MUSCLES OF BACK, ABDOMEN & RESPIRATION

MUSCLES OF THE BACK


2 Groups: 1. Extrinsic Back Muscle a. Superficial extrinsic muscles- produce & controls the limb Trapezius, latissimus dorsi, levator scapula & rhomboids b. Intermediate extrinsic muscles- thin muscle that designated as superficial respiratory muscle (produces respiratory movements). Serratus posterior 2. Intrinsic (deep) Back Muscles- specifically acts on vertebral column, producing its movements & maintaining posture.

MUSCLES OF THE BACK


Intrinsic (deep) Back Muscles specifically acts on vertebral column, producing its movements & maintaining posture. From from pelvis to cranium. Medially: enclosed by a deep fascia (ligamentum nuclei), vertebral spinous process, supraspinous ligament & crest of sacrum. Laterally: cervical & lumbar transverse process to angle of the ribs. Subdivided: superficial, intermediate & deep

SUPERFICIAL LAYER OF INTRINSIC BACK MUSCLE


1. Splenius (bandage) Muscle -Thin & flat muscle lie on lateral posterior aspect of the neck, covering vertical muscle like a bandage. -2 portion 1. From midline to cervical spine Splenius Cervicis 2. From midline to cranium Splenius Capitis

INTERMEDIATE LAYER OF INTRINSIC BACK MUSCLE


2. Erector Spinae Muscles aka long muscles of the back. - Chief EXTENSOR of vertebral column - Divided into 3 columns & divided regionally - Iliocostalis- forms lateral column (lumborum, thoracis & cervicis) - Longissimus- forms the intermediate column (thoracis, cervicis &capitis) - Spinalis-forms medial column (thoracis, cervicis & capitis)

DEEP LAYER OF INTRINSIC BACK MUSCLE


3. Transversospinalis Muscle Group - Consist of: - 3.1. Semispinalis- most superficial Has 3 parts: Semispinalis (capitis, thoracis & cervicis) - 3.2. Multifidus- middle layer. Consist of short triangular muscle bundle thickest in lumbar region. - 3.3. Rotatores or rotatorsdeepest & well developed in thoracic area. - Common origin- vertebral process

DEEP LAYER OF INTRINSIC BACK MUSCLE


3. Minor deep back muscle Consist of: Interspinales- interspinal Intertransversarii- intertransverse Levator costarum- Elevators of the ribs

MUSCLE OF THE THORACIC REGION


1. Thoraco-appendicular muscles (ANTERIOR: pectoralis major & minor, clavius, serratus anterior; POSTERIOR: latissimus dorsi) which acts on the upper limbs Note: Pectoralis major & minor and inferior part of serratus anterior & scalene muscles of the neck- also function as accessory muscles of respiration to elevate rib (expand thoracic cavity; and scalene muscle- fixing ribs & allowing muscles from rib below to elevate) during deep & forceful inspiration. 2. Muscle of the Thoracic wall Serratus posterior (superior & inferior), levatores costarum, intercostal (external, internal & innermost), subcostal & transverse thoracis.

MUSCLE OF THE THORACIC REGION


Muscles of Respirationprincipal muscles are the DIAPHRAGM, EXTERNAL INTERCOSTAL, and the interchondral part of the INTERNAL INTERCUSTAL muscles Both the external intercostal & intercondral intercostal elevate the ribs, to increasing the width of the thoracic cavity, diaphragm contracts to increase the vertical dimensions of the thoracic cavity, and also aids in the elevation of the lower ribs. Accessory muscles of inspiration- sternocleidomastoid (elevated sternum) & scalene muscle (anterior, middle & posterior). Controversial accessory muscle: upper trapezius, latissimus dorsi, erector spinae (thoracic), iliocostalis lumborum, quadratus lumborum, serratus posterior superior and inferior, levatores costarum, transversus thoracis, subclavius.

MUSCLES OF THE ABDOMINAL WALL

5 muscles in the anterolateral abdominal wall.

3 flat muscles: 1. External & internal oblique & 2. transverse abdominal (concentric layers crisscrossing each other and continues anteromedially as a strong sheet like aponeurosis) Then between line aponeurosis forms tendinous RECTUS SHEATH enclosing rectus abdominis muscles then this aponeurosus interweave with opposite side forming LINEA ALBA (white line) from xiphoid process to pubic symphysis. 2 vertical muscles: 1. rectus abdominis 2. pyramidalis (contained within rectus sheath. Function & action of anterolateral abdominal wall: 1. Forms a strong expandable support for ant.lat. Abdominal wall 2. Protect viscera from injury 3. Compress abdominal content- maintain or increase abdominal pressure 4. Move trunk & maintain posture
