What vertebra does the axial skeleton consist of?
7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumbar, 5 fused sacral, 3-4 fused coccyx
What is a prominens?
A prominent portion that sticks out
What is the external occipital protuberance?
Bony ridge located posteriorly and inferiorly
Which cervical vertebra has a prominens?
spine of scapula?
Inferior angle of scapula?
7th cervical
spine: T3
Inferior angle: T7
Which vertebral level:
Iliac crest?
Posterior superior iliac spine?
Crest - L4
Spine - S2
What is the ligamentum nuchae?
Extension of supraspinus ligament, extends from the occipital protuberance, and attaches to short processes of C3-7
What forms the triangle of auscultation?
Medial - inferior trapezius
Lateral - vertebral border of scapula
Inferior - superior border of latissimus dorsi
What are the borders of the lumbar triangle?
Medial- lateral border of latissimus dorsi
Lateral: External oblique
Inferior: iliac crest
What is an aponeurosis?
A grouping of fascia
Thoracolumbar fascia - function of superficial and deep?
Superficial distal attachment of latissimus dorsi, covers deep spinal m
Deep: Separates deep spinal mm from abdominal wall
What is CN XI and where does it arise from and what does it supply?
Spinal accessory, C3-4 nerve roots, supplies trapezius
Where does the dorsal scapular nerve arise and what does it supply?
C5, levator scapula, rhomboid major and minor mm.
Where does the thoracodorsal nerve arise and what does it supply?
C6-8 supplies latissimus dorsi
What do the intercostal nerves supply?
Serratus posterior both superior and inferior
What does the superficial branch of the transverse cervical a. supply? what about the deep branch?
Superficial- trapezius
Deep - levator scapulae and rhomboid mm
Where does the transverse cervical a. arise from?
The thyrocervical trunk from the subclavian
What if the transverse cervical a. does not bifurcate?
Called superficial cervical a. and only supplies trapezius, and a separate artery will arise from the subclavian called the descending scapular artery to supply the levator scapulae and rhomboid m.
What does the thoracodorsal a branch from and what does it travel with and to what?
3rd part of the axilary a. travels with thoracodorsal n. to latissimus dorsi m.
Where does the trapezius originate?
Superior nuchal line, external occipital protuberance, ligamentum nuchae, spinous processes of C7-T12
Where does the trapezius insert?
Spine of the scapula, acromion and lateral 1/3 of clavicle
What does the trapezius do?
upper?
lower?
Adducts and rotates scapula
upper: elevates scapula
Lower: depresses scapula
What innervates the trapezius and what is its arterial supply?
Spinal accessory n CN 11
Superficial branch of transverse cervical a.
What is the origin of the latissimus dorsi?
Spinous processes of all vertebrae below T6, thoracolumbar fascia, crest of ilium and lower 3 or 4 ribs
What is the insertion and action of the latissimus dorsi?
Inserts into the floor of intertubercular groove of the humerus, extends adducts and rotates arm medially
What is the nerve and arterial supply of the latissimus dorsi?
Thoracodorsal n C6-8
Thoracodorsal a.
What is the origin, insertion and action of the levator scapulae

Elevates scapula and rotates glenoid cavity inferiorly
What is the nerve and arterial supply of the levator scapulae?
Dorsal scapular n. C5
Deep branch of transverse cervical a.
What is the origin, insertion and action of the rhomboid major?
Origin is the spinous process of C7-T1,
Root of spine of scapula
Retract (adduct) scapula
What is the nerve and artery of rhomboid major?
Dorsal scapular n. C5
Deep branch of transverse cervical a.
What is the origin insertion and action of the rhomboid minor?
Spinous process of T2-5
Medial border of scapula inferior to spine
Retract (adduct) scapula
What is the nerve and artery of rhomboid minor?
Dorsal scapular n (C5)
Deep branch of transverse cervical a.
What is the action and nerve of superior serratus posterior?
Inspiration, intercostal n T1-4
What is the action and nerve of inferior serratus posterior?
Inspiratory m. intercostal T9-12
