Shoulder arthroscopy means the word arthroscopy comes from two Greek words, “arthro” means joint and “skopein” means to look which it has a term for it which it means to look within the joint. The shoulder arthroscopy surgery is examining or repairing the tissues inside or around your joint shoulder where it feels pain and the shoulder arthroscopy surgery uses medical tool called Arthroscopy which it is inserted through a small cut in your skin and perform surgery from there through camera.…

“Pain is temporary. It may last a minute or a hour, or a day, or a year, but eventually it will subside and something else will take its place. If I quit, however, it will last forever.” - Lance Armstrong June 21st, 2016 friday afternoon, a day that to this day I will never forget it. It was the beginning of my senior football season during preseason and I was looking at a huge season ahead of me. I was looking at starting both sides of the ball offense and defense. It was something that I was…

Radial Head Elbow Fracture With Rehab A radial head fracture is a break in the smaller bone in your forearm (radius). There are two bones in your forearm. The radial bone is the bone on the side of your thumb. The fracture is located at the head of the bone, which is at the elbow joint. This usually happens because of an injury, such as a fall on an outstretched arm. There are different types of radial head fracture. They are determined by the amount of movement (displacement) of bones from…

The humerus is classed as a long bone and is located in the upper arm, connecting the shoulder to the elbow. The long bone as suggested by its name is long in structure, meaning they are considerably longer then they are wider. The structure for the humerus is typically similar to all structures of long bones, with a shaft, bone ends and membranes. Dyaphysis or the shaft of the humerus makes up the long axis of he bone and is constructed of very high density compact bone (Merieb, 2010). This…

Nine muscles insert on and move the humerus. First, the pectoralis major originates on the medial half of the clavicle, one side of the sternum, on the costal cartilage (1-7) and the aponeurosis of the external oblique. It inserts on lateral lip of the intertubercular groove of the humerus. The pectorals major flexes, medially rotates and adducts the humerus. Second, the deltoid originates from the lateral half part of the clavicle (anterior fibers), the acromion of the scapula (lateral fibers)…

these muscles originate from the scapula and attach into the humerus. The Supraspinatus muscle originates in the Supraspinatus Fossa and attaches to the greater tubercle of the humerus. The infraspinatus originates in the Infraspinatus Fossa and like the Supraspinatus muscle, attaches to the greater tubercle of the humerus. The Teres Minor muscle originates in the lateral scapulae border and attaches to the greater tubercle of the humerus. The Subscapularis…

are the head of humerus and glenoid fossa of scapula. The humeral head can be in articulation with the glenoid fossa in any position of joint because the head of the humerus is larger than the glenoid fossa. This relationship is best compared with a golf ball siting on a tee, with stability conferred by static and dynamic…

the conclusion made by the measurement found is that the femur belongs to a female. All in all, the measurements found all point towards the femur belonging to a female. The last salvaged bone from the body that was tested was the humerus. The first aspect of the humerus that was measured was the transverse diameter of the…

transhumeral amputation typically occurs above the elbow. Cheesborough et al. suggest preserving the humerus bone segment at an approximate length of 6 to 8 cm. In addition to the length they recommend fixating the humerus at a 70 degree angle with a metal plate to give the arm rotational and leverage control when using a prosthetic arm (Cheesborough et al.,2015). In addition the shape and length of the residual humerus bone allows for increased suspension of a prosthetic arm (Tintle et…
