tendon of biceps brachii;
brachial artery; median nerve |
|

|
flexors of the wrist/digits; forearn pronators
|
|
Posterior compartment of forearm
|
extensors of wrist/digits; forearm supinators
|
|
Interosseous membrane
|
fibrous membrane btw radius and ulna. helps transfer forces from radius to ulna after FOOSh
|
|
Colles fracture
|
distal fracture of radius, fragment displaces dorsally
|
|

|
Pronator Teres; flexor carpi radialis; palmeris longus, flexor carpi ulnaris, flexor digitorum superficialis
|
|
Superficial anterior muscles of forearm innervated by

Median nerve, except for FCU (ulnar)
|
|
Deep anterior muscles of forearm
|
Flexor Digitorum profundus, flexor pollicis longus, pronator quadratus
|
|
Deep anterior muscles of forearm innervated by

anterior interosseous nerve (branch of median) except for medial half of FDP (ulnaris)
|
|
Forearm pronators
|
Pronator teres and pronator quadratus
|
|
Pronator Teres
|
provides extra speed/power in pronation, originates on medial epicondyle and proximal head of ulna; inserts on middle of radius
|
|
Pronator quadratus
|
main forearm pronator. pulls distal radius across ulna.
|
|
common flexor origin
|
medial epicondyle of humerus; all 5 superficial forearm flexors originate here.
|
|
flexor digitorum superficialis
|
humeroulnar and radial heads; 4 tendons pass beneath flexor retinaculum; separate and flex 4 PIPJs. median nerve
|
|
flexor digitorum profundus
|
4 tendons that flex DIPJs; unique innervation: lateral half by AIN and medial half by ulnar.
|
|
Posterior compartment of forearm
|
wrist extensors, digit extensors, extensors/abductors of thumb. All innervated by radial nerve
|
|
Common extensor tendon origin
|
lateral epicondyle of humerus
|
|
Wrist extensors
|
Extensor carpi radialis longus; extensor carpi radialis brevis; extensor carpi ulnaris
|
|
Extensors of the digits
|
extensor digitorum; extensor indicis; extensor digiti minimi. tendons insert into expansion hood
|
|
Extendors/Abductors
|
Abductor Pollicis Longus, Extensor Pollicis Brevis, Extensor Pollicis Brevis.
|
|
BS Muscles
|
Brachoradialis (forearm flexor but in posterior compartment. radial nerve); supinator (deep radial nerve)
|
|
Tendons of all forearm/wrist extensors secured by
|
extensor retinaculum
|
