    RADIOULNAR JOINTS The radius and ulna articulate by – • Synovial 1. Superior radioulnar joint 2. Inferior radioulnar joint • Non synovial Middle radioulnar union Superior Radioulnar Joint This articulation is a trochoid or pivot-joint between • the circumference of the head of the radius • ring formed by the radial notch of the ulna and the annular ligament. The Annular Ligament (orbicular ligament) This ligament is a strong band of fibers, which encircles the head of the radius, and retains it in contact with the radial notch of the ulna. It forms about four-fifths of the osseo- fibrous ring, and is attached to the anterior and posterior margins of the radial notch a few of its lower fibers are continued around below the cavity and form at this level a complete fibrous ring. Its upper border blends with the capsule of elbow joint while from its lower border a thin loose synovial membrane passes to be attached to the neck of the radius The superficial surface of the annular ligament is strengthened by the radial collateral ligament of the elbow, and affords origin to part of the Supinator. Its deep surface is smooth, and lined by synovial membrane, which is continuous with that of the elbow-joint. Quadrate ligament A thickened band which extends from the inferior border of the annular ligament below the radial notch to the neck of the radius is known as the quadrate ligament. Movements The movements allowed in this articulation are limited to rotatory movements of the head of the radius within the ring formed by the annular ligament and the radial notch of the ulna • rotation forward being called pronation • rotation backward, supination Middle Radioulnar Union The shafts of the radius and ulna are connected by Oblique Cord and Interosseous Membrane The Oblique Cord (oblique ligament) The oblique cord is a small, flattened band, extending downward and laterally, from the lateral side of the ulnar tuberosity to the radius a little below the radial tuberosity.

  • Muscle Charts: Students Should Be Able to Identify All Muscles Listed on the Daily Lab Pages
    Using the Muscle Charts: Students should be able to identify all muscles listed on the daily lab pages. In addition to identification you will be required to know more information about some muscle and muscle groups. Use the key below as a guide. Any box on the muscle chart requires you to know all the information (e.g. action, origin, insertion and innervation) provided. Areas shaded in green require muscle identification and a general sense of the location of the origin or insertion.

  • A Patient's Guide to Biceps Tendon Tears at the Elbow
    A Patient’s Guide to Biceps Tendon Tears at the Elbow Introduction The muscles which flex the elbow are the bicep complex. Like all musculoskeletal units, the end connection is a tendon composed of strong, sinewy fibrous tissue. The long head of the biceps is located in the midportion of the front of the arm. Bicep tears occur most commonly in the shoulder and often require no treatment. Less commonly, the long head of the bicep tears at the elbow. These tears cause weakness both in elbow flexion, but more importantly in turning the palm up. Patients notice this weakness in turning a door knob or working a screwdriver. Bicep tears at the elbow occur much more commonly in men rather than women. Weakness after a tear at the elbow persists because the tendon retracts due to the muscular contraction. This results in the tendon scarring into a non-anatomic position resulting in permanent weakness. The long head of the bicep provides approximately 15% of elbow bending power—so many patients will not notice this change. However, it deploys approximately 50% of the power to turn the palm up and most patients will demonstrate a functional deficit. Because of this loss in power in turning the palm up, most patents will opt for surgical management. Surgical management can restore power both for elbow flexion and turning the palm up. Anatomy of the Distal Biceps The bicep muscle is one of few muscles that span two joints. The muscle originates above the shoulder and inserts into the tuberosity of the radius.
