NB: affects lower spinal nerve #
Degeneration of annulus fibrosis followed by *sudden compression* of nucleus pulposus
What is the difference b/w *retrolisthesis* and *spondylolisthesis*? - Answer- Retro - backwards movement of vertebral bone
Spondylo - forward movement of bone
What is *lordosis*? - Answer- exaggerated *L*umbar curvature
What is *kyphosis*? - Answer- exaggerated thoracic curvature (can be seen w/osteoporosis)

What structures will be affected by a fracture at *supracondylar region of humerus*? - Answer- median nerve and brachial artery
What are differences b/w *Colles'* and *Smith's* Fractures? - Answer- Both are distal radial fractures
Smith's - flexion fracture (distal segment anterior)
Colles' - extension fracture (distal segment posterior/dorsal) - incl. avulced ulnar styloid process What are the carpal bones? - Answer- Some Lovers Try Positions That They Can't Handle

Suprascapular N.
Axillary N.
Upper/Lower Subscapular N.
What muscle (+ nerve) initiates abduction of upper limb? - Answer- 0°-15° by *supraspinatus* (suprascapular nerve)
What muscle (+ nerve) allow for abduction b/w 15° - 110°? - Answer- *deltoid* (axillary nerve)
What muscle (+ nerve) allow for abduction above horizontal position? - Answer- *trapezius* (CN XI) and *serratus anterior* (Long Thoracic N.)
What is tennis elbow? - Answer- AKA lateral epicondylitis; painful inflammation of common extensor tendon -> lateral epicondyle
What is golfer's elbow - Answer- AKA medial epicondylitis; inflammation of common *flexor* tendon
What are the arterial anastomoses around the scapula? - Answer- Problem: blockage of
subclavian or axillary a.
Sol'n: anastomoses b/w branches of *subscapular a.* and *thyrocervical trunk*
