teres major muscle

They end at the inferior border of the teres major muscle.

The divot appears to be located at the origin of the deltoid or teres major muscles.

It is the continuation of the axillary artery beyond the lower margin of teres major muscle.

Its origin is at the lower margin of the teres major muscle and a continuation of the brachial vein.

The teres major muscle is innervated by the lower subscapular nerve of the brachial plexus.

The posterior axillary fold is a compound structure consisting of the latissimus dorsi and teres major muscles.

Together with teres minor muscle, teres major muscle forms the axillary space, through which several important arteries and veins pass.

The axillary space is an anatomic space, bounded by teres major muscle, teres minor muscle and humerus.

Its upper third consists of a prominent ridge, the crest of the lesser tubercle, which gives insertion to the tendon of the teres major muscle.

The teres major muscle (Latin teres meaning 'rounded') is a muscle of the upper limb and one of seven scapulohumeral muscles.

An avulsion injury left a divot on the humerus of Sue the T. rex, apparently located at the origin of the deltoid or teres major muscles.

As a result, this variation recruits the trapezius and teres major muscles much more than a vertical chin-up would, and is more commonly known as the supine row.

The lower subscapular nerve (alternatively, inferior subscapular nerve) is a nerve that supplies the lower part of the subscapularis muscle, and also supplies the teres major muscle.

After receiving inputs from both the lateral and medial cords of the brachial plexus, the median nerve enters the arm from axilla at the inferior margin of the teres major muscle.

There, around the lower border of the teres major muscle, the anterior and posterior circumflex humeral veins feed into it, just before it joins the brachial veins to form the axillary vein.

It is interesting to note that an irritation or entrapment of the lower subscapular nerve, which innervates the subscapularis and teres major muscles, will produce muscle guarding at the shoulder that will restrict motion into external rotation, abduction, or flexion.

It arises from the dorsal surface of the axillary border of the scapula for the upper two-thirds of its extent, and from two aponeurotic laminæ, one of which separates it from the infraspinatus muscle, the other from the teres major muscle.

A shoulder tender also called beef shoulder petite tender, beef shoulder tender petite roast, bistro filet, rat or teres major steak is a US cut of beef of the teres major muscle from the blade of the shoulder (chuck).
