100

What are the three segments of the UCL.

Anterior, posterior, transverse

100

Name atleast two of the three groups of intrinsic hand muscles. Also, name a muscle from each group you named

Thenar: Opponens pollicis, abductor pollicis brevis, flexor pollicis brevis, adductor pollicis

Hypothenar: Opponens digit minimi, flexor digiti minimi, abductor digiti minimi

Metacarpal: Palmar interossei, dorsal interossei, lumbricals


100

Name a group of muscles in the neck and the muscles it contains

im not writing this

200

Name an entire group of intrinsic back muscles and list the action of one muscle

I aint writing all that

200

Write down as many ligaments around the SC and AC joints as you can. If someone else can come up with more they will steal the points. You have 60 seconds

SC: interclavicular, ant/post sternoclavicular, costoclavicular

AC: Acromioclavicular, coracoacromial, coracoclavicular (conoid and trapezoid)

200

Name any muscle located in the forearm and its origin, insertion, action and innervation

yup

200

Name the carpal bones in order and differentiate when a new row begins

Proximal: scaphoid, lunate, triquetrum, pisiform

Distal: trapezium, trapezoid, capitate and hamate

200

Name any anterior neck triangle, its borders and its contents

bruh moment

300

List atleast three of the four parts of any synovial joint and atleast three types of synovial joints

Parts: fibrous capsule, synovial membrane, joint cavity(fluid), articular cartilage

Types: Ball and socket, plane, hinge, conyloid, ellipsoid, pivot, saddle


300

Name atleast 3 of the 4 structures found inside the cubital fossa.

Median nerve

Brachial artery - splitting into radial and ulnar

Tendon of the biceps

Radial nerve

300

Name atleast three joints that could be considered inside the the forearm region

Proximal, middle or distal radioulnar joints

Humeroradial and humeroulnar joints

300

Write down the origin, insertion, action and innvervation of the lumbrical muscles. If another player provides more detail they will steal the points for this round.

Origin: FDP tendon

Insertion: DDE 2-5

Action: MCP flexion, DIP/PIP extension

Innervation: 1/2 median, 3/4 ulnar

300

Describe the path of the vertebral artery

Arises from the subclavian artery and travels upwards through the vertebral foramina. At C1/atlas, it makes a sharp turn where it travels under the suboccipital triangle and pierces the atlantoccipital membrane. It enters the vertebral foramen through the groove for vertebral artery and then travel upwards until both merge to form the basilar artery.

400

What is the difference between extrinsic and intrinsic back muscles. Also, name two of each

Intrinsic muscles are located in the back and act within it. Extrinsic muscles are located in the back but act on another area of the body.

Extrinsic: Delt, Lat, teres major, trap, rhomboids, levator scap

Intrinsic: muscle from superficial, intermediate or deep groups.

400

List the different parts of EITHER the trapezius or deltoid muscle and the actions of each.

Trapezius

Upper: head ext/lat flex, shoulder up rot, elevation, retraction

Middle:retraction (slight upward rotation)

Lower: Depression, retraction, upward rotation

Deltoid

Ant: int rot, flexion, add

Mid: Abd

Post: ext rot, add, ext

400

Describe the path and branches of the radial nerve.

Exits brachial plexus and innervates the triceps group. Innervates the radialis group before passing through the cubital fossa. Splits into radial superficial nerve and posterior interosseous before passing through the supinator.

400

Where do the arterial arches of the hand get their blood from. Discuss atleast two of three arches

Superficial palmar arch - Ulnar artery, and superficial radial branch

Deep palmar arch - radial artery, and deep ulnar branch

Dorsal carpal arch: ant/post interosseous

400

What are the borders and contents of the suboccipital triangle

Borders: obliquus capitis superior and inferior, rectus capitis posterior major.

Contents: suboccipital nerve and vertebral artery

500

How can you differentiate vertebrae in different levels (cervical, thoracic, lumbar). Provide atleast one example for each level.

Cervical: transverse foramen

Thoracic: Heart shaped bodies

Lumbar: largest bodies, mamillary processes

All: Orientation or articular facets

500

If the proximal axillary artery was damaged, name atleast two pathways of anastomotic circulation that could be used to supply blood to the brachial artery.

thyrocervical trunk into:

1: suprascapular - ant/post humeral circumflex - brachial

2: suprascapular- circumflex scap- subscapular - brachial

3: Transverse cervical - dorsal scap - thoracodorsal or circumflex scap - subscap - brachial

500

What are the symptoms of a claw hand and what causes it?

Slightly extended MCP and slightly flexed PIP/DIP. Distal ulnar nerve injury affecting lumbricals 1 and 2. FDP remains intact

500

Describe the TFCC anatomy and physiology in as much detail as you can. (this is complicated so I will decide if the answer is enough)

Anatomy: ulnocarpal disc, ulnocarpal meniscus homologue ligament, ulnar collateral ligament. Located between ulna and carpals (part or radiocarpal joint)

Physiology: Ulna too short to directly articulate with carpals so this takes up the space. Allows for more ulnar deviation and is useful in weight bearing.

500

List all of the cranial nerves and a detail about them (origin, foramen they exit through, function, motor/sensory/both etc)
