Anatomy Head and Neck: The Ventral Neck Muscles
ثبت نشده
چکیده
Medical students must be informed as early as possible about this very important muscle group and additionally to origin, attachment and function they also have to be aware of innervation and possible pathologies. In medical terminology, this muscle group is also listed as prevertebral muscles, whereby only certain muscles actually fall into this subgroup. Regarding the segmental innervation there are different statements in literature which is also important to know. For medical students it is, therefore, to be recommended to take the most current version of muscle tables for learning assistance.

اثر دو روش تمرینی مختلف بر قدرت ایزومتریک عضلات اکستانسور سروگردن
Background and purpose: Strengthening the cervical extensor muscles is recommended as a way of prevention and treatment of neck pain. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of two different exercise protocols on isometric strength of the head and neck extensor muscles in healthy subjects. Material and Methods: In this study, a total of twenty-eight healthy females, 20-25 yea...
متن کاملMorphogenesis and Morphology of the Neck and Trunk Muscles in Humans
At about the 20-30 day of embryonic life "Somites" start to appear. In the middle of the fourth week the dorsal portion of each Somite differentiates into an epitheliallyarranged mass of cells called dermomyotome (from which the skin and muscles originate). The lateral part of the sermomyotome then proliferates to form dermatome (from ·which originates the derm and Hypoderm). The medial ...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to describe and compare the longitudinal mechanical activity, deformation, and deformation rate of the different layers of dorsal and ventral neck muscles in healthy volunteers during head lifts against gravity. METHODS The cross-sectional study included 19 healthy volunteers (mean age, 28 years; SD, 7 years). Ultrasound with speckle-tracking analysis was used to in...
متن کاملFrom fish to modern humans--comparative anatomy, homologies and evolution of the head and neck musculature.
In a recent paper Diogo (2008) reported the results of the first part of an investigation of the comparative anatomy, homologies and evolution of the head and neck muscles of osteichthyans (bony fish + tetrapods). That report mainly focused on actinopterygian fish, but also compared these fish with certain non-mammalian sarcopterygians. The present paper focuses mainly on sarcopterygians, and p...
متن کاملMuscular Arrangement and Muscle Attachment Sites in the Cervical Region of the American Barn Owl (Tyto furcata pratincola)
Owls have the largest head rotation capability amongst vertebrates. Anatomical knowledge of the cervical region is needed to understand the mechanics of these extreme head movements. While data on the morphology of the cervical vertebrae of the barn owl have been provided, this study is aimed to provide an extensive description of the muscle arrangement and the attachment sites of the muscles o...
