The deltoid muscle is the muscle [1] forming the rounded contour of the human shoulder. It is also known as the 'common shoulder muscle', particularly in other animals such as the domestic cat. Anatomically, the deltoid muscle is made up of three distinct sets of muscle fibers, namely the anterior or clavicular part (pars clavicularis)
The coracoid process of the scapula is not subcutaneous; It is covered by the anterior border of the deltoid. However, the tip of the coracoid process can be felt on deep palpation on the lateral aspect of the clavipectoral triangle. The coracoid process is used as a bony landmark when performing a brachial plexus block.
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 ]

The coracoid process acts as an attachment and origin for a large number of muscles (attached muscles not labeled here). The coracoid process is a thick curved process attached by a broad base to the upper part of the neck of the scapula; [2] it runs at first upward and medially; then, becoming smaller, it changes its direction, and projects forward and laterally.
