	Coracobrachialis muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Pectoralis major and minor muscles have been in large part removed; their attachments have been reflected.
		The Coracobrachialis is the smallest of the three muscles that attach to the coracoid process of the scapula.
		(The other two muscles are the pectoralis minor and the biceps brachii.) It is situated at the upper and medial part of the arm.

	glossary
		Muscle of the dorsal and lateal aspects of the neck and acts to raise the scapula.
		Large muscle of the upper chest wall that acts at the shoulder and connects the clavicle, the sternum, the cartileges of the second to the sixth ribs to the greater tubercle of the humerus.
		Muscle which acts to flex and laterally rotate the thigh and to flex and laterally bend the spine originating from the lumbar vertebrae and inserting at the lesser trochanter of the femur.

		It pierces the Coracobrachialis muscle and passes obliquely between the Biceps brachii and the Brachialis, to the lateral side of the arm; a little above the elbow it pierces the deep fascia lateral to the tendon of the Biceps brachii and is continued into the forearm as the lateral antibrachial cutaneous nerve.
		The branch to the Coracobrachialis is given off from the nerve close to its origin, and in some instances as a separate filament from the lateral cord of the plexus; it is derived from the seventh, cervical nerve.
		The branch for the latter muscle is a long, slender filament, which descends in the substance of the medial head of the Triceps brachii.

	The Humerus
		The tendon twists as it is attached to the posterior surface of the tuberosity.
		The nerve pierces the coracobrachialis muscle to lie on the deep surface of nbiceps, between biceps and brachialis in the lower arm.
		The brachialis muscle arises deep to biceps from the lower half of the anterior surface of the humerus and from the intermuscular septa.

	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).

	Body of humerus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Its upper part is a prominent ridge, the crest of the greater tubercle; it serves for the insertion of the tendon of the pectoralis major muscle.
		Its upper half is rounded and indistinctly marked, serving for the attachment of the lower part of the insertion of the teres minor muscle, and below this giving origin to the lateral head of the triceps brachii muscle; its center is traversed by a broad but shallow oblique depression, the spiral groove (musculospiral groove).
		About its center is a slight impression for the insertion of the coracobrachialis muscle, and just below this is the entrance of the nutrient canal, directed downward; sometimes there is a second nutrient canal at the commencement of the radial sulcus.

	MUSCULAR BLEEDING ON THE UPPER ARM
		The function of two of the muscles, amongst other functions, is to bend the elbow joint (M biceps brachii, M brachialis), while the third muscle (M coracobrachialis) brings the arm towards the body (adduction).
		Treatment: The treatment involves relief and rehabilitation as with a rupture of a muscle on the front of the upper arm or rupture of a muscle on the back of the upper arm, depending on whether the bleeding is located on the front or the back of the upper arm.
		See therefore "rupture of muscle on the front of the upper arm" or "rupture of muscle on the back of the upper arm" depending on whether the bleeding is on the front or back of the upper arm.

	Arm
		The large deltoid muscle is considered to have part of its body in the anterior compartment.
		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.

	biology - Scapula
		The surface between the ridge and the axillary border is narrow in the upper two-thirds of its extent, and is crossed near its center by a groove for the passage of the scapular circumflex vessels; it affords attachment to the Teres minor.
		The spine is a prominent plate of bone, which crosses obliquely the medial four-fifths of the dorsal surface of the scapula at its upper part, and separates the supra- from the infraspinatous fossa.
		Of the three borders, the anterior is attached to the dorsal surface of the bone; the posterior, or crest of the spine, is broad, and presents two lips and an intervening rough interval.

		Muscle C is the subscapularis muscle, and is innervated by subscapular nerves.
		Muscle D is the teres major muscle, and like the teres minor and deltoideus muscles, it is innervated by the axillary nerve and acts to flex the shoulder.

	Pectoralis major muscle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		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.
		It makes up the bulk of the chest muscles in the male and lies under the breast in the female.

	Muscles Defined (image heavy) - Polykarbon Art Forum
		The coracobrachialis muscle is a synergist or 'helper' for the pectoralis major, assisting it in its job to move the arm.
		The majority of the coracobrachialis muscle is hidden under the biceps brachii and triceps brachii, but you can see it as it passes from the middle of the humerus and wraps around to the coracoid process of the shoulder blade, near the shoulder.
		The Brachioradialis muscle runs from the outside edge of the humerus near the elbow, and it goes all the way to the end of the radius, attaching to the outer aspect of the end.

		The muscles responsible for these movements, their nerve supply and vascular supply are contained within the compartments of the arm.
		Muscles in the former compartment flex the elbow joint and are involved in supination of the proximal radioulnar joint.
		Muscles in the former compartment pronate the radioulnar joints, flex the wrist and also flex the digits.

	RUPTURE OF MUSCLE ON THE FRONT OF THE UPPER ARM
		Two of the muscles bend the elbow joint (M biceps brachii, M brachialis), while the third muscle (M coracobrachialis) brings the arm towards the body (adduction).
		In severe cases sudden shooting pains are felt in the muscle (“partial muscle rupture”, “pulled muscle”) and in the worst case a violent snap is felt, after which bending the elbow against resistance is severely reduced (“total muscle rupture”).
		With muscle injuries the following three symptoms are characteristic: pain upon applying pressure, stretching (stretch the elbow) and activation against resistance (bending the elbow).

		With the biceps brachii muscle reflected laterally, study the course of the musculocutaneous nerve through the arm.
		It serves as a key landmark because the musculocutaneous nerve passes through this muscle as it leaves the axilla and enters the arm.
		The musculocutaneous nerve [probe indicates branch to biceps brachii muscle] arises as a terminal branch of the lateral cord of the brachial plexus [ upper probe], pierces the coracobrachialis muscle, and passes distally between the biceps brachii muscle and brachialis muscle.

		It arises from the second and third cervical nerves, winds around the posterior border of the Sternocleidomastoideus, and, after perforating the deep fascia, ascends upon that muscle beneath the Platysma to the parotid gland, where it divides into an anterior and a posterior branch.
		The ascending branches (rami superiores) pass upward to the submaxillary region, and form a plexus with the cervical branch of the facial nerve beneath the Platysma; others pierce that muscle, and are distributed to the skin of the upper and front part of the neck.
		In the supraspinatous fossa it gives off two branches to the Supraspinatus muscle, and an articular filament to the shoulder-joint; and in the infraspinatous fossa it gives off two branches to the Infraspinatous muscle, besides some filaments to the shoulder-joint and scapula.
