Transcript of Muscles of back D.Rania Gabr D.Sama. D.Elsherbiny.
Objectives
• Identify the superficial and deep muscles of
the back in terms of their location, nerve
supply and actions.
• Understand the muscle support of the trunk.
• Explain the mechanism of body weight
transmission.
Vertebral ColumnCervical: 7
Thoracic: 12
Lumbar: 5
Sacral: 5 (fused to form 1 sacrum)
Coccygeal: 4 (fused to form coccyx)
Total= 33 (counted as 26 in the total bones of the body
because of fusion.
Movements at the Vertebral Column
Flexion: bending forward
Extension: bending backwards
Lateral flexion: bending side-wards
Rotation: Twisting the trunkCircumduction: Combined movements
MUSCLES OF THE BACKMUSCLES OF THE BACK
Intrinsic musclesIntrinsic muscles: : Develop in the backDevelop in the back Supplied by posterior
rami of spinal nerves
Extrinsic muscles:Extrinsic muscles: Not developed in the Not developed in the
backback Supplied by anterior
rami of spinal nerves.
Extrinsic Muscles of the Back
1. Superficial extrinsic back muscles:Superficial extrinsic back muscles:
Trapezius
Latissimus dorsi
Levator scapulae
Rhomboids major & minor
They all connect the upper limb to the trunk.
Supplied by anterior rami of spinal nerves
LEVATOR SCAPULAE; RHOMBOID MINOR & MAJORLEVATOR SCAPULAE; RHOMBOID MINOR & MAJOR
Origin:
1. Levator scapulae: cervical transverse processes
2. Rhomboid minor & major: thoracic spines
Insertion: back of medial border of scapula.
Nerve supply: dorsal scapular nerve.
Actions:
1. Levator scapulae: elevates scapula.
2. Rhomboid minor & major: retract scapula.
LATISSIMUS DORSILATISSIMUS DORSI• Origin: Spinous processes of T7 - L5
vertebrae. Iliac crest of sacrum. Thoracolumbar fascia. Inferior angle of the scapula. Lower three or four ribs. Insertion: floor of bicipital groove of humerus. Nerve supply: thoracodorsal nerve. Actions: extension, adduction & medial
rotation of humerus (arm, shoulder joint).
Extrinsic Muscles of the Back
2. Intermediate extrinsic back muscles:Intermediate extrinsic back muscles:
Serratus posterior superior
Serratus posterior inferior
They are superficial respiratory muscles and
are supplied by intercostal nerves.
Intermediate Extrinsic Back
Muscles It includes:It includes:
• Serratus posterior Serratus posterior superiorsuperior (rib elevator).
• Serratus posterior Serratus posterior inferior inferior (rib depressor).
Nerve supply: Nerve supply: anterior rami of thoracic spinal nerves.
Intrinsic Muscles of the Back
Called muscles of the back proper.
Deep muscles of the back.
All are supplied by the posterior primary
rami of spinal nerves.
Act to maintain posture and control
movement of the vertebral column.
Intrinsic Muscles of the Back
1. Superficial intrinsic back muscles:Superficial intrinsic back muscles:
Splenius cervices & splenius capitis
N.S: Posterior rami of spinal nerves.
Actions: Acting alone; Acting alone; laterally flex neck &
rotate head to side of active muscle.
Acting together; Acting together; extend head & neck.
2. Intermediate intrinsic Intermediate intrinsic back muscles:back muscles:
Erector spinae is the chief extensor of the vertebral column & is divided into three columns (also called as the long muscle of the back).
Ilio-costalis (forms lateral column)
Longissimus (forms intermediate column)
Spinalis (forms medial column)
They extend from sacrum to skull.They include extensors and rotators of head & vertebral column.Their tone is responsible for maintenance of normal curvature of vertebral column.
Intrinsic Muscles of the Back
3. Deep intrinsic back muscles:Deep intrinsic back muscles:
It can be divided into two groups:
Major deep layer
Minor deep layer
Deep Intrinsic Muscles of the Back1-Major deep layer
Transversospinal group consist of semispinalis, multifidus & rotators.
N.S: N.S: Posterior rami of spinal nerves.
Actions:Actions: Extension and stabilization of vertebral column.
Deep Intrinsic Muscles of the Back
2- Minor deep layerInterspinalesIntertransversariiLevatores costarum
N.SN.S: : Posterior rami of spinal nerves
ActionsActions: Extension, rotation, lateral flexion
and stabilization of vertebral column.
MUSCULAR TRIANGLES OF MUSCULAR TRIANGLES OF BACKBACK
Auscultatory Triangle:
2.Boundaries: latissimus dorsi, trapezius, and medial border of scapula.
2. Importance: breath sounds are most easily heard with a stethoscope.
Lumbar Triangle: (Triangle of Petit)
1.Boundaries : latissimus dorsi, posterior border of external oblique muscle of the abdomen and iliac crest.
2. Importance: Site of an abdominal hernia
Muscles of the backExtrinsic: Movements of upper limb and respiration.1st layer: Trapezius - Latissimus Dorsi
2nd layer: Levator Scapulae- Rhomboids (minor & major)
3rd layer: Serratus posterior (superior & inferior)Intrinsic: Act on vertebral column and neck.1st layer: Splenius2nd layer: Erector Spinae: Iliocostalis
