  • Considered a Bone of Both Shoulder Girdle and Shoulder Joint. the Shoulder Girdle Is Comprised of the Clavicle and the Scapula
    Considered a bone of both shoulder girdle and shoulder joint. The shoulder girdle is comprised of the clavicle and the scapula. The shoulder joint consists of the scapula and the humerus. The primary function of the shoulder girdle is to position itself to accommodate movements of the shoulder joint. 1 Superior angle—top point Inferior angle—bottom point Vertebral border—side closest to vertebral column Axillary border—side closest to arm Subscapular fossa—anterior fossa Glenoid fossa, glenoid labrum, glenoid cavity --The glenoid fossa is the shallow cavity where the humeral head goes. The glenoid labrum is the cartilage that goes around the glenoid fossa. So the glenoid fossa and glenoid labrum together comprise the glenoid cavity. Supraspinous fossa—posterior, fossa above the spine Spine of the scapula—the back projection Infraspinous fossa—posterior depression/fossa below spine Coracoid process—anterior projection head Acromion process—posterior projection head above spine 2 Scapulothoracic “joint” = NOT a true joint; there are no ligaments or articular capsule. The scapula just rests on the muscle over top the rib cage, which allows for passive movements. Sternoclavicular joint=where the clavicle (collarbone) and the sternum (breastbone) articulate; movement is slight in all directions and of a gliding, rotational type Acromioclavicular joint = where the clavicle and scapula (acromion process) articulate; AKA: AC Joint; movement is a slight gliding when elevation and depression take place. Glenohumeral joint = the shoulder joint 3 4 All 3 true joints: Sternoclavicular, AC and glenohumeral (GH) all work together to move arm in all directions. The GH allows the arm to go out to the side and be abducted, then the AC and Sternoclavicular joints kick in to allow the arm to go above shoulder level by allowing the shoulderblade to move up to increase the range of motion (ROM).

  • Chapter 5 Upper Limb Anatomy Bones and Joints
    Chapter 5 Upper limb anatomy Bones and joints Scapula Costal Surface The costal (anterior) surface of the scapula faces the ribcage. It contains a large concave depression over most of its surface, known as the subscapular fossa. The subscapularis (rotator cuff muscle) originates from this fossa. Originating from the superolateral surface of the costal scapula is the coracoid process. It is a hook-like projection, which lies just underneath the clavicle. Three muscles attach to the coracoid process: the pectoralis minor, coracobrachialis, the short head of biceps brachii. Acromion Coracoid process Glenoid fossa Subscapular fossa © teachmeanatomy Lateral surface • Glenoid fossa - a shallow cavity, located superiorly on the lateral border. It articulates with the head of the humerus to form the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint. • Supraglenoid tubercle - a roughening immediately superior to the glenoid fossa. The place of attachment of the long head of the biceps brachii. • Infraglenoid tubercle - a roughening immediately inferior to the glenoid fossa. The place of attachment of the long head of the triceps brachii. Supraglenoid tubercle Glenoid fossa Infraglenoid tubercle gn teachmeanatomy Posterior surface • Spine - the most prominent feature of the posterior scapula. It runs transversely across the scapula, dividing the surface into two. • Acromion - projection of the spine that arches over the glenohumeral joint and articulates with the clavicle at the acromioclavicular joint. • Infraspinous fossa - the area below the spine of the scapula, it displays a convex shape. The infraspinatus muscle originates from this area. • Supraspinous fossa - the area above the spine of the scapula, it is much smaller than the infraspinous fossa, and is more convex in shape.The supraspinatus muscle originates from this area.

ROTATOR CUFF PATHOLOGY The three most common types of rotator cuff pathology are tendinitis, tendinosus, and tearing. Excessive physi- cal stress placed on the rotator cuff tendon can cause ir- ritation and inflammation of the tendon, in other words, tendinitis. If the physical stress is chronic, the inflam- matory process often subsides and degeneration of the fascial tendinous tissue occurs; this is referred to as tendinosus. The degeneration of tendinosus results in weakness of the tendon’s structure, and with continued Teres minor physical stress, whether it is overuse microtrauma or a macrotrauma, a rotator cuff tendon tear might occur.

  • The Critical Shoulder Angle As a Diagnostic Measure for Osteoarthritis and Rotator Cuff Pathology

Moorefield 1 , Derek Schirmer 1 , Eugene Ismailov 1 , Rob Downing 2 , Barth W. Wright 1 1. Anatomy, Kansas City University of Medicine and Biosciences, Kansas City, USA 2. Graduate Medical Education, University of Missouri-Kansas City (UMKC), Kansas City, USA Corresponding author: Amanda K. Moorefield, [email protected] Abstract The purpose of this study was to correlate critical shoulder angle (CSA), a measurement that takes into account both glenoid tilt and the acromial index (AI), with shoulder pathologies as presented in an earlier study by Moor et al. (2013). Based on Moor et al.’s predicted normal CSA range of 30-35°, we hypothesized that a greater-than-normal CSA would be correlated to or associated with rotator cuff pathology, while a smaller-than-normal CSA would be associated with osteoarthritis (OA). Following Moore et al., we utilized Grashey radiographic imaging because it provides the clearest view of the entire glenoid fossa and acromion. We analyzed 323 anterior-posterior (AP) radiographs to identify and measure the CSA, classifying each patient into one of five groups [none reported (n=94), mild OA (n=156), moderate OA (n=36), severe OA (n=37), and rotator cuff pathology (n=40)]. Our results were statistically significant, supporting the association of smaller CSAs with OA and larger CSAs with rotator cuff pathology. CSA measurements could provide a new means for identifying shoulder pathology and thereby reduce the need for costly and timely imaging techniques.
