    The quadratus lumborum muscle originates by aponeurotic fibers into the iliolumbar ligament and the internal lip of the iliac crest for about 5 centimetres (2.0 in).

    These tears are called SLAP lesions (superior labrum; anterior, posterior). This sign is specifically seen in type 3 SLAP lesions, which involve a "bucket-handle" tear of predominately the anterior labrum, often with displacement into the joint. On CT, this appears as a ring of contrast material and air surrounding a core of soft tissue. [2]

  8. Dead arm syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dead_arm_syndrome

    The next step is tightness of the posterior capsule called posterior capsular contracture. This type of problem reduces the amount the shoulder can rotate inwardly. Over time, with enough force, a tear may develop in the labrum. The labrum is a rim of cartilage around the shoulder socket to help hold the head of the humerus (upper arm) in the ...
