Coracohumeral ligament

Attaches from the lateral side of the coracoid process and spans the joint anteriorly to the medial side of the greater tubercle. Helps strengthen the upper part of the joint capsule.

Motion possible at shoulder joint

Glenohumeral ligaments

Poorly defined ligaments that actually are pleated folds of the capsule and reinforces the anterior portion of the capsule.

Joint capsule

The thin-walled, spacious container that attaches around the rim of the glenoid fossa of the scapula and the anatomic neck of the humerus. -formed by outer fibrous membrane & inner syn0vial membrane -when arm is hanging, superior part of capsule is taut, inferior is slack -when shoulder is abducted, inferior is taut, superior is slack

Acromioclavicular separation

Midhumeral fractures

Caused by a direct blow or a twisting force to the humerus, spiral fractures in this region increase risk of radial nerve injury as it passes close to the bone

Calcific tendonitis

Chronic inflammation of the supraspinatus tendon can lead to an accumulation of mineral deposits, may be asymptomatic or quite painful

Anterior shoulder dislocations

Common injury caused by a forced shoulder abduction and lateral rotation tends to be the dislocating motion causing the humeral head to slide anteriorly out of the glenoid fossa
