• Becomes brachial artery at lower border of teres major
• Divided into three parts by overlying pectoralis minor
– A:First portion, above muscle- gives rise to 1:highest thoracic artery
– B:Second portion, behind muscle- gives rise to
– 1:thoraco acromial artery
– 2:lateral thoracic artery. – C:Third portion, below muscle- gives rise to
1:subscapular artery– 2: posterior and anterior humeral circumflex

aspect of forearm and arm to middle of arm.• Pierces deep fascia and ascends in upper

• Pierces coracobrachialis in upper half or third of brachium.
• Innervates muscles of anterior brachial compartment.
• Pierces fascia lateral to biceps tendon:Continues as lateral cutaneous nerve of the
forearm.Supplies skin on lateral forearm as far as
wrist.

Radial Nerve
• .
• Descends posterior to the axillary artery:Spirals around the posterior surface of the
humerus in the spiral (radial) groove.
Accompanied by deep brachial artery.
Radial Nerve
• Pierces lateral intermuscular septum distal to deltoid insertion.
• Passes into forearm:Between the brachialis medially and the
brachioradialis laterally.
• Divides into superficial and deep branches near lateral epicondyle.
Radial Nerve
• Branches in the distal third of the arm:Branch to brachioradialis.
Branch to extensor carpi radialis longus (brevis?)
Articular branches to elbow joint.

• Supplies flexor muscles on the radial side of the forearm.
• Travels with the brachial artery:Lateral to artery in upper half of brachium.
Medial to artery in lower half of brachium.
• Crosses cubital fossa superficially:With brachial artery

Articulations: The site where 2 or more bones meet.
Joints are the weakest part of the skeleton.
ClassificationFunctional: Amount of movement allowed
1). Synarthroses: Immovable joints
2). Amphiarthrosis: Slightly movable joint
3). Diarthroses: Fully movable joints
FibulaTibia
Ligament
(b) Syndesmosis Joint held together by a ligament.
Fibrous tissue can vary in length, but is longer than in sutures.
ClassificationStructural: based on material binding the bone.
1). Fibrous: Bone ends united by collagenic fibers
a). Sutures
b). Syndesmoses
c). Gomphoses
Classification
2). Cartilaginous JointsBones are united by cartilage
a). Synchondrosis
b). Symphyses

Slightly Movable (ampharthrosis) and Immovable (synarthrosis)
Joints
• Lacks a synovial cavity• Bones connected by fibrocartilage or
hyaline cartilage• 2 types
- synchondrosis- symphyses

Shoulder joint
Ankle Joint
• Planar Joint• Hinge Joint• Pivot Joint• Saddle Joint• Ball & Socket Joint• Condyloid or Ellipsoid Joint
• Convex surface of bone fits in concave surface of 2nd bone
• Unixlateral like a door hinge• Examples:
- Knee, elbow, ankle, interphalangeal joints• Movements produced:
- flexion- extension- hyperextension
• Bone surfaces are slightly curved• Side to side movement only• Rotation prevented by ligaments• Examples:
- intercarpal to intertarsal joints- sternoclavicular joint- vertebrocostal joints
• Rounded surface of bone articulates with the ring formed by the 2nd bone & ligament
• Monoaxial since it only allows rotation around longitudinal axis
• Examples:- proximal radioulnar joint
- supination- pronation
- atlanto-axial joint- Turning head side to side “no”
• One bone saddle-shaped, other bone fits like a person riding on the saddle
• Biaxial- circumduction allows the tip of the
thumb to travel in a circle- Opposition allows thumb to touch tip
of other fingers• Examples:
- Trapezium of carpus and metacarple of thumb
• Ball fitting into a cup-like depression• Multiaxial
- flexion/extension- abduction/adduction- rotation
• Examples:- shoulder joint- hip joint
• Oval-shaped depression fits into oval depression• Biaxial= flex/extend or adduct/abduct is possible• Examples:
- Wrist and metacarpophelangeal joints for 2 to 5 digits
