  2. Scapula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scapula

    3d model of scapula, along with annotations showing the various parts of the scapula Front or subscapular fossa. The front of the scapula (also known as the costal or ventral surface) has a broad concavity called the subscapular fossa, to which the subscapularis muscle attaches. The medial two-thirds of the fossa have 3 longitudinal oblique ...

  3. Shoulder joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder_joint

    Cross-section of shoulder joint. The shoulder joint is a ball-and-socket joint between the scapula and the humerus. The socket of the glenoid fossa of the scapula is itself quite shallow, but it is made deeper by the addition of the glenoid labrum. The glenoid labrum is a ring of cartilaginous fibre attached to the circumference of the cavity.

  4. Glenoid labrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenoid_labrum

    The shoulder joint is considered a ball-and-socket joint. However, in bony terms the 'socket' (the glenoid fossa of the scapula) is quite shallow and small, covering at most only a third of the 'ball' (the head of the humerus). The socket is deepened by the glenoid labrum, stabilizing the shoulder joint. [1] [2]

  5. Axillary joints - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axillary_joints

    The shoulder joint also known as the glenohumeral joint is a synovial ball and socket joint. The shoulder joint involves articulation between the glenoid cavity of the scapula (shoulder blade) and the head of the upper arm bone and functions as a diarthrosis and multiaxial joint. Due to the very loose joint capsule that gives a limited ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shoulder

    Cross-section of shoulder joint. The shoulder joint (also known as the glenohumeral joint) is the main joint of the shoulder. [1] It is a ball and socket joint that allows the arm to rotate in a circular fashion or to hinge out and up away from the body. It is formed by the articulation between the head of the humerus and the lateral scapula ...

  7. Glenohumeral ligaments - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glenohumeral_ligaments

    The most important ligament involved in shoulder joint stability is the Inferior Glenohumeral Ligament. During abduction of the arm, the middle and inferior ligaments become taut while the superior ligament relaxes. The radius of curvature of the head of the humerus is greater superiorly than inferiorly, which further stretches these ligaments ...

  9. Capsule of the glenohumeral joint - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capsule_of_the_gleno...

    The capsule of the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint is the articular capsule of the shoulder.It completely surrounds the joint. It is attached above to the circumference of the glenoid cavity beyond the glenoidal labrum, and below to the anatomical neck of the humerus, approaching nearer to the articular cartilage above than in the rest of its extent.
