The muscles that insert on the scapula and anchor

it to the trunk form an extensive muscular sling.

During development the upper limb annexes these

muscles from the head and trunk wall. They share the common functional goal of moving the scapula,

stabilizing it, and anchoring it to the axial skeleton. These muscles are some of the larger muscles of the

upper limb, yet produce visibly minor movements of the skeleton. Realize, however, that their major

role is to stabilize and anchor the scapula to the axial skeleton. With the exception of the pectoralis

minor, the nerves that supply these muscles arise from the roots of the brachial plexus.

Shoulder Muscles - Rotator Cuff

Deep dissection of the right shoulder muscles

Anterior view

The rotator cuff muscles are an important muscle group that play a critical role in stabilizing the

shoulder joint. The four muscles (supraspinatus, infraspinatus, teres minor, and subscapularis)

have thick, fl at tendons of insertion that form a strong musculotendinous cuff around all but the

inferior aspect of the glenohumeral joint. These tendons are intimately applied to the fi brous

membrane of the joint capsule. Individually each muscle contributes little to the total range of

motion of the humerus at the glenohumeral joint. However, they play a prominent role in stabilizing the joint and positioning and stabilizing the head of the humerus in the glenoid cavity. When

the rotator cuff muscles are compromised by injury, the shoulder joint loses stability and

becomes highly susceptible to dislocation.

The prime movers of the shoulder joint are the muscles that share a common attachment on the

intertubercular groove (pectoralis major, teres major, and latissimus dorsi) and the deltoid muscle.

These large muscles are superfi cial to the muscles of the rotator cuff and form extensive attachments on the pectoral girdle and axial skeleton. Inserting more distally on the humerus then the

muscles of the rotator cuff, they have a better mechanical advantage and produce the major

movements of the shoulder joint. The intertubercular groove muscles also form the anterior and

posterior walls of the axilla. The large pectoralis major forms the anterior wall of the axilla, while

the sheet-like latissimus dorsi and thick, round teres major form the posterior axillary wall.

The anterior muscle

compartment of the

brachium consists of

three muscles — the coracobrachialis, brachialis, and biceps brachii. The coracobrachialis and

brachialis each cross a single joint, the shoulder joint and elbow joint respectively. The biceps

brachii crosses three joints, the shoulder, and the humero-ulnar and radio-ulnar joints of the

elbow. The muscles share in common the actions of fl exion of the shoulder and elbow. All three

muscles are innervated by the musculocutaneous nerve.

distinct muscle layers. The superfi cial group has four superfi cial muscles (pronator teres, fl exor carpi

radialis, palmaris longus, and fl exor carpi ulnaris) covering the intermediate fl exor digitorum superfi cialis.

All fi ve of these muscles share a common attachment on the medial epicondyle of the humerus. The three

deep muscles (fl exor digitorum profundus, fl exor pollicis longus, and pronator quadratus) do not cross

the elbow joint. Other than the two pronators, all the muscles are fl exors of either the wrist or digits. The

median nerve innervates all but the fl exor carpi ulnaris and the ulnar half of the fl exor digitorum profundus,

both of which are supplied by the ulnar nerve.
