Pectoral Girdle consists of:
|
Clavicle
Scapula |
|
2 Clavicle surfaces
|
- superior surface is very smooth
- inferior surface is rough for ligament attachment |

|

|
What happens with a fractured clavicle?
|
o Medial end of clavicle is elevated by upward pull of SCM
o Shoulder drops—trapezius can’t support weight of upper limb o Arm is adducted and medial rotated. |
|
Purpose of the clavicle
|
o Acts as a rigid support
o One of boundaries of cervicoaxillary canal o Transmits forces from upper limb → axial skeleton |

|
|
Clavipectoral fascia is continuos with
|
deep fascia of the neck
|
|
Clavipectoral fascia path
|
- attaches to clavicle
- splits to surround subclavius - 2 layers fuse to form the costocoracoid membrane - splits to surround pec minor - 2 layers fuse to form the suspensory ligament of axilla |
|

|
Cephalic Vein

|
The lateral side of dorsal venous arch
|
|

|
Deltopectoral groove
|
|
Cephalic vein pierces ----- to drain into -----?
|
pierces the costocorocoid membrane
drains into the axillary vein |
|
Thoracoacromial trunk is a branch of
|
Axillary Artery
|
|
Thoracoacromial trunk divides into 4 groups
|
Clavicular branches
Pectoral branches Deltoid branches Acromial branches |
|
Pec Major
OIA |
ORIGIN: 2 heads of origin
- clavicular head: medial 1/2 clavicle - sternal head: ant. surface of sternum costal cartilage ribs 1-6 aponeurosis of external obliques INSERTION: lateral lip of bicipital groove ACTIONS: arm adducion and internal rotation • Clavicular head: flexion of arm • Sternal head: extension of arm INNERVATION: • Clavicular head: lateral pectoral nerve • Sternal head: medial pectoral nerve |
|
Pec Minor
OIA |
- origin: ribs 3, 4, 5
- insertion: coracoid process - action: elevate the ribs on deep inspiration depress the scapula - innevation: medial pectoral nerve |
|
Key muscle in the axillary region
|
Pec Minor
|
|
Subclavius
OIA |
- origin: first costal cartilage
- insertion: middle 1/3 of clavicle - action: depress the clavicle - innervation: nerve to subclavius |
|
nerve to subclavius carries fibers from
|
C5 and C6
|
|
Serratus Anterior
OIA |
- origin: ribs 1-8
- insertion: medial border on the anterior surface of scapula - innervation: long thoracic nerve C5-C7 “keeps wings out of heaven” - action: stabilize scapula protraction of scapula assists with rotating the scapula when the arm is abducted above the horizontal |
