Muscles that Move the Arm01:31

Muscles that Move the Arm

5.5K
Nine muscles are involved in arm movements. Two of these, the pectoralis major and latissimus dorsi, originate from the axial skeleton and are called axial muscles. The other seven originate from the scapula and are called the scapular muscles.
The pectoralis major has two origins. Its clavicular head originates on the medial half of the clavicle. In contrast, the sternocostal head originates on the costal cartilages of ribs 1-6, the sternum, and the aponeurosis of the external oblique of the...

Muscles of the Shoulder

9.4K
The muscles surrounding the shoulder girdle, including the clavicle and scapula, primarily stabilize the scapula. This stable base allows other muscles to move the humerus effectively. Scapular movements often mirror those of the humerus and extend its range of motion. For instance, raising the arm above the head would not be feasible without simultaneous upward rotation of the scapula.
Anterior Thoracic Muscles
The anterior thoracic muscles include the serratus anterior, subclavius, and...

    Summary
    This summary is machine-generated.

    Subscapularis tears, crucial for shoulder function, can be successfully repaired arthroscopically. While this minimally invasive technique shows promise, further research is needed to compare it with traditional open surgery for rotator cuff repair.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Sports Medicine
    • Shoulder Arthroscopy

    Background:

    • The subscapularis muscle is the largest rotator cuff muscle, vital for shoulder function.
    • Subscapularis tears are diagnosed via clinical evaluation and imaging.
    • Historically, open surgical repair was standard for subscapularis tears.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To review the technique and outcomes of all-arthroscopic subscapularis tear repair.
    • To highlight critical steps for successful arthroscopic subscapularis repair.
    • To identify areas for future research in subscapularis tear management.

    Main Methods:

    • Review of recent literature on all-arthroscopic subscapularis repair.
    • Description of key procedural steps for arthroscopic technique.
    • Analysis of reported functional and clinical outcomes.

    Main Results:

    • All-arthroscopic repair is a viable option for isolated subscapularis tears.
    • Successful outcomes are linked to meticulous adherence to surgical steps.
    • Excellent functional and clinical results have been reported.

    Conclusions:

    • Arthroscopic repair offers a minimally invasive approach for subscapularis tears.
    • Further comparative studies are required to determine superiority over open repair.
    • Optimal management strategies for subscapularis tears continue to evolve.
