceps brachi
Which muscles attach to the IT groove
Teres major
Pec major
Latissimus dorsi
Which artery runs through this
Anterior humeral circumflex artery
Which fossa is more lateral - radial or coronoid
Radial
Lateral epicondyle attaches to
Extensors
Medial epicondyle protects which nerve
Ulna
olecranon process of which bone sits where in which position
ulna, in extension
coronoid process of which bone sits where in which position
ulna, in flexion
shape of trochlea notch
wrench
radial notch location in relation to trochlea
lateral
tuberoscity of ulna location
inferior to the coronoid process of the ulna
what articulates at the tuberoscity of the ulna
brachialis muscle
elbow joint is made up of which 4 things
- medial condyle = trochlea
- lateral condyle = capitulum
- radius
- ulna
trochlea notch ensures
the joint is a pure hinge joint
Location of coronoid and olecranon process
see image in notes
Elbow joint is reinforced medially and laterally by
Collateral ligaments
Proximally how do the ulna and radius articulate
Head of radius
Radial notch of the ulna
Distally how do the ulna and radius articulate
Ulna head
Ulnar notch of radius
Type of joints of radius and ulna
Pivot
What keeps the joints in place
Proximally:
- collateral ligaments medially and laterally
- annular ligament
- interosseous membrane
Distally:
- Triangular fibrocartilage
- dorsal radioulnar ligament
- palmar radioulnar ligament
- Pronator quadratus
Elbow joint allows which 2 movements
Flex
extend
Radio-ulnar joint allows which 2 movements
supination
pronation
How do annular ligament and radius differ in kids - result
more conical shaped radius as head of radius isn’t fully formed
annular ligament is circular
pulled elbow
What process of the ulna is the radius tethered to and by what ligament
Styloid process
Triangular ligament
Long head of brachii in relation to short head
More lateral
