Upper Limbs 1 Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy Series 16/01/2023 Presented By Phase1c StudentThe pectoral region What are the muscles of the pectoral region and their function? Pectoralis major • Adducts, internal rotation and flexion of the arm • Innervated by lateral and medial pectoral nerves Pectoralis minor • Limited function (depress shoulder/elevated ribs 3-5) • Innervated by lateral and medial pectoral nerves Subclavius • Stabilizes clavicle during movements of shoulder • Innervated by nerve to subclavius (from brachial plexus) Serratus anterior • Holds scapula against the chest wall • Innervated by long thoracic nerve Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy SeriesThe pectoral region Clinical Relevance: Winging of the Scapula One of the actions of the serratus anterior is to ‘hold’ the scapula against the ribcage. If the long thoracic nerve is damaged (and the serratus anterior therefore paralysed), protrudes out of the back. It is said to have a ‘winged’ appearance.

Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy SeriesAnswer: Long thoracic nerve Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy SeriesThe (upper) arm Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy SeriesBrachial Plexus Anterior Rami • The brachial plexus is a network of nerve fibres that supplies Spinal the skin and musculature of the upper limb. It begins in the Cord root of the neck, passes through the axilla, and runs through the entire upper extremity. • The plexus is formed by the anterior rami of cervical spinal Posterior Rami nerves C5, C6, C7 and C8, and the first thoracic spinal nerve, T1. • Function: Provide motor & sensory innervation of upper limbs. However, there are EXCEPTIONS of Trapezius muscle Spinal cord in transverse/horizontal plane Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy Series Brachial Plexus C5 C6 Anatomy C7 C8 T1 REVISION TIP ROOTS Read Roots That Trunks TRUNKS Damn Divisions Cadaver Cords Book Branches DIVISIONS CORDS t r DCB- reverse- alphabetical order xa A Think of a TREE!

If you find this, you’ll be able to identify the rest of the features of the Brachial Plexus. Anterior view of Brachial Plexus Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy SeriesThe (upper) arm Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy SeriesBrachial Plexus Anatomy are:2 main groups of nerve branches from the Brachial Plexus • Supraclavicular: from the roots and trunks e.g. Dorsal Scapular nerve, long thoracic nerve • Infraclavicular: from the cords & terminal branches e.g. superior scapular nerve, thoracodorsal nerve, medial pectoral and the 5 peripheral/terminal nerves Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy Series Medial Cord Posterior Cord Lateral Cord Trunks Roots Medial Pectoral N Superior Lateral Pectoral N (C) Subclavian N Dorsal scapular (C) Subscapular N (C) (T) nerve (R) Cutaneous N of Thoracodorsal N Musculocutaneous N Suprascapular Long thoracic Arm (C) (C) (TB) N (T) nerve (R) Cutaneous N of Inferior Forearm (C) Subscapular N (C) Axillary N (C) Radial N (TB) Surgical Society | Junior Anatomy SeriesQuestion: What comes after trunks in the anatomy of brachial plexus?
