The medial region is the longest clavicular region as it takes up two-thirds of the entire shaft. The lateral region is both the widest clavicular region and thinnest clavicular region. The lateral end has a rough inferior surface that bears a ridge, the trapezoid line , and a slight rounded projection, the conoid tubercle (above the coracoid ...
the popliteal region encompassing the back of the knee, the sural region encompassing the back of the lower leg, the calcaneal region encompassing the heel, the plantar region encompassing the sole of the foot. Some regions are combined into larger regions. These include the trunk, which is a combination of the thoracic, mammary, abdominal ...
From its neutral position, the shoulder girdle can be rotated about an imaginary vertical axis at the medial end of the clavicle (the sternoclavicular joint). Throughout this movement the scapula is rotated around the chest wall so that it moves 15 centimetres (5.9 in) laterally and the glenoid cavity is rotated 40–45° in the horizontal plane.
Mid-clavicular line: A vertical line passing through the midpoint of the clavicle. Mammillary line; Anterior axillary line: A vertical line on the anterior torso marked by the anterior axillary fold. Midaxillary line: A vertical line passing through the apex of the axilla.
The shoulder girdle [5] or pectoral girdle, [6] composed of the clavicle and the scapula, connects the upper limb to the axial skeleton through the sternoclavicular joint (the only joint in the upper limb that directly articulates with the trunk), a ball and socket joint supported by the subclavius muscle which acts as a dynamic ligament. While ...
The clavipectoral triangle (also known as the deltopectoral triangle) is an anatomical region found in humans and other animals. It is bordered by the following structures: Clavicle [1] (superiorly) Lateral border of Pectoralis Major [2] (medially) Medial border of Deltoid muscle [3] (laterally)

The medial cord is the part of the brachial plexus formed by of the anterior division of the lower trunk (C8-T1). [1] Its name comes from it being medial to the axillary artery as it passes through the axilla. The other cords of the brachial plexus are the posterior cord and lateral cord.
