Description
What this equipment is and what it's designed for.
This 3D printed specimen highlights the origin, course, and insertion of the biceps brachii muscle, while most other arm and shoulder muscle bellies have been removed to enhance visibility.
Biceps Brachii: Origins and Insertion
The long head of the biceps originates from the supraglenoid tubercle (not visible) and travels through the bicipital groove, while the short head arises from the coracoid process. The bifid insertion is clearly shown: the bicipital aponeurosis and the round tendon wrapping around the radius to insert on the radial tuberosity.
Shoulder Region Structures
Several preserved elements are visible around the shoulder joint, including partial stumps or tendons of the subclavius, subscapularis, pectoralis major, teres minor, infraspinatus, long head of triceps, and latissimus dorsi. The teres major tendon lies along the medial lip, and the pectoralis major tendon along the lateral lip of the bicipital groove.
Also preserved are key shoulder ligaments:
– Coracoclavicular ligament
– Coracoacromial ligament
– Coracohumeral ligament
– Capsules of the shoulder and acromioclavicular joints
The supraspinatus is the only complete rotator cuff muscle retained, and the suprascapular ligament is seen bridging the suprascapular notch.
Elbow Joint Anatomy
At the elbow, the joint capsule, annular ligament of the radius, and radial collateral ligaments are visible. The ulnar collateral ligament is not shown due to retention of both heads of flexor carpi ulnaris.
This model is ideal for studying biceps anatomy, shoulder tendon insertions, and key ligamentous structures of the shoulder and elbow joints, making it a valuable tool for anatomical education and demonstration.
What you learn
Anatomical model modality. The competencies this equipment trains, in the language of the training plan.
- Relate muscle, bone and ligament within a single upper limb model.
- Identify the insertions of the biceps and its action on the elbow.
- Recognise the ligaments that stabilise the elbow and the shoulder.
- Explain the injury mechanism from the anatomy.
Cases and pathologies
The clinical scenarios that can be simulated with this equipment.
- Distal biceps tendon rupture.
- Elbow dislocation and ligament injury.
- Humeral fractures involving the muscle insertions.
- Rehabilitation after upper limb injury.
Features and what's included
What the equipment does and what comes in the box, as described by the manufacturer.
Features
- 3D printed replica made from radiological data or from a dissected cadaveric specimen, not a stylised model: this is real anatomy.
- Developed and checked by the anatomists of the Human Anatomy Teaching Centre at Monash University.
- Colourised to distinguish muscle, nerve, artery, vein and bone, and to separate territories or segments.
- Not human tissue: no restrictions on transport, import or use in institutions without permission to work with cadavers.
- Avoids the ethical and preservation problems that come with plastination.
- Supplied with a detailed description of the anatomy represented in the specimen.
Services for this equipment
Services matter: the equipment gets commissioned, the staff know how to use it and maintenance is settled before you start. Include them in your budget and avoid having to raise a second purchase.
