Flashcards
Clavicle
Clavicle
A bone located in the shoulder girdle, connecting the sternum to the scapula.
Coracoclavicular ligament
Coracoclavicular ligament
A ligament that attaches the clavicle to the scapula. It provides support and stability to the shoulder joint.
Scapula
Scapula
A triangular-shaped bone located on the posterior aspect of the thorax, forming the shoulder joint with humerus.
Supraspinatus muscle
Supraspinatus muscle
A muscle that originates from the scapula and inserts on the humerus, responsible for shoulder abduction (raising arm out to the side).

Anatomical Structures
- Muscles: Numerous muscles are labeled and categorized by their origins, insertions, and attachments. Examples include the trapezius, deltoid, pectoralis major, latissimus dorsi, biceps brachii, triceps brachii, and many more.
- Ligaments: Various ligaments are detailed, including costoclavicular, coracoclavicular, trapezoid, and conoid ligaments, among others.
- Bones: The humerus, radius, ulna, clavicle, and scapula are identified, with specific anatomical features like epicondyles, tubercles, and facets noted.
- Nerves: The brachial artery, radial nerve, ulnar nerve, median nerve, and their branches are identified and illustrated.
- Arteries: Several arteries are labeled, including the brachial artery, axillary artery, profunda brachii artery, radial artery, ulnar artery, and their branches.
Elbow Joint Structures
- Ligaments: The radial collateral ligament and ulnar collateral ligament stabilize the elbow.
- Capsule: A joint capsule encloses the elbow joint.
- Bones: The humerus, radius, and ulna are the bones forming the elbow joint.
- Tubercles: The radial and ulnar tuberosities are visible attachment points for muscles.
Anatomical Diagrams
- Anterior and Posterior Views: Diagrams present the same area from both sides of the body, emphasizing anatomical placement and relationships.
- Muscle Attachments: Illustrations clearly demonstrate the origins and insertions of muscles.
- Nerve and Artery Pathways: The pathways of nerves and arteries are shown in several diagrams.
- Detailed Labeling: Labels explicitly identify every anatomical structure present in the visual.
Clinical Conditions
- Claw Hand Deformity: This condition affects the hand's shape, usually caused by issues related to nerve function.
