  2. Subscapularis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subscapularis_muscle

    The subscapularis is covered by a dense fascia which attaches to the scapula at the margins of the subscapularis' attachment (origin) on the scapula. [1] The muscle's fibers pass laterally from its origin before coalescing into a tendon of insertion. [citation needed] The tendon intermingles with the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint capsule. [1]

  3. Rotator cuff - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotator_cuff

    The rotator cuff includes muscles such as the supraspinatus muscle, the infraspinatus muscle, the teres minor muscle and the subscapularis muscle. The upper arm consists of the deltoids, biceps, as well as the triceps. Steps must be taken and precautions need to be made in order for the rotator cuffs to heal properly following surgery while ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scapulohumeral_muscles

    The scapulohumeral muscles are a group of seven muscles that connect the humerus to the scapula. They are amongst the muscles that act on and stabilise the glenohumeral joint in the human body. They include: coracobrachialis muscle deltoid muscle rotator cuff muscles: infraspinatus muscle subscapularis muscle supraspinatus muscle teres minor muscle teres major muscle See also Other muscles ...

  5. Oblique ridges of scapula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblique_ridges_of_scapula

    These ridges are formed by intramuscular tendons of the subscapularis muscle. [1] The costal or ventral surface of the scapula presents a broad concavity, the subscapular fossa. The medial two-thirds of the fossa are marked by several oblique ridges, which run lateralward and upward.

  6. Lower subscapular nerve - Wikipedia

    The lower subscapular nerve contains axons from the ventral rami of the C5 and C6 cervical spinal nerves. [2] [3] It is the third branch of the posterior cord of the brachial plexus.

    The lesser tuberosity, is more prominent than the greater: it is situated in front, and is directed medialward and forward. Above and in front it presents an impression for the insertion of the tendon of the subscapularis muscle. [2] Lesser tubercle of the right humerus Insertion of subscapularis muscle on the lesser tubercle

    The muscle which can 'cancel' or to some degree reverse the action of the muscle. Muscle synergies are noted in parentheses when relevant. O (Occurrences) Number of times that the named muscle row occurs in a standard human body. Here it may also be denoted when a given muscles only occurs in a male or a female body.

  9. Shoulder joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_joint

    The coracobrachial bursa is between the subscapularis muscle and the tendon of the coracobrachialis muscle. Between the capsule and the tendon of the subscapularis muscle is the subscapular bursa, this is also known as the subtendinous bursa of the scapularis. The supra-acromial bursa does not normally communicate with the shoulder joint.
