Topic: Anconeus muscle


In the News (Wed 30 Dec 09)

  
  Anconeus muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The anconeus muscle is a small muscle on the posterior aspect of the elbow joint.

 Subscapularis muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Subscapularis is a large triangular muscle which fills the subscapular fossa, and arises from its medial two-thirds and from the lower two-thirds of the groove on the axillary border of the bone.
Some fibers arise from tendinous laminæ which intersect the muscle and are attached to ridges on the bone; others from an aponeurosis, which separates the muscle from the Teres major and the long head of the Triceps brachii.
The tendon of the muscle is separated from the neck of the scapula by a large bursa, which communicates with the cavity of the shoulder-joint through an aperture in the capsule.

 Muscles of the Arm
The anconeus muscle is located chiefly in the forearm, but it is described with the brachial muscles because it is morphologically and functionally related to the triceps brachii muscle.
This is a flattened, fusiform muscle that lies posterior to the biceps brachii.
This is an elongated, narrow muscle in the superomedial part of the arm and is important mainly as a landmark (e.g., the musculocutaneous nerve pierces it).

 Arm
The elbow joint is the hinge joint between the distal end of the humerus and the proximal ends of the radius and ulna.
The muscles of this compartment are the triceps brachii and anconeus muscle.
The artery is in between the median nerve and the tendon of the biceps muscle in the cubital fossa.

 Pectoralis major muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Superficial muscles of the chest and front of the arm.
Sternocostal head: anterior surface of the sternum, the superior six costal cartilages, and the aponeurosis of the external oblique muscle.
The Pectoralis major is a thick, fan-shaped muscle, situated at the upper front (anterior) of the chest wall.

 Muscles of the Forearm
This group of muscles arises from or in line with the medial epicondyle of the humerus, which is known as the common flexor attachment.
The superficial flexor muscles all arise from a common tendon attached to the medial epicondyle of the humerus, known as the common flexor attachment.
The remaining nine muscles are all extensors and are all innervated by the radial nerve.

During the physical examination, the athlete referred mild pain and oedema was visible during resisted contraction of the forearm muscles.
The intracompartmental pressure of the flexor-pronator muscle group at rest was 95mmHg, with normal blood pressure of 135/85mmHg observed in both arms.
Because of the two-month history of pain and tenderness in the area, the anconeus muscle compartment was released surgically.

 anconeus
The anconeus muscle is a small muscle on the posterior surface of the elbow.
There are suggestions that this muscle is embryologically the fourth head of the triceps brachii muscle.
It runs from the lateral epicondyle of the humerus proximally to the lateral surface of the olecranon process and the superior part of the posterior ulna distally.

 Human Kinetics
The main function of the upper-arm muscles is flexion and extension of the elbow joint.
The biceps group actually comprises four muscles that flex the arm at the elbow joint: the biceps brachii, brachialis, brachioradialis, and pronator teres.
As is true with other muscles, training those of the upper arm for a specified sport entails matching the specific positions the body is placed in and being cross-specific.

 Triceps Muscles and Extensors of the Forearms
The extensors of the forearms are a group of two muscles located in the posterior arm region on both sides of the body.
The triceps muscle is suppled by the radial nerve (C6, C7 and C8) which is a branch from the musculo-spiral nerve and the anconeus muscle is also supplied by the radial nerve (C7, C8 and T1) which too is a branch from the musculo-spiral nerve.
The triceps and anconues muscles main function is to extend the forearm.
