subscapular

This includes the abdominal area, the subscapular region, arms, buttocks and thighs.

The thoracodorsal artery is a branch of the subscapular artery.

The lower subscapular nerve contains two branches.

The subscapular skinfold thickness was not measured until 1978-1979 (the third examination of schoolchildren), and levels are shown only for adults.

Doctors often recommend physical therapy in order to strengthen the subscapular muscle, and prescribe anti-inflammatory medications.

Sometimes, other structures in the body such as inflamed and enlarged subcorocoid or subscapular bursa press on the nerve.

It is a thick but somewhat flattened muscle, innervated by the lower subscapular nerve (C6 and C7).

The subscapular nerves are innervated by the posterior division of the brachial plexus.

The teres major muscle is innervated by the lower subscapular nerve of the brachial plexus.

It can be associated with dullness to percussion over the left subscapular area due to compression of the left lung base.

Subscapular nerves can refer to:

It is also known as the middle subscapular nerve or the long subscapular nerve.

The costal or ventral surface of the scapula presents a broad concavity, the subscapular fossa.

Omohyoideus: originates from the subscapular fascia of the scapulohumeral joint, inserts in the hyoid.

The upper subscapular nerve inserts directly into the upper portion of the subscapularis muscle, thus innervating it.

The ratio of the subscapular skinfold thickness to TSF is used as a measure of central fat distribution.

The middle subscapular nerve, known as the thoracodorsal nerve also branches from the posterior division of the brachial plexus.

Innervation to subscapularis is supplied by the upper and lower subscapular nerves, branches of the posterior cord of the brachial plexus.

The axillary artery may be safely clamped without endangering the arm, but only in a location proximal to the origin of the subscapular artery.

Histological features include distention or engorgement of both subscapular and inatraparenchymal sinuses by benign histiocytes which may be hemo phagocytic.

The descending branch of the transverse cervical artery anastomosises with the deep and dorsal scapular artery which in turn links to the subscapular.

The Subscapular aponeurosis is a fibrous membrane that lines the subscapular fossa of the scapula.

It arises from its medial two-thirds and from the lower two-thirds of the groove on the axillary border (subscapular fossa) of the scapula.

The subscapular artery gives off a circumflex scapular branch that enters the infraspinous fossa on the dorsal surface of the bone, grooving the axillary border.

The sum of the four skinfolds (SUM) was calculated from triceps, subscapular, suprailliac and thigh skinfolds in the total sample.
