|
Elbow Bursae |
Subcutaneous Olecranon: Lies posteriorly over olecranon
Subtendinous Olecranon: proximal to triceps brachii insertion
Radioulnar
Bicipitoradial: between biceps brachii tendon and radial tuberosity |
|
Synovial Sheaths of Wrist (Palmar) |
Synovial sheaths allow free movement of tendons through carpal tunnel: FDS and FDP share a sheath (AKA Ulnar bursa) FPL has separate sheath (AKA Radial bursa) Synovial sheaths of FPL and 5th digit are continuous from the carpal tunnel
FCR has sheath but moves through own tunnel in flexor retinatculum
Palmaris Longus has no sheath |
|
Synovial Sheaths of Wrist (Dorsal) |
Six compartments (Divided by extensor retinaculum) -EPB and APL have separate sheaths but share a comparment -ECRB and ECRL have separate sheaths but share a compartment -EPL has separate sheath and compartment -ED and EI share synovial sheath and compartment -ECU and EDM have separate sheaths and compartments |
|
Digital Flexor Tendon Sheaths of Hand |
anterior to MP joints and extends to distal phalanges
fibrous arches and cruciate ligaments house the tendons and synovial sheaths (attached to palmar ligaments and to margins of phalanges)
Fibrous components: -annular ligaments (5 in fingers 2-5, 2 in thumb) -cruciate ligaments (3 in fingers 2-5) -one oblique ligament in thumb
Fibrous band functions: -acts as pulley system to maintain proper alignment of tendons to digit -prevents tendons from bowstringing -contributes to grip strength |
|
Scapulothoracic Articulation |
Scapula glides over bony ribcage. Scapula and clavicle must move together. Initial 30 degrees of arm abduction may involve no scapular movement. Scapulo-humeral rhythm: Ratio of glenohumeral:scapular movement is 2:1
Scapula function: -gives the humeral head a stable base on which to move -maintain a favorable length-tension relationship for UE muscles -Allows UE to elevate greater than 90-120 degrees -adds 60 degrees to elevation of arm via upward rotation (occurring at SC and AC joints) |
|
Shoulder bursae |
Subacromial (Subdeltoid) Infraspinatus Subscapular
Fibrous membrane lined with synovial membrane/fluid |
