Abstract:Introduction: The coracoacromial arch, which extends laterally over the shoulder joint, is formed by the acromion process, coracoid process, and coracoacromial ligament. The acromion process plays an important role in shoulder joint formation. Morphological variations of the acromion process play a key role in determining the subacromial space. Acromioplasty is an important step in rotator cuff repair. Aim: To investigate the morphometry of the acromion process in dry human scapulae and determine the various … Show more
