Pectoralis Major Muscle Transfer With the Sternal Head and Hamstring Autograft for Scapular Winging

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2017
Medial scapular winging is often due to dysfunction of the serratus anterior muscle as a result of injury to the long thoracic nerve. Impairment of the serratus anterior muscle may cause uncoordinated scapulohumeral rhythm during shoulder elevation and ...

Holding a wing horizontal: Roles for muscles of the pectoral girdle other than the main two flight muscles

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
This report explores which muscles of the pectoral girdle are employed to allow birds to hold their wings horizontally with a level aerofoil surface during a glide. Abstract Whilst many birds glide briefly with wings held horizontally, some species maintain this posture for extended periods during soaring.

Development of the abdominal musculature in the chicken embryo

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
In this study, we investigate anatomy, morphogenesis, segmental origin, and fiber formation of the abdominal musculature in the chicken embryo. We show that abdominal muscles arise from somites 24 to 28, and that the segmental identity of individual fibers in the abdominal muscle sheets is maintained.

Modified transfer of the pectoralis major muscle for restoration of elbow flexion in facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy: A case report

Journal of Orthopaedic Reports
Background: Facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy (FSHD) is the third most common form of muscular dystrophy. It primarily exhibits slowly progressing symmetric muscle weakness in the facial, scapular, and upper arm muscles. The loss of elbow flexion is

Deep learning-based pectoralis muscle volume segmentation method from chest computed tomography image using sagittal range detection and axial slice-based segmentation

PLoS ONE, 2023
The pectoralis muscle is an important indicator of respiratory muscle function and has been linked to various parenchymal biomarkers, such as airflow limitation severity and diffusing capacity for carbon monoxide, which are widely used in diagnosing ...

Soft tissue abnormalities in the congenital limb malformation radial dysplasia (RD): Their clinical impact and treatment significance

Journal of Anatomy, EarlyView.
We review the characteristic changes to the limb soft tissue and neurovascular abnormalities that have been described in the congenital limb birth defect, Radial Dysplasia. These include consistent changes in muscle anatomy or absence of specific muscles, persistent median arteries and absent radial arteries and consistent alterations in neural ...

Locomotor muscle dysfunction and rehabilitative exercise training in fibrotic interstitial lung disease: Where are we at and where could we go?

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract Exercise limitation is a cardinal feature of fibrotic interstitial lung disease arising from pulmonary gas exchange, respiratory mechanical and cardio‐circulatory abnormalities. More recently, it has been recognized that impairment in locomotor muscle function (e.g., reduced muscle mass/strength or heightened fatigability) might also play a ...

Bilateral Pectoralis Major Tendon Rupture While Performing Intermediate Level Bench Press [PDF]

, 2019
Simultaneous bilateral pectoralis major (PM) tendon rupture is a rare injury. To our knowledge, there have been only three previously reported cases of this type of injury.1–3 These patients sustained the injury while attempting a 360° turn on ...

Myocellular adaptations to short‐term weighted wheel‐running exercise are largely conserved during C26‐tumour induction in male and female mice

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigated whether performing a translatable murine model of concurrent training after tumour induction affects adaptations in juvenile male and female tumour‐bearing mice. Male and female Balb/c mice were injected bilaterally with colon‐26 adenocarcinoma (C26) cells or PBS at 8 weeks of age.
