Muscles that Move the Arm01:31

Muscles that Move the Arm

3.2K
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...

Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Anatomy

Background:

  • Subscapularis tears are more prevalent than previously understood.
  • The subscapularis muscle is crucial for overall shoulder function and stability.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To highlight the incidence and importance of subscapularis tears.
  • To review current and historical surgical repair methods.
  • To discuss reconstructive options for irreparable tears.

Main Methods:

  • Review of historical and recent surgical approaches for subscapularis tears.
  • Analysis of outcomes for open versus arthroscopic repair techniques.
  • Evaluation of reconstructive strategies for irreparable subscapularis lesions.

Main Results:

  • Full-thickness subscapularis tears warrant surgical consideration for repair.
  • Both deltopectoral (open) and arthroscopic approaches have demonstrated successful outcomes.
  • Various reconstructive options are available for irreparable tears, with ongoing advancements.

Conclusions:

  • Prompt repair of full-thickness subscapularis tears is recommended.
  • Arthroscopic techniques offer comparable results to traditional open repairs.
  • Evolving reconstructive procedures provide alternatives for irreparable subscapularis tears.
