Muscles composing rotator cuff

MuscleOrigin on scapulaAttachment on humerusFunctionInnervation
Supraspinatus musclesupraspinous fossasuperior and middle facet of the greater tuberosityabducts the armSuprascapular nerve (C5)
Infraspinatus muscleinfraspinous fossamiddle facet of the greater tuberosityexternally rotates the armSuprascapular nerve (C5-C6)
Teres minor musclemiddle half of lateral borderinferior facet of the greater tuberosityexternally rotates the armAxillary nerve (C5)
Subscapularis musclesubscapular fossalesser tuberosity (60%) or humeral neck(40%)internally rotates thehumerusUpper and Lower subscapular nerve (C5-C6)
