The humerus (/ ˈ h juː m ər ə s /; pl.: humeri) is a long bone in the arm that runs from the shoulder to the elbow.It connects the scapula and the two bones of the lower arm, the radius and ulna, and consists of three sections.
[3] During abduction, the greater tubercle of the humerus comes in contact with the upper margin of the glenoid cavity, which limits maximum abduction. By rotating the humerus laterally, this contact is delayed because the greater tubercle is pulled back so that the bicipital groove faces the coracoacromial ligament. This slightly slackens the ...
The anatomical neck of the humerus is obliquely directed, forming an obtuse angle with the body of the humerus. It represents the fused epiphyseal plate. It represents the fused epiphyseal plate. [ 1 ]
It is the thickenings of the capsule that passes from the upper part of glenoid to lesser tuberosity and inferior part of the head of humerus. These ligaments are weak unlike its posterior part which is supported by the infraspinatus muscle. [4] Coracohumeral ligament [4] Transverse humeral ligament [4] Coraco-acromial ligament [7]
The olecranon fossa is located on the posterior side of the distal humerus. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The joint capsule of the elbow attaches to the humerus just proximal to the olecranon fossa.
In human anatomy, the deltoid tuberosity is a rough, triangular [1] area on the antero lateral (front-side) surface of the middle of the humerus. [2] It is a site of attachment of deltoid muscle . [ 2 ]
