Musculocutaneous n.
Origin, insertion, innervation, action of biceps brachii
Origin: Long head=supraglenoid tubercle Short head=coracoid process
Insertion: Radial tuberosity
Innervation: Musculocutaneous n
Action: Flexor of forearm at elbow
Origin, insertion, innervation, action of coracobrachialis
Origin: Coracoid process
Insertion: Humerus
Innervation: musculocutaneous n
Action: flex and add of arm and shoulder
Origin, insertion, innervation, action of brachialis
Origin: Humerus (lower half)
Insertion: Coranoid process
Innervation: Musculocutaneous n.
Action: Flexor of forearm at elbow
Function of radial nerve
extension of forearm at elbow, and extension of wrist
Origin, insertion, innervation, action of triceps brachii
Origin: Long head=infraglenoid, lateral head=upper humerus
medial head=lower humerus
Insertion: olecranon
Innervation: radial nerve
Action: extensor of forearm at elbow
3 impt connections of the elbow joint
1- head of the radius and capitellum
2-Trochlea and olecranon
3-Head of the radius and ulnar=proximal radioulnar joint
What two ligaments provide stability against lateral movement of the radius/ulna
Ulnar and radial ligaments
Most of the upper limbs are supplied by what artery
Subclavian arteries
The subclavian artery becomes the ___ a.
Axillary
1st, 2nd,3rd segment of the axillary nerve and their branches
1st= superior thoracic artery
2nd= thoracoacormial a. and lateral thoracic artery
3rd= anterior/posterior circumflex artery and subscapular artery
4 regions supplied by the thoracoacromial a.
subclavian, acromion, pec minor and deltoid
1st segment of axillary-between what 2 features

What two nerves come together to supply the posterior scapular components
Suprascapular a and circumflex scapular a.
At what margin does the axillary turn into the brachial a
Lower margin of the teres major muscle
What does the profunda brachii of the arm supply?
Posterior compartment (i.e. triceps)
2 pairs of nerve-artery pais
Radial n + profunda brachii
axillary n. + posterior circumflex humeral artery
What hole does the brachial pass through
cubital foss
Musculocutaneous nerve supplies the
anterior compartment of the arm
axillary nerve innervates the
deltoid
radial nerve innervates the
trapezius (extensor of forearm) and cutaneous innervation of the hand
median nerve innervates
forearm and hand (both motor and sensory)
Ulnar nerve supplies
1/2 forearm, 1/2 muscles in hand, 1/2 cuttaneous innvertaion of hand.
