of the Shoulder
PHTH 224
Accessory Muscles:
-Pectoralis Major (clavicular
fibers)
-Biceps Brachii.
ROM= 0° to 90°.
Limitation of ROM: by
ankylose ( stiffness) of the
shoulder joint.
Effect of Weakness:
Origin:
Spinous processes of last 6
vertebrae.
Last 3 or 4 ribs.
Posterior 1/3 of external lip
of iliac crest.
Part of inferior angle of the
scapula.
Insertion: Intertubercular
groove of humerus.
Accessory Muscles:
Triceps ( Long Head)
Teres Minor
Range of Motion :
From 0° to 50° beyond the
midline.
Accessory ms. :
Deltoid anterior and
posterior fibers act as
stabilizers
Action:
Abducts the shoulder joint.
If paralysis of deltoid +
supraspinatus, the humerus tends
to subluxate downward if arm is
unsupported:
1 inch separation
of the head of
the humerus &
the glenoid cavity.
Supraspinatus weakness
or rupture decreases the
shoulder joint stability
allowing the head of
humerus to change its
relationship with glenoid
cavity.

Shoulder Adduction
Pectoralis Major:
Origin:
Anterior surface of sternal ½ of
clavicle.
Anterior surface of sternum.
Cartilage of first 6th or 7th ribs.
ROM : + or - 135°
Effects of weakness:
Note:
For grading a weak lateral
rotator group against gravity,
the prone position can be used
but the supine position is
preferred to eliminate the
necessity of maximal trapezius
fixation & decrease the
assistance of deltoid posterior.

Internal Rotation
Muscles:
Subscapularis
Pectoralis Major
Latissimus Dorsi
Teres Major
Insertion: Tuberosity of
Radius and aponeurosis of
Biceps Brachii.
Action:
Flexes the shoulder joint & long
head assists in abduction if
humerus is laterally rotated.
Brachioradialis:
Origin: proximal 2/3 of lateral
supracondylar ridge of humerus.
Insertion: lateral side of base of
styloid process of radius.
Nerve C5 C6.
Action:
Flexes the elbow jt.,
assists in pronating to
midposition
and supination to midposition.
