Transcript

  1. Cubital fossa Site: Infront elbow joint and upper 1/3 of

    forearm. Shape: inverted triangular depression.
  2. Pronator teres Brachio-radialis Imaginary line between 2 epicondyles Apex is

    the overlap of brachio- radialis m. over pronator teres m. Lateral Medial
  3. Medial Lateral Basilic vein &medial cutaneous n of forearm Cephalic

    vein and lateral cutaneous n. of forearm Median cubital vein Bicipital aponeurosis Epitrochlear lymph nodes
  4. Tendon of biceps brachii m. Radial nerve Superficial radial nerve

    Deep radial nerve (posterior interosseous nerve) Brachial art. Median nerve Ulnar art. Radial art. Brachio-radialis (Reflected) Medial Lateral
  5. Pronator teres Flexor carpi radialis Palmaris longus Flexor carpi ulnaris

    Flexor digitorum superficialis (cut) Flexor digitorum profundus Flexor pollicis longus Pronator quadratus Flexor retinaculum Lumbricals Deep muscles of forearm Lateral Medial
  6. Flexor digitorum profundus Flexor pollicis longus Pronator quadratus Origin of

    flexor digitorum profundus Ulnar aponeurosis Origin of pronator quadratus Origin of flexor pollicis longus m. Insertion of pronator quadratus m. Interosseous membrane
  7. Interosseous membrane Flexor digitorum profundus from upper ¾ of anterior

    and medial surfaces of ulna (main origin) Flexor retinaculum Ulnar aponeurosis
  8. Action of flexor digitorum profundus • Flexes all joints of

    the medial four fingers. • Flexes the wrist. Nerve supply -Medial ½ from ulnar nerve. -Lateral ½ from anterior interosseous nerve (branch from median)
  9. Interosseous membrane Flexor retinaculum Flexor pollicis longus Tendon of flexor

    pollicis longus Upper 2/3 of anterior surface of radius Insertion to palmar aspect of distal phalanx of thumb
  10. Tendon of flexor carpi radialis Flexor retinaculum Tendon of flexor

    pollicis longus Tendons of flexor digitorum superficialis Tendons of flexor digitorum profundus
  11. Action of flexor pollicis longus • Flexes all joints of

    the thumb. • Assists in flexion of the wrist. Nerve supply -Anterior interosseous nerve (branch from median)
  12. Pronator Quadratus M. Origin: from oblique ridge on the lower

    ¼ of anterior surface of the shaft of ulna Insertion: into lower ¼ of anterior and medial surfaces of radius
  13. Action of pronator quadratus Pronation of forearm on radioulnar joints.

    Nerve supply -Anterior interosseous nerve (branch from median)
  14. Brachial artery Median nerve Median nerve in cubital fossa Bicipital

    aponeurosis Medial root from medial cord Lateral root from lateral cord 3rd part of axillary artery Median nerve crosses brachial artery at level of insertion of coraco- brachialis m. Lateral Medial
  15. Median nerve Humero-ulnar head of flexor digitorum superficialis Radial head

    of flexor digitorum superficialis Superficial head of pronator teres m. Median nerve Deep head of pronator teres m. Flexor retinaculum Lateral Medial
  16. Branches of Median N. At cubital fossa: -To pronator teres,

    flexor carpi radialis, palmaris longus and flexor digitorum superficialis. Between 2 heads of pronator teres m.: Anterior interosseous branch which supplies flexor pollicis longus, pronator quadratus and lateral ½ of flexor digitorum profundus.
  17. One inch Proximal to flexor retinaculum: -Palmar cutaneous branch. In

    the palm: ➢Gives muscular branches to thenar and 1st two lumbricals. ➢Cutaneous to palmar surfaces of lateral three and half fingers and their distal dorsal parts.
  18. Median nerve Palmar cutaneous branch of median nerve Flexor retinaculum

    Lateral division Medial division Recurrent branch
  19. Median nerve Palmar cutaneous branch of median nerve Flexor retinaculum

    Lateral division of median nerve Recurrent branch Medial division
  20. Contents of carpal tunnle Tendons of flexor digitorum superficialis Tendons

    of flexor digitorum profundus Tendon of flexor pollicis longus Median n. Dr. Sherif Fahmy
  21. Common synovial sheath around tendons of flexor digitorum muscles Contents

    of carpal tunnle Tendon of flexor pollicis longus with its synovial sheath (radial bursa) Median nerve
