Thoracicohumeral
Means relating to the thorax (chest) and the humerus. The humerus is the longest bone in the upper arm. It extends from the shoulder to the elbow. Thoracicohumeral comes from the Greek word "thorax" meaning "chest," and the Latin word "humerus" meaning "shoulder." Put the two words together and you have "chest (and) shoulder."
