What is hilton's law?

What are the axillary boundaries?

- INFERIOR to the glenohumeral joint and SUPERIOR to the skin of the axillary fold - three muscular walls 1. small lateral bony wall = intertubercular sulcus 2. posterior wall = scapular muscles (Humerus, Teres Major, Latissimus dorsi, subscapularis, and the scapula) 3. anterior wall = pectoral muscles (Pectoralis minor and major) 4. anterior axillary fold = inferior portion/border of the pectoralis major 5. posterior axillary fold = latissimus dorsi and teres major 6. medial wall = serratus anterior and 4th rib

The vascularity pathway (ulnar and radial artery)

1. Aorta- coming out of the left ventricle 2. On the right side of the aortic arch we will have the brachiocephalic artery -> bifurcate into the common carotid and subclavian artery 3. subclavian artery = main artery in the upper EX 4. subclavian artery is going to have a branches in the upper neck, which will traverse beyond the lateral border of the 1st rib (change its name to the axillary artery) 5. axillary artery is going to run through the axilla and will run past teres major/ gets to the inferior border of the teres major -> will change its name to brachial artery 6. brachial artery will continue down the region of the arm and split in the region of the cuboidal fossa (split into ulnar and radial artery)

Continuation of Vascularity Pathway

1. Axillary artery coming down to the inferior border of teres major -> becomes the brachial artery 2. brachial artery gives off the profunda brachii artery will go to the radial groove (posterior mid humerus) which runs with the radial nerve 3. brachial artery will continue to the elbow pit (cubital fossa) which will give off the ulnar and radial branch 4. ulnar artery = is giving off the common interosseous arteries 5. common interosseous arteries will send off two branches (will bifurcate into anterior and posterior interosseous arteries) 6. anterior interosseous artery = pierces the interosseous membrane -> flexor compartment of the forearm 7. posterior interosseous arteries will remain on the posterior aspect of the limb -> pierce the interosseous membrane -> the extensor compartment
