Ruture of the Rotator cuff and attrition of the supruspinatus and eventually lead to?
An open communtion between the shoulder joint cavity and the subacromial bursa(subcromial bursistis) resulting in painful abduction of shoulder or arm

anastomies formed by branches of the brachial artery and recurrent branches of the radial and ulnar arteries
The Elbow joint is reinforced by what ligaments
Annular Ligament
Radial collateral Ligament
Ulnar collateral Ligament
The Ulnar collateral Ligament is composed of
Ant,Post., and Oblique bands. Extends from the Medial epicondyle to the coranoid process and the olecranon of the Ulna
The Radial Collateral Ligament extends from
Extends from the later epicondyle to the anterior and posterior margins of the radial notch of the ulna and the annular ligament of the radius
The Annular Ligament forms
Nearly 4/5 of a circle around the head of the radius, theradial notch forms the remainder
The annular Ligament fuses with?
Fuses with the Radial collateral ligament and articular capsule, preventing withdraw of the head of the radial from its socket
The Proximal Radioulnar joint forms what type of synovial joint
Synovial pivot joint
The Proximal Radioulnar joint allows articulation between
Head of the radius and the radial notch of the ulna allowing pronation and supination
Distal Radiolunar joint is what type of synovial joint between what structures
Synovial pivot joint between the head of the ulna and the ulnar notch of the radius allowing pronation and supination
The Wrist(Radiocarpal) joint is what type of Synovial joint
Synovial condylar joint
The Wrist joint(Radiocarpal) is formed by
The radius and the articular disk and inferiorly the proximal row of carpal bones(Scaphoid, Lunate,Triquetrum)
