  2. Stay apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stay_apparatus

    The distal sesamoidean ligaments run from the sesamoid bones to the two pastern bones. Biceps brachii: originates from the caudal side of the scapula and inserts into the radial tuberosity. Flexes the elbow, and is the part of the stay apparatus that keeps the elbow and shoulder from bending.

  3. Coracoid process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracoid_process

    The coracoid process acts as an attachment and origin for a large number of muscles (attached muscles not labeled here). The coracoid process is a thick curved process attached by a broad base to the upper part of the neck of the scapula; [2] it runs at first upward and medially; then, becoming smaller, it changes its direction, and projects forward and laterally.

  4. Bicipitoradial bursa - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicipitoradial_bursa

    The bicipitoradial bursa is a bursa located between the distal tendon of the biceps brachii muscle and the anterior part of the tuberosity of the radius. [1] It partially or completely wraps around the biceps tendon. It ensures frictionless motion between the biceps tendon and the proximal radius during pronation and supination of the forearm ...

  5. Glenoid tubercles - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenoid_tubercles

    The supraglenoid tubercle is where for the long head of the biceps brachii muscle originates. It is a small, rough projection superior to the glenoid cavity near the base of the coracoid process . The name supraglenoid tubercle refers to its location above the glenoid cavity.

  6. Bicipital aponeurosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicipital_aponeurosis

    The bicipital aponeurosis originates from the distal insertion of the biceps brachii, and inserts into the deep fascia of the forearm. [1] The biceps tendon inserts on the radial tuberosity, and the bicipital aponeurosis lies medially to it. [2] It reinforces the cubital fossa, helping to protect the brachial artery and the median nerve running ...

  8. Coracobrachialis muscle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coracobrachialis_muscle

    Symptoms of overuse or injury are pain in the arm and shoulder, radiating down to the back of the hand. In more severe cases, the musculocutaneous nerve can get trapped, causing disturbances in sensation to the skin on the radial part of the forearm and weakened flexion of the elbow, as the nerve also supplies the biceps brachii and brachialis ...

  9. Biceps tendon rupture - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biceps_tendon_rupture

    The biceps brachii primarily serves to supinate the forearm at the elbow joint. [1] The muscle belly is composed of two heads. The short head is more medial and highlighted in green. The long head is more lateral and highlighted in red. A biceps tendon rupture or bicep tear is a complete or partial rupture of a tendon of the biceps brachii muscle.
