Veins of the upper limb Deep veins: accompany the arteries of the same region and bear similar names Superficial veins • Cephalic vein ü Arises from the lateral side of the dorsal venous rete of hand ü Ascends on radial side of the forearm to the elbow and then in the lateral side of biceps brachii furrow, continues up the arm in the deltopectoral groove and then to the infraclavicular fossa, where it pierces clavipectoral fascia to drain into axillary vein
• Basilic vein ü Arises from the medial side of the dorsal venous rete of hand ü Ascends on the ulnar side of forearm to the elbow and then in the medial bicipital furrow to middle of the arm where it pierces the deep fascia and joins the brachial vein or axillary vein • Median cubital vein ü links cephalic vein and basilic vein in the cubital fossa. It is a frequent site for venipuncture to remove a sample of blood or add fluid to the blood
The lymphatic drainage of upper limb Lymphatic vessels • Superficial-follow the superficial veins, drain into supratrochlear and axillary lymph nodes • Deep-accompany main vessels, end in axillary lymph nodes Lymph nodes • Cubital lymph node: lies above medial epicondyle of humerus • Axillary lymph node-arranged in five groups
Axillary lymph nodes Arranged in five groups • Lateral lymph nodes lie around the distal end of axillary vein , receiving drainage from the arm, forearm, and hand • Pectoral lymph nodes lie along lateral thoracic vessels, receive afferents from anterior thoracic wall including central and lateral portion of mamma • Subscapular lymph node along subscapular vessels, receive lymph from nape and scapular region Efferents above three groups pass to central lymph node
• Central lymph nodes – in fat of axillary fossa, receive drainage from all the above nodes, efferents pass to apical lymph node • Apical lymph nodes – In the apex of the axilla, along the proximal end of axillary vessels – Drains central lymph nodes, upper portion of mamma Pectoral; Subscapular; Lateral Central Apical subclavian trunk
Brachial plexus Formation: • Five roots: anterior rami of C 5 -C 8 and T 1 spinal nerves, roots C 5 -C 7 give rise to long thoracic n. • Three trunks – Upper trunk formed by the joining of roots C 5, C 6. – Middle trunk continuation of root C 7. – Lower trunk formed by the joining of roots C 8 and T 1. • Six divisions: above clavicle, trunks form anterior and posterior divisions • Three cords: below clavicle, divisions form three cords that surround the second portion of axillary a.

Forearm Muscles Supinate and Pronate • Supinator muscle supinates the forearm. • Biceps brachii supinates the forearm. • Pronator teres and pronator quadratus pronate the forearm. Move the Wrist Joint, Hand, and Fingers n n Muscles in the forearm move the hand at the wrist and/or the fingers. Extrinsic muscles of the wrist and hand originate on the forearm, not the wrist or hand. Tendons of forearm muscles typically are surrounded by tendon (synovial) sheaths and held adjacent to the skeletal elements by strong fascial structures. At the wrist, the deep fascia of the forearm forms thickened, fibrous bands termed retinacula.
n The forearm extends from elbow to wrist. n It posses two bones radius laterally & Ulna medially. n The two bones are connected together by the interosseous membrane. This membrane allows movement of Pronation and Supination while the n n two bones are connected together. Also it gives origin for the deep muscles.
Fascial Compartments of the Forearm §Sheath of deep fascia attached to the posterior border of the ulna. §The fascial sheath, interosseous membrane & fibrous intermuscular septa, divide the forearm into 3 compartments, each having its own muscles, nerves, and blood supply.
These muscles: 8 § Act on the elbow & wrist joints and those of the fingers. § Form fleshy masses in the proximal part and become tendinous in the distal part of the forearm. • Arranged in three groups: I-Superficial: 4 Ø Pronator teres Ø Flexor carpi radialis Ø Palmaris longus Ø Flexor carpi ulnaris II-Intermediate: 1 Ø Flexor digitorum superficialis FLEXOR GROUP III- Deep: 3 Ø Flexor digitorum profundus Ø Flexor pollicis longus Ø Pronator quadratus
