  • Scapular Winging Is a Rare Disorder Often Caused by Neuromuscular Imbalance in the Scapulothoracic Stabilizer Muscles
    SCAPULAR WINGING Scapular winging is a rare disorder often caused by neuromuscular imbalance in the scapulothoracic stabilizer muscles. Lesions of the long thoracic nerve and spinal accessory nerves are the most common cause. Patients report diffuse neck, shoulder girdle, and upper back pain, which may be debilitating, associated with abduction and overhead activities. Accurate diagnosis and detection depend on appreciation on comprehensive physical examination. Although most cases resolve nonsurgically, surgical treatment of scapular winging has been met with success. True incidence is largely unknown because of under diagnosis. Most commonly it is categorized anatomically as medial or lateral shift of the inferior angle of the scapula. Primary winging occurs when muscular weakness disrupts the normal balance of the scapulothoracic complex. Secondary winging occurs when pathology of the shoulder joint pathology. Delay in diagnosis may lead to traction brachial plexopathy, periscapular muscle spasm, frozen shoulder, subacromial impingement, and thoracic outlet syndrome. Anatomy and Biomechanics Scapula is rotated 30° anterior on the chest wall; 20° forward in the sagittal plane; the inferior angle is tilted 3° upward. It serves as the attachment site for 17 muscles. The trapezius muscle accomplishes elevation of the scapula in the cranio-caudal axis and upward rotation. The serratus anterior and pectoralis major and minor muscles produce anterior and lateral motion, described as scapular protraction. Normal Scapulothoracic abduction: As the limb is elevated, the effect is an upward and lateral rotation of the inferior pole of scapula. Periscapular weakness resulting from overuse may manifest as scapular dysfunction (ie, winging). Serratus Anterior Muscle Origin From the first 9 ribs Insert The medial border of the scapula.

Shoulder muscle strength is thought to be one factor that aects functional outcome. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between shoulder muscle strength and the Functional Independence Measure (FIM) motor score among 14 complete C6 tetraplegic patients. The FIM motor score and American Spinal Injury Association (ASIA) motor score of these patients were assessed upon discharge. We evaluated muscle strength of bilateral scapular abduction and upward rotation, shoulder vertical adduction and shoulder extension by manual muscle testing (MMT). The total shoulder strength score was calculated from the summation of those six MMT scores. The relationships among ASIA motor score, total shoulder strength score and FIM motor score were analyzed. The total shoulder strength score was signi®cantly correlated with the FIM motor score and the score of the transfer item in the FIM. In the transfer item of the FIM, the total shoulder strength score showed a statistically signi®cant dierence between the Independent and Dependent Group.

This is an open-access article distributed under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution Non-Commercial License, which permits unrestricted non-commercial use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited. ABSTRACT Axillary arch muscle or the Langer’s muscle is one of the rare muscular variation in the axillary region. It is the additional muscle slip extending from latissimus dorsi in the posterior fold of axilla to the pectoralis major or other neighbouring muscles and bones. In the present article a case of 68 yrs old female cadaver with axillary arch in the left axillary region is reported. It originated from the anterior border of lattissimus dorsi and merged with the short head of biceps and pectoralis major muscles. The arch was compressing the axillary vein as well as the branches of the cords of brachial plexus. The presence of the muscle has important clinical implications, as the position, unilateral presence, axillary vein entrapment, multiple insertions makes the case most complicated.

Abstract: Variations in the structures at the root of neck are important in understanding many clinical and surgical conditions. Scalenus anterior, the key muscle in the neck, usually related to the roots of brachial plexus in its posterior aspect. This study was designed to evaluate the relations of roots of brachial plexus to the scalene muscles. Posterior triangles of neck on both sides were studied in 24 cadavers. In two cases C5 and C6 pierced scalenus anterior muscle and emerged from its anterior surface. In other specimen roots of C5, C6 and C7 entered scalenus muscle and exited anterolateraly in a sequential manner. Knowledge of such variations is important for anaesthetists and surgeons. Key words: Scalenus anterior; Scalenus medius; roots of brachial plexus; variations I. Introduction Brachial plexus is formed by union of ventral rami of lower four cervical nerves and first thoracic nerve.

  • The Structure and Movement of Clarinet Playing D.M.A
    The Structure and Movement of Clarinet Playing D.M.A. DOCUMENT Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Musical Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Sheri Lynn Rolf, M.D. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2018 D.M.A. Document Committee: Dr. Caroline A. Hartig, Chair Dr. David Hedgecoth Professor Katherine Borst Jones Dr. Scott McCoy Copyrighted by Sheri Lynn Rolf, M.D. 2018 Abstract The clarinet is a complex instrument that blends wood, metal, and air to create some of the world’s most beautiful sounds. Its most intricate component, however, is the human who is playing it. While the clarinet has 24 tone holes and 17 or 18 keys, the human body has 205 bones, around 700 muscles, and nearly 45 miles of nerves. A seemingly endless number of exercises and etudes are available to improve technique, but almost no one comments on how to best use the body in order to utilize these studies to maximum effect while preventing injury. The purpose of this study is to elucidate the interactions of the clarinet with the body of the person playing it. Emphasis will be placed upon the musculoskeletal system, recognizing that playing the clarinet is an activity that ultimately involves the entire body. Aspects of the skeletal system as they relate to playing the clarinet will be described, beginning with the axial skeleton. The extremities and their musculoskeletal relationships to the clarinet will then be discussed. The muscles responsible for the fine coordinated movements required for successful performance on the clarinet will be described.
