  1. Colles's fracture Patients with this fracture exhibit a dinner fork deformity.

  2. Skeleton of the upper limb Human Anatomy I UNIVERSITY OF THE GAMBIA FACULTY OF MEDICINE & ALLIED HEALTH SCIENCES

  3. Appendicular Skeleton • The appendicular skeleton is made up of the bones of the limbs and their girdles

  4. Bones of the upper limb Bones of the pectoral girdle Bones of the free part of the upper limb • Arm: Humerus. • Forearm: Radius and ulna. • Hand: Carpus, metacarpus and • phalanges. • Clavicle • Scapula

  5. Pectoral Girdle • The pectoral girdles consist of the clavicle and the scapulae • They attach the upper limbs to the axial skeleton in a manner that allows for maximum movement • They provide attachment points for muscles that move the upper limbs

  6. Pectoral Girdle

  7. Free part

  8. Clavicles Shaft Subclavian groove Trapeziod line

  9. Scapulae It extend from 2nd to 7th ribs.

  10. Scapulae

  11. Humerus Parts Proximal end Details Distal end

  12. X-ray of the proximal end of the humerus The surgical neck is a common fracture site of the humerus

  13. X-ray of the shaft of the humerus In this fracture the radial nerve and the deep artery of the arm can be injured.

  14. Humerus The following parts of the humerus are in direct contact with these nerve. • Surgical neck • Radial groove • Distal end of the humerus • Medial epicondyle Axillary nerve Radial nerve Median nerve Ulnar nerve

  15. Ulna and radius Radial notch

  16. Fracture of the radius Fracture of the distal end of the radius is the most common fracture in adults older than 50 years and occurs more frequently in women because their bones are more commonly weakened by osteoporosis

  17. Fracture of the radius The fracture of the distal end of the radius is called Colles’ fracture. Patients with this fracture exhibit a dinner fork deformity.

  18. Carpus • Contains 8 carpal bones Bound tightly by ligaments Arranged in 2 rows Proximal Scaphoid Lunate Triquetral Pisiform Distal Trapezium Trapezoid Capitate Hamate

  19. Hand

  20. Joints of the upper limb Sternoclavicular joint

  21. Joints of the upper limb Acromioclavicular joint Trapezoid Conoid

  22. Joints of the upper limb Scapulohumeral or shoulder joint

  23. Joints of the upper limb Scapulohumeral or shoulder joint

  24. Elbow Joint • The elbow joint includes three joints. • Humeroulnar- hinge joint • Humeroradial- gliding joint • Radioulnar proximal- pivot joint

  25. Joints of the upper limb Elbow joint

  26. Joints of the upper limb Elbow joint Humeroulnar joint Trochlea Trochlear notch Radial notch Proximal radiooulnar joint

  27. Joints of the upper limb

  28. Joints of the upper limb Wrist joint

  29. Joints of the upper limb Intercarpaljoint

  30. Joints of the upper limb 1st carpometacarpal joint Saddle joint

  31. Joints of the upper limb Interphalangeal joints 1st-5th Metacarpophalangeal joints 2nd-5th Carpometacarpal joints
