Joints of upper limb

By Dr. Eman AbdelGhany

Joints of Upper Extremity

• 1-Sternoclavicular – Synovial-saddle • 2- Acromioclavicular – Synovial-plane • 3- Glenohumeral joint(shoulder) – Synovial-ball&socket

1- Sternoclavicular joint • Articular surfaces: - sternal end of the clavicle.

- clavicular notch of manubrium sterni.

- first costal cartilage.

• Ligaments: - costoclavicular ligament.

- interclavicular ligament.

- ant. & post. Sternoclavicular ligaments.

• Blood supply: suprascapular artery & internal thoracic artery.

• Nerve supply: medial supraclavicular nerve & nerve to subclavius.

• NB: It is divided by articular disc into two cavities.

2 Acromioclavicular joint • Articular surfaces : - acromial end of the clavicle - lateral side of acromion process.

• Ligaments: • Acromioclavicular ligament.

- coracoclavicular ligament ( conoid & trapezoid parts) .

• Blood supply : suprascapular & thoracoacromial arteries.

• Nerve supply : suprascapular & lateral supraclavicular nerves.

NB: Incompletely divided by articular disc into two compartments.

Movements of both joints allow scapular rotation up to 60 degrees.

The Elbow Joint

Elbow joint • Elbow Joint type: – Synovial – hinge • Articular surfaces: – Humeroulnar ( trochla of humerus+ trochlear notch of ulna ) – Humeroradial (capitulum of humerus + upper surface of head of radius)

Capsule and synovial membr

ane are common for elbow & SRUJ

Capsule i

s attached to humerus, ulna & unular ligament. It is not attached to radius.

It includes the radial, coronoid & olecranon fossae of the humerus.

Ligaments of the Elbow

1- Ulnar Collateral Ligament medial side – connects humerus to ulna (3 bands ant. , post. And oblique bands) 2- Radial Collateral Ligament Lateral side – connects humerus to radius 3- Annular Ligament Surrounds radial head/holds it tight to ulna

Movement

• Muscles Affecting the Elbow: - Elbow Flexors 1. Brachialis 2. Biceps brachii 3. Brachioradialis - Elbow Extensors 1. Triceps 2. Anconeus

Relations of elbow joint

1-Anterior: cubital fossa;

Medial

= Pronator teres

Lateral

Superior

= Line between Epicodyles

Roof

= skin, fascia +bicipital aponeurosis

Floor

= supinator + brachialis muscles Frolich, Human Anatomy,UpprLimb

Relations of elbow joint ( cont.)

2- Posterior relation :

triceps and anconeus muscles.

3- Medial relation :

ulnar nerve & common flexor origin.

4- Lateral relation :

supinator & common extensor origin.

Blood supply

: anastomosis around the elbow joint.

Nerve supply

: musculocutanious + radial + ulnar nerves.

Radius and Ulna

Joints

• Radioulnar joint – Radial head rotates around at proximal ulna – Distal radius rotates around distal ulna – Annular ligament maintains radial head in its joint – Joint between shafts of radius & ulna held tightly together between proximal & distal articulations by an interosseus membrane (syndesmosis) • substantial rotary motion between the bones 6-12 Manual of Structural Kinesiology The Elbow and Radioulnar Joints

Joints of Upper Extremity

• Proximal Radioulnar joint – Synovial - pivot • Distal Radioulnar joint – Synovial – pivot • Allows pronation and supination of forearm • MiddleRadioulnar joint

Radioulnar Joint •

Proximal (superior)radioulnar joint:

– articulation between circumference of head of radius and radial notch of ulna .

– not part of “hinge” joint – Synovial (pivot) joint – allows for forearm pronation/supination 

Distal ( inferior) radioulnar joint:

- articulation between head of ulna and ulnar notch of radius.

- Not part of wrist joint separated from it by articular disc.

- Synovial pivot joint.

- allows for forearm pronation/supination 

Middle radioulnar joint :

fibrous syndesmosis, connect radius & ulna by interosseous membrane,

Muscles of radioulnar joints

• Radioulnar pronators – Pronator teres – Pronator quadratus – Brachioradialis( begin movement ) • Radioulnar supinators – Biceps brachii(powerful supination for flexed elbow) – Supinator muscle – Brachioradialis( begin movement) 6-15

1. Radial styloid 2. Scaphoid 3. Lunate 4. Triquetral 5. Pisiform 6. Trapezium 7. Trapezioid 8. Capitate 9. Hamate 10. Metacarpal 11. Proximal phalanx 12. Middle phalanx 13. Distal phalanx 14. ulna styloid

Joints of the Upper Extremity

• Radiocarpal joint(wrist): – Synovial-ellipsoid – Distal radius with proximal row of carpals(lunate & scaphoid) • Intercarpal joints – Synovial-plane • Carpal-metacarpal (2-5) – Synovial-plane • Trapezium-metacarpal 1 st – Synovial-saddle • Metacarpal-phalangeal – Synovial-condyloid • Interphalangeal – Synovial-hinge

Wrist Articulations

• Radiocarpal Joint – Proximal portion – Distal portion – Most surface contact found

Wrist (radiocarpal ) joint

• Articulation between  (lower end of radius + scaphoid & lunate ), (triquetral +articular disc)=== the ulna not share in the wrist joint .

• Ligaments : 1- Ulnar collateral (styloid process of ulna to triquetral & pisiform); 2- Radial collateral ligament (styloid process of radius to scaphoid bone) 3- Ant. & post. Radiocarpal ligaments= thickened capsule.

Relations:

Ant. : carpal tunnel ?

Post. : Extensor compartments?

Lat.: Anatomical snuff box?

Med.: Dorsal branch of ulnar nerve.

Extensor Compartments

– Anatomic snuffbox: EPL and EPB – Scaphoid on floor – Radial a. inside

Extensor Compartments

Movement of the wrist joint

• Wrist Extensors (innervated by radial n.) • Superficial – Extensor carpi radialis brevis/longus – Extensor carpi ulnaris – Extensor digitorium – brachioradialis • Deep compartment – Extensor pollicus longus/brevis – Abductor pollicus longus – Extensor indices – supinator • Secured by extensor retinaculum

• Wrist flexors (median n.) – Superficial • Flexor carpi radialis • Palmaris longus • Flexor carpi ulnaris • Flexor digitorium superficialis • Pronator teres – Deep • Flexor digitorium profundus • Flexor pollicis longus • Pronator quadratus

Cross Section just proximal to Carpal Tunnel

Carpal Tunnel

• Fibro-osseous structure – Floor is proximal carpal bones – Roof is transverse carpal ligament • Tunnel contains 10 structures – Median n., flexor pollicis longus tendon, 4 slips of flexor digitorium superficialis, flexor digitorium profundus • Compression results in paresthesia 2-4 fingers and decrease grip

• Interosseus membrane.

• Annular ligament.

• Disc of inferior radioulnar joint.

• Oblique cord.

• Supinator & pronator quadratus muscles.

Forces transmitted from the upper limb to axial skeleton pass through:

• Glenoid cavity.

• Coracoid process.

• Clavicle.

• Costoclavicular ligament.

• 1 st rib & sternum.

And neither through acromioclavicular joint nor through sternoclavicular joint.
