The Upper Extremity

There are four segments of the upper extremity 

• The shoulder
• Arm
• Forearm 
• Hand

The clavicle 

• The fracture that is most common in the body is a clavicle fracture beside the finger 
• The clavicle has a side that  has a lateral end attached to the acromion process of the scapula 
• The clavicle has that medial end that attaches to the manubrium in the sternum

Is the clavicle part of the appendicular or axial skeleton?

• It forms the top part of the appendicular skeleton but it articulates (attaches) to the axial skeleton at the sternoclavicular joint

• The likelihood of a shoulder dislocation is higher than a hip dislocation 
• X-ray needs to happen before and after the reduction
