  1. Introduction to limbs Sanjaya Adikari Department of Anatomy

  2. Main topics covered • Skeleton • Superficial nerves/veins – only the important ones • Dermatomes • Muscle compartments – attachment & action of muscle groups and their innervation • Brachial plexus & lumbosacral plexus

  3. Main topics…. • Special regions: axilla, cubitalfossa, carpal tunnel, snuff box, femoral triangle, cubitalfossa, gluteal region etc. • Joints with ligaments • Arterial anastomoses • Lymph drainage

  4. Skeleton • Axial • Skull • Vertebral column & ribs • Appendicular • Limb girdles • Bones of the limbs

  5. Upper limb

  6. Skeleton Shoulder/pectoral girdle Arm (humerus) Fore arm (radius, ulna) Wrist (carpal bones) Hand (metacarpals, phalanges)

  7. Superficial veins & nerves

  8. Dermatomes

  9. Muscles of the shoulder • Flexors • Extensors • Internal/medial rotators • External/ lateral rotators • Abductors • Adductors

  10. Compartments of the right arm • Anterior Coracobrachialis Biceps brachii Brachialis N: musculocutaneous C5, C6 • Posterior Triceps N: Radial nerve C7, C8
