intertubercular

Repeated blistering is beneficial, although it is doubtful if firing is of sufficient benefit in the average chronic case of intertubercular bursitis to justify the punishment which this form of treatment inflicts, unless infliction of pain is the thing sought, to enforce repose in restless subjects.

Lameness of the Horse Veterinary Practitioners' Series, No. 1 John Victor Lacroix

It ends in a quadrilateral tendon, about 7 cm. long, which passes in front of the tendon of the Teres major, and is inserted into the bottom of the intertubercular groove of the humerus; its insertion extends higher on the humerus than that of the tendon of the Pectoralis major.

The tubercles are separated from each other by a deep groove, the intertubercular groove (bicipital groove), which lodges the long tendon of the Biceps brachii and transmits a branch of the anterior humeral circumflex artery to the shoulder-joint.

II. Osteology. 6a. 3. The Humerus 1918

From the deepest fibers of this lamina at its insertion an expansion is given off which lines the intertubercular groove, while from the lower border of the tendon a third expansion passes downward to the fascia of the arm.

Its greatest diameter is, from the top of the intertubercular groove in a direction downward, medialward, and backward.

II. Osteology. 6a. 3. The Humerus 1918

By its passage along the intertubercular groove it assists in steadying the head of the humerus in the various movements of the arm.

III. Syndesmology. 6c. Humeral Articulation or Shoulder-joint 1918

It converts the intertubercular groove into a canal, and is the homologue of the strong process of bone which connects the summits of the two tubercles in the musk ox.

III. Syndesmology. 6c. Humeral Articulation or Shoulder-joint 1918

The upper border of Latissimus dorsi is almost horizontal, running from the spinous process of the seventh thoracic vertebra to the inferior angle of the scapula and thence somewhat obliquely to the intertubercular sulcus of the humerus; the lower border corresponds roughly to a line drawn from the iliac crest about 2 cm. from the lateral margin of the Sacrospinalis to the intertubercular sulcus.

XII. Surface Anatomy and Surface Markings. 12. Surface Markings of the Upper Extremity 1918

The tendon of the long head of the Biceps brachii passes through the capsule and is enclosed in a tubular sheath of synovial membrane, which is reflected upon it from the summit of the glenoid cavity and is continued around the tendon into the intertubercular groove as far as the surgical neck of the humerus (Fig. 327).

III. Syndesmology. 6c. Humeral Articulation or Shoulder-joint 1918

The intertubercular groove of the humerus is vertically below the acromioclavicular joint when the arm hangs by the side with the palm of the hand forward.
