Overview of Upper limb 1. Regions 2. Bones Upper limb 4. Muscles of forearm & 3. Muscles of arm & its relation with their role in Carpal tunnel syndrome movements of upper limb 5. Cubital fossa & brachial artery 1. Regions of upper limb 2. Bones of Upper limb 3. Muscles of upper limb & their role in movements of arm Muscles involve in MOVEMENT OF ARM FLEXION EXTENSION. ABDUCTION. ADDUCTION Rotator cuff muscles Deltoid Deltoid Deltoid* Triceps brachii Coracobrachialis Latissmus dorsi Supraspinatus Muscles of posterior wall of axilla Pectoralis major Pectoralis major 3. Muscles of upper limb & their role in movements of forearm Muscles involve in MOVEMENT OF FOREARM FLEXION EXTENSION. Biseps brachii Triceps brachii Brachialis Biseps brachii O: coracoid process (for its short head), supraglenoid tubercle (long head), I : radial tuberosity , bicipital aponeurosis N: musculocutaneous n. A: Flex forearm at elbow joint. Flex arm at shoulder joint Flex forearm at elbow joint Deltoid Pectoralis major Flexion of arm Adduction of arm Triseps brachii Extension of forearm (*main extensor of forearm), Adduction of arm. Muscles of post wall of axilla Adduction of arm Extend arm Muscles of posterior wall of axilla (will be covered more detail in lecture Axilla) Muscles of forearm Muscles of anterior Muscles of posterior compartment compartment - Superficial mm* -superficial mm - Deep mm* - Deep mm carpal tunnel contains tendons from the following mm: - flexor pollicis longus, - flexor digitorum profundus. Deep mm of ant compartment of forearm* - flexor digitorum superficialis - Superficial mm of ant compartment of forearm* awkward postures or repetitive hand movements tendons in carpal tunnel can become irritated & inflamed Swelling of the tendons Compress the median nerve Pain at the wrist region.
