IT APPEARS WHERE THE DELTOID STOPS. - bIceps brachII à a superfIcIal muscle, arIses from just beLow pec major and deLtoId. Crosses shouLder joInt and eLbow joInt. OrIgInates at the supragLenoId tubercLe AND coronoid process (hence two heads = “bIceps”). Goes down to the radIal tuberosIty. Under the BB sIt the coracobrachIalIs (shoulder joint mover) + brachIalIs (eLbow joInt mover) + brachIoradIalIs (elbow joint mover). - brachIoradIalIs à origin on the Lateral, anterIor sIde of the humerus (sImILar poInt to brachIalIs), then moves STRAIGHT down radIus (no dIagonal movement) to attach way down In the radIal styLoId process. Easy because sits exactly between triceps brachii and brachialis and is very long. - pronator teres à crosses dIagonalLY from medIal to Lateral on the anterIor sIde of the arm, and has two heads. One attaches to JUST above the medIal epIcondYLe, the other attaches to the medIal sIde of the coranoid process à then crosses obLIqueLY (more dIagonalLY than pronator quadratus) to Insert Into the Lateral sIde of the radIus, just dIstal to the supInator Insertion. ELbow extensIon: - trIceps brachII (TB) à quIte wIde and fat, can actualLY see Its medIal and Lateral heads from the anterIor sIde - pokIng out from behInd the big biceps brachII (BB), mostlY In top area. Don’t confuse wIth coracobrachIalIs or brachIalIs In anterIor vIew – look for origins as cLues à coracobrachIalIs orIgInates at the coracoId process and Lodges down quIte quIckLY to anterIor sIde of humerus, brachIalIs Is a teardrop-shaped muscLe that sIts under BB – starts halfway down humerus on Lateral sIde then crosses over to Insert Into the uLnar tuberosIty. The Long head of the TB orIgInates from the InfragLenoId tuberosIty. Its two other heads orIgInate from the Lateral/medIal posterIor sIde of the humerus. TheY joInt to Insert Into the oLecranon. - anconeus – short muscLe on posterIor sIde, crosses obLIqueLY down from Its tinY orIgIn Lateral epIcondYLe of the humerus to the top of the uLnar (becomes wIde at base, quIte a wIde Insertion). Movements - pronation around RU joInt - supInation (both superior + inferior) MuscLes movIng Pronation: RU joInt (move - pronator teres à see prevIous descrIption. 3 forearm & hand - pronator quadratus à attaches to the dIstal end of the uLna, then moves wIth It) dIagonalLY down (onLY at a sLIght angLe) to Insert Into the dIstal end of the radIus. SupInation: - supInator à anterIor and posterIor. Two heads. One Is at the medIal, posterIor sIde of the uLna, the other Is at the Lateral epIcondYLe of the humerus. TheY converge on the posterIor sIde then wrap around SLIGHTLY to Insert Into the Lateral sIde of the radIus. - bIceps brachII à see prevIous descrIption Movements of the - fLexIon and extensIon hand and wrIst - adduction and abduction MuscLes In - superfIcIal forearm fLexors ARISE AS A GROUP from the medIal epIcondYLe anterIor (anterIor surface) compartment of - deep forearm fLexors arIse from the anterIor Interosseous membrane forearm - the IntermedIate Layer LIes In between. - The deep Layer LIe In contact wIth the radIus and uLna. SuperfIcIal: - fLexor carpI radIalIs (ends on radIal sIde) – fLexes and abducts wrIst - palmarIs Longus (Inserts Into palm area just beLow fIngers) – flexes wrist - fLexor carpI uLnarIs (ends on uLnar sIde – at pIsIform bone) – fLexes and adducts wrIst. - End in the metacarpal region. IntermedIate: - fLexor dIgItorIum superfIcIalIs (fLexes mIddLe and proxImal phalanges of fingers, spLIts In half to Let profundus through and attaches to eIther sIde of mIddLe phalanges on anterIor surface)) and may fLex wrIst. - LOOK VERY CAREFULLY FOR THE SPLIT. End at middle phalanges. Deep: - fLexor dIgItorIum profundus (fLexes phalanges of fIngers – goes to dIstal phalanges, may also fLex wrIst) - flexor pollicis longus (fLexes phalanges of thumb). - End at distal phalanges. ** fLexor dIgItorIum profundus and fLexor dIgItorIum superfIcIalIs work together to flex fingers MuscLes In - some forearm extensors attach to Lateral epIcondYLe posterIor - onLY to be IdentifIed as a group compartment of - have superfIcIal (orIgIn = Lateral epIcondYLe and supracondYLoId rIdge of forearm humerus) and deep (orIgIn R and U) extensors - Intra-articuLar dIsc 4 COMPARATIVE ELBOW AND DISTAL HUMERUS (LECTURE 8) Elbow Use: - Humans: o Manipulation: Set of elbow makes it perfect for this – places hand in position ideal for manipulation o Non-weight-supporting mostly o Key in throwing (except in cricket) - Apes: o Supports weight during locomotion – climbing, suspension and brachiation or in fist walking (orangutan) or knuckle walking (chimp and gorilla – weight supported on middle phalanges and elbow held straight) Apes vs. Humans: Structural Similarities and Differences in the DISTAL HUMERUS AND ELBOW Similarities (when compared to a quadruped) – - Wider trochlea in humans and apes than quadrupeds; in quadrupeds the arm does not pronate/supinate (can only flex and extend) - Large lateral trochlear ridge in humans and apes ** both of the structural features above contribute to stability between humerus and ulna AND frees up the radius for pronation/supination in a variety of elbow postures - Humans and apes share a large amount of extension in their elbow joints compared to other animals, including monkeys. Overall the upper limb is more similar between apes and humans than it is different. Differences – Feature Structural comparison Functional Significance Humerus - capitulum Faces more posteriorly in apes, can see Allows more hyperextension and a greater arc of movement in apes it from a posterior angle In humans faces more anteriorly Humerus – lateral In apes, the lateral epicondyle is higher Allows greater LEVER advantage of extensors of wrist and fingers epicondyle and up on the humerus and more (remember they attach to ridge and lateral epicondyle) supracondylar ridge developed Apes also have a strong supracondylar ridge 5 Humerus – trochlear Apes have a more strongly developed
