Muscles of the Shoulder01:23

Muscles of the Shoulder

9.5K
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...

Muscles that Move the Head01:19

Muscles that Move the Head

6.6K
The muscles that move the head are a dynamic and complex group of structures that work together to facilitate a wide range of head movements, including rotation, flexion, extension, and lateral bending.
The bilateral sternocleidomastoid, or SCM, and the suprahyoid and infrahyoid muscles are significant head flexors. The SCM muscles originate at the sternum and clavicle and attach to the mastoid process of the temporal bone. The SCM contracts bilaterally to bend the head forward, whereas...

The Thoracic Cage: Sternum01:17

The Thoracic Cage: Sternum

9.4K
The thoracic or rib cage forms the body's thorax (chest) portion. Its primary function in the body is to protect vital organs in the thoracic cavity, such as the heart and the lungs. It consists of 12 pairs of ribs with their costal cartilages and the sternum. The ribs are anchored posteriorly to the 12 thoracic vertebrae (T1-T12).
The sternum is the elongated bony structure on the anterior side of the thoracic cage. It consists of three parts: the manubrium, the body, and the xiphoid...

Flail Chest-II01:26

Flail Chest-II

812
Managing flail chest, a condition characterized by a segment of the chest wall moving independently from the rest of the thoracic cage, requires a comprehensive approach. It includes a thorough assessment of the patient's condition, a diagnostic evaluation to determine the extent of the injury, and the implementation of appropriate medical interventions tailored to the individual's needs.

Flail Chest-I

Overview of Flail Chest
Flail chest is a severe and potentially life-threatening condition characterized by the fracture of three or more adjacent ribs in multiple places. It is most commonly caused by direct impacts and trauma, such as motor vehicle accidents or injuries from a steering wheel impact. It can also occur due to falls in elderly individuals with osteoporosis, or assaults involving sharp objects.
Pathophysiology
The pathophysiology of flail chest is complex, involving fractures of...

Overview of the Axial Skeleton01:09

Overview of the Axial Skeleton

13.2K
The skeleton is subdivided into two major divisions—the axial skeleton and the appendicular skeleton. The axial skeleton forms the vertical, central axis of the body. It includes all of the bones of the head, neck, chest, and back. It protects the brain, spinal cord, heart, and lungs. It also serves as the attachment site for muscles that move the head, neck, and back and for muscles that act across the shoulder and hip joints to move their corresponding limbs.
The axial skeleton of the...

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Sports Medicine
    • Traumatology

    Background:

    • Sternoclavicular (SC) dislocations are rare but serious traumatic injuries.
    • Posterior SC dislocations are less common than anterior types and pose risks of severe complications.
    • Professional athletes, like jockeys, are susceptible to complex joint injuries.

    Observation:

    • A professional horse jockey presented with chronic, bilateral posterior sternoclavicular dislocations.
    • The patient experienced significant discomfort and functional impairment due to the dislocations.
    • The injury involved the joint connecting the sternum and clavicle, impacting the upper torso.

    Findings:

    • The patient's posterior sternoclavicular dislocations were managed surgically.
    • Surgical intervention involved excision of the medial end of the clavicle on the symptomatic side.
    • This treatment aimed to alleviate pain and restore function in the affected shoulder girdle.

    Implications:

    • Surgical management, such as clavicle excision, can be effective for chronic posterior sternoclavicular dislocations.
    • Prompt and thorough evaluation is crucial to prevent serious complications associated with posterior SC dislocations.
    • Understanding these injuries is vital for athletes and sports medicine professionals to ensure appropriate care and outcomes.
