Short description: Muscles that extend between the axial and (superior or inferior) appendicular skeletons
The Axioappendicular muscles are the muscles that extend between the axial and (superior or inferior) appendicular skeletons. There are two groups, the anterior axioappendicular muscles and the posterior axioappendicular muscles.
Anterior axioappendicular muscles
The anterior axioappendicular muscles are the:[1][2]
- Pectoralis major
- Pectoralis minor
- Subclavius
- Serratus anterior
Posterior axioappendicular muscles
The posterior axioappendicular muscles are described as two sub-groups:[1][3]
- Superficial Posterior Axioappendicular muscles (or the extrinsic shoulder muscles)
- Trapezius
- Latissimus dorsi
