Superficial muscles of the back Kaan Yücel M.D., Ph.D 05.March.2014 Wednesday
MUSCLES OF THE BACK • Extrinsic back muscles • Superficial group • Movementsof the upperlimb • Intermediate group • Attached to the ribs • May serve as a respiratory function. • Intrinsic (deep) back muscles • Act on the vertebralcolumn • Itsmovements • Maintainposture
SUPERFICIAL GROUP OF BACK MUSCLES Immediatelydeep to the skin and superficial fascia. Connectedwith the shoulder girdle. Attachthe superior part of the appendicular skeleton (clavicle, scapula, and humerus) to the axial skeleton (skull, ribs, and vertebral column).
SUPERFICIAL GROUP OF BACK MUSCLES Produceand control limb movements. Trapezius Latissimusdorsi Rhomboid major Rhomboid minor Levator scapulae
TRAPEZIUS Coversposterioraspect of neck & superiorhalf of trunk trapezium (G. irregularfour-sidedfigure)
TRAPEZIUS muscle'sorigin: base of triangle situated along vertebral column muscle'sinsertion: apexpointingtoward tip of shoulder Occipital bone Scapula Vertebralcolumn
TRAPEZIUS attachesthepectoralgirdle tocranium & vertebralcolumn assistsin suspendingtheupperlimb.
TRAPEZIUS • Descending (superior) fibers elevate the scapula • (e.g., when squaring the shoulders). • Middle fibers • retract the scapula • (i.e., pull it posteriorly). • Ascending (inferior) fibers depress the scapula and • lower the shoulder.
TRAPEZIUS • Superiorfibers of trapezius • fromtheskullandupperportion of thevertebralcolumn • descendtoattachto • lateral 1/3 clavicle & acromion of scapula.
TRAPEZIUS Lateral 1/3 C7 to T12 Spine of scapula

LATTISIUMUS DORSI • Spinous processes of T7 to L5 • Sacrum • Iliac crest • Ribs 10 to 12 • Floor of intertubercular sulcus of humerus
LATTISIUMUS DORSI • Passesfromthetrunktothehumerus. • Actsdirectly on theglenohumeraljoint. • Actsindirectlyon thepectoralgirdle.
