What are the palpable body landmarks?
-clavicle
-jugular notch
-manubrium
-body of sternum
-sternal angle
-xiphoid process
What are the layers of the epidermis?
stratum basale (deepest)
stratum spinosum
stratum granulosum
stratum lucidum
stratum corneum (most superficial)
What are the layers of the dermis?
papillary layer
reticular layer
What are the names of the superficial facia?
camper's- fatty layer
scapia's- membranous
Where are the mammary glands located?
located in the superficial fascia anterior to the pectoralis major muscle
What do suspensory ligaments (Cooper's) have to do with cancer?
If cancer or tumor is present and develops in the suspensory ligaments, as the tumor enlarges against the cooper's ligament it causes indentation on the nipple or the aereola
Why is the artery deeper than the vein?
Because if it were closer to the outside we would bleed to death everytime we cut our finger
Why is the film over the pectoral minor muscle shiny?
So it will not fray the fiber of the other muscle when there is movement
What is the space in between the mammary gland and the pectoral major?
The retromammary space
What is the clinical relevance of the retromammary space?
The retromammary space is often the site of breast implantation due to its location away from key nerves and structures that support the breast
What is the names of the two nerves under the pectoral major?
lateral and medial where
lateral is superior to the medial because in this case they are named according to where they came from
What is involved in creating tumors in breasts?
lymphatic drainage in axillary nodes (pectoral, humeral, supscapular, central, and apical)
What nerve(s) innervates the pectoralis major?
both the lateral and medial nerves
What nerve(s) innervates the pecteralis minor?
medial nerve
Which ribs are the atypical ribs?
Ribs 1, 2, 10-12
Which ribs are the floating ribs?
ribs 11 and 12
Which ribs are the typical ribs?
ribs 3-9
Which ribs are true ribs?
ribs 1-7
Which ribs are false ribs?
ribs 8-12
Why is rib one different?
It is flatter than all ribs
it contains notches for subclavian vein and artery along scalene tubrule.

has not angle on tubule and a single articular facet for the 1st vertebrae
What are the components of a typical rib?
shaft
tubricals-has facet to articulate with transverse process of same # vertebrae
neck
head
> two facets to articulate with same # vertebrae and the vertebrae superior
-costal groove- holds intercostal nerves and vessel
What is a dermatome?
A dermatome is a band of skin innervated by particular nerve.
What does T1 correspond to?
jugular notch
What dermatome does the jugular notch correspond to?
T1
What does T4 correspond to?
nipple
What dermatome does the nipple correspond to?
T4
What does T6 correspond to?
xiphoid process
What dermatome does the xiphoid process correspond to?
T6
What does T10 correspond to?
Umbilicus (belly button)
What dermatome does the umbilicus correspond to?
T10
What does T12 correspond to?
suprapubic
What dermatome does the suprapubic correspond to?
T12
How many pairs of dermatomes exist in the body?
31 pairs in spinal nerves in the spinal cord
What is the distinguishing feature of the cervical vertebrae?
transverse lamina
What is the distinguishing feature of the thoracic vertebrae?
articulation with ribs
What is the distinguishing feature of the lumar vertebrae?
huge vertebrae, no articulation for ribs, ONLY thoracic
What are atypical cervical vertebrae?

why?
C1, C2, and C7

why?
C1- no body, arch or tubricle
C2- dens [body of one is fused with two]
C7- cervical vertebral has vertical prominances
What are the three types of muscles in the thoracic cage?
-intercostal
-perctoalis major
-pecteralis minor
What are the intercostal muscles
>external intercostal muscle- runs downward and forward and eventually replaced by external intercostal membrane
>internal intercostal muscle runs downward and backwards deep into external muscle. runs out and is replaced by internal intercostal membrane.
>transversus throacis- discontinuous layer on deep surface of thoracic cage linking ribs to ribs and costal cartilages to sternum
What are some names for deep fascia?
-vaginal
-muscular
-pectoral
-clavipectoral (around armpit)
What thoracic vertebrae(s) correspond with the jugular notch?
2nd and 3rd
What thoracic vertebrae(s) correspond with the sternal angle?
4th and 5th
What thoracic vertebrae(s) correspond with the xiphisternal angle?
9th
