- Use your fingers to blunt dissect the rhomboid muscles from the underlying fascia.
- Use scissors to detach the medial attachment of the rhomboid muscles from the spinous processes.
- Leave the rhomboid muscles attached to the medial border of the scapula (we will return to the rhomboid muscles when we dissect the upper extremity).
