The brachioradialis is a superficial, fusiform muscle on the lateral side of the forearm. It originates proximally on the lateral supracondylar ridge of the humerus. It inserts distally on the radius, at the base of its styloid process. [3] Near the elbow, it forms the lateral limit of the cubital fossa, or elbow pit. [4]
The anterior compartment of the forearm (or flexor compartment) [ 1] contains the following muscles: [ 2] The muscles are largely involved with flexion and supination. [ 2] The superficial muscles have their origin on the common flexor tendon. [ 2] The ulnar nerve and artery are also contained within this compartment. [ 2]
Origin and insertion. The flexor carpi radialis is one of four muscles in the superficial layer of the anterior compartment of the forearm. This muscle originates from the medial epicondyle of the humerus as part of the common flexor tendon. It runs just laterally of flexor digitorum superficialis and inserts on the anterior aspect of the base ...
For the legs, superficial muscles are shown in the anterior view while the posterior view shows both superficial and deep muscles. There are three types of muscles—cardiac, skeletal, and smooth. Smooth muscles are used to control the flow of substances within the lumens of hollow organs, and are not consciously controlled.
Transverse section across distal ends of radius and ulna. (Flexor dig. subliminis labeled at center top.) Flexor digitorum superficialis (flexor digitorum sublimis) or flexor digitorum communis sublimis[1] is an extrinsic flexor muscle of the fingers at the proximal interphalangeal joints. It is in the anterior compartment of the forearm.
Anatomical terms of muscle. [edit on Wikidata] The pronator teres is a muscle (located mainly in the forearm) that, along with the Pronator quadratus muscle pronator quadratus, serves to pronate the forearm (turning it so that the palm faces posteriorly when from the anatomical position). It has two origins, at the medial humeral supracondylar ...
The serratus anterior is a muscle of the chest. It originates at the side of the chest from the upper 8 or 9 ribs; it inserts along the entire length of the anterior aspect of the medial border of the scapula. It is innervated by the long thoracic nerve from the brachial plexus. The serratus anterior acts to pull the scapula forward around the ...
