Study Notes

Upper Limb Blood Supply

The subclavian artery supplies the upper limb.
The subclavian artery passes through the scalene triangle.

Scapular Anastomosis

The scapular anastomosis is contributed to by the suprascapular artery.
The scapular anastomosis is formed by the anastomosis of the suprascapular artery with the deep branch of the transverse cervical artery.

Axillary Artery

The axillary artery becomes the brachial artery at the inferior border of the teres major muscle.
The axillary artery supplies the flexor muscles of the arm.

Brachial Plexus

The brachial plexus carries motor and sensory information.
The roots of the brachial plexus contain axons from multiple spinal nerves (C5-T1).
The C5 root of the brachial plexus innervates the functional group of muscles responsible for shoulder movements.
The rhomboids and levator scapulae muscles are innervated by the dorsal scapular nerve.
The biceps brachii muscle is innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve.
The flexor carpi ulnaris muscle is innervated by the ulnar nerve.
The deltoid and teres minor muscles are innervated by the axillary nerve.
The lateral palm of the hand and lateral 3 and 1/2 digits are innervated by the radial nerve.
The posterior arm and posterior forearm are innervated by the radial nerve.
The trunks of the brachial plexus divide into anterior and posterior divisions.

Arteries

The subclavian artery is the stem artery to the upper limb.
The subclavian artery is responsible for the arterial supply of the upper limb.
The radial artery forms the deep palmar arch in the hand.
The ulnar artery contributes to the superficial palmar arch in the hand.
The radial artery is smaller than the ulnar artery.
The radial artery passes through the anatomical snuffbox in the hand.
The subclavian artery is a direct branch off of the arch of the aorta.
The scalene muscle attaches to the first rib in front of the subclavian artery.
The scalene muscle attaches to the ribs behind the subclavian artery.
The medial part of the subclavian artery is medial to the scalene muscle.
The vertebral artery is the first branch of the subclavian artery and supplies the brain.
The internal thoracic artery runs down either side of the sternum on the posterior aspect.
The thyrocervical trunk is a branch of the first part of the subclavian artery and contributes to the scapular anastomosis.

Other

The teres major muscle divides the axillary artery into different parts.
The radial collateral artery supplies the muscles on the posterior aspect of the arm.
The deep brachial artery and the radial nerve travel close to the bone in the spiral groove.
The radial artery is a branch of the brachial artery in the cubital fossa.
The profunda brachii artery wraps around the posterior aspect of the humerus and the surgical neck of the humerus.
The circumflex scapular artery is a branch of the axillary artery that contributes to the scapular anastomosis.
The radial collateral artery and the middle collateral artery wrap around the surgical neck of the humerus.
The brachial artery starts at the inferior border of the teres major muscle.
The brachial artery supplies the flexors of the arm and forearm.
The radial artery travels close to the interosseous membrane in the forearm.
The flexor digitorum profundus muscle is deep to the common interosseous artery in the forearm.
The ulnar artery continues into the superficial palmar arch.
The ulnar artery accompanies the ulnar nerve in the forearm.
The common interosseous artery is also referred to as the 'common interosseous artery'.
