Today and Wednesday – muscles!

• how muscles work – in general• muscles that move the mandible• abdominal wall muscles

• anterior and posterior• inferior and superior• inguinal hernia’s

• muscles that move the humerus and scapula• rotator cuff tears, impingement syndrome

• muscles that move the femur• sprains, strains and “Charley horse”

• muscles that move the foot• shin splints, anterior compartment syndrome• Achilles tendon injuries

Tendon

Deep fascia

EpimysiumEpi = upon, above

PerimysiumPeri = around

EndomysiumEndo = within

Connective tissue wrappings of skeletal muscle

Myo, mys = muscle

1 muscle fiber = 1 muscle cellMuscle cells are multinucleated

Muscle attachments

Ligaments: bone to boneTendons: muscle to bone

Direct vs Indirect attachment

Aponeurosis

Muscle to skinMuscle to muscle via tendon sheet

Synaptic vesiclescontaining Ach (acetylcholine)

Motor endplate

Calcium + ATP = muscle contractionLow blood Ca and muscle

Neurotoxins• botulism• curare• tetanus toxin

Neuromuscular junction

Attachments:• Proximal• Distal

• Direct• Indirect

Muscle actions:• agonist• antagonist• synergist• fixator

Biceps brachiiBrachialisTriceps brachii

Extending your knee

• Extend your knee a few times• Where are the agonist muscles that extend

your knee?• Which joint do they cross?• When you extend you knee, where are the

antagonist muscles located?

Quadriceps = agonists Hamstrings = antagonists

Mandibular fossa

1. Depress & elevate2. Medial & lateral excursion3. Protraction & retraction

Moving the mandible

Temporalis

Masseter

Rectus abdominus

External oblique

Those flashy “core” muscles

OverdevelopedPectoralis major

Rectus abdominis

External oblique

Internal oblique

Transversus abdominis

• Attachments• Actions

Muscles that move (and protect) the abdomen/trunk

D Rectus sheath(aponeurosis)

Linea alba

Abdominal wall• abdominal muscles• back muscles

• quadratus lumborum• Psoas (iliopsoas)

• diaphragm• pelvic diaphragm• “holes” in the wall

• hernia (hiatal) • congenital or acquired

Spermatic cord

Inguinal canal – men & womenintestines

Parietal peritoneum

scrotum

Inguinal hernia

1. Name the 4 layers of connective tissue that wrap around skeletal muscles.

2. Which ones are continuous with a tendon?

3. Botox (botulinum toxin) works by blocking the release of ACh at the neuromuscular junction. How does this help with:

• crossed eyes• uncontrolled blinking • those pesky forehead wrinkles

1. Location of shoulder muscles2. Which joints do these muscles cross?

Muscle that move the humerus and scapula

3. What movements do these muscle perform?

• attachments• actions (on humerus)

• abduct (lateral fibers)• flex, medially rotate (anterior fibers)• extend, laterally rotate (posterior fibers)

Deltoid

• attachments• actions

• flexion (agonist)• adduction• medial rotation• elevate ribs

Subscapularis• medially rotate

Supraspinatus• abduct

Infraspinatus•Extend•Laterally rotate

Teres minor• adduct• laterally rotate

4 Rotator cuff muscles

Scapula movers & stabilizers

Levator scapulae• elevate scapula• flex neck

Rhomboids• retract• elevate• fix scapula• rotate downward

Trapezius• elevate, rotate upward (S)• retract (M)• depress (I)• extend neck• flex laterally (one trap)

Impingement syndrome

Rotator cuff tears

1. Location of hip and thigh muscles2. Which joints do these muscles cross?

Muscles that move the femur

3. What kind of movements do these muscle perform?

Iliopsoas• flex hip

Adductors• adduct femur• flex hip• flex knee• (lateral rotation)

Lateral rotators• piriformis• obturator externus

Groin pull

TensorFasciaeLatae (TFL)• flex• abduct• med. rot
