This slide is a description of my upcoming course in August 2023 on Upper Limb and Lower Limb Musculoskeletal Anatomy. Course lectures will be on zoom . There will be two courses one on upper limb anatomy and other on lower limb anatomy. In Upper limb course I will teach Shoulder, elbow, hand and wrist region. In lower limb course I will teach hip, knee, ankle and foot region. I will cover bones, muscles and tendons, ligaments, neuro vasculature. At the end we will have clinical practice scenarios and discussions.

15. A 40-year-old man presents to his general practitioner with a 3-day history of
reduced mobility in the left shoulder. He recently fractured his tibia and has
been mobilising well with crutches, but denies any injury to his shoulder.
On examination, there is reduced external rotation of the left shoulder. There
is minimally reduced flexion, extension and abduction of the shoulder.
What nerve is most likely to be implicated in this patient's presentation?
Axillary Nerve
Lateral Pectoralis Nerve
Spinal Accessory Nerve
Subscapular Nerve
Suprascapular nerve

Question:
16. Correct Answer:
Axillary Nerve
Reasoning:
This patient has reduced external rotation of the left shoulder
along with reduced flexion, extension and abduction. The teres
minor is an external rotator of the shoulder and the deltoid
muscle is involved in flexion, abduction and external rotation
of the shoulder via the anterior, lateral and posterior fibres of
the muscle. Both the teres minor and deltoid muscles are
innervated by the axillary nerve. A common mechanism of
injury to the axillary nerve is damage from compression (e.g.
long-term use of crutches).
