GEOMETRIC MORPHOMETRY OF GLENOID CAVITY IN DRY ADULT SCAPULA AND ITS RADIOLOGICAL, SURGICAL,ORTHOPAEDIC AND ANTHROPOMETRIC SIGNIFICANCE

Shabana Sultana, Mrudula Chandrupatla

Abstract :

 Introduction: Morphometric study of variable shape and size of Glenoid cavity of scapula was done. As Anatomy of Glenoid cavity is important

for orthopaedic surgeons, radiologists and prosthetic designers. The curvature of glenoid rim differs with morphology of glenoid laum.
Anatomical variations of glenoid cavity are important for understanding the various pathologies involved in surgical cases(1). Detailed anatomy
and morphometry of the scapula were obtained to provide scapular Anatomy and functions, describe its radiological features, co relating with
information for surgical procedures such as hardware fixation, Laterjet surgery, drill hole placement, arthroscopic portal placement, and prosthetic
positioning. Glenoid cavity dimensions were taken in three different planes–supero–inferiorly,antero–posteriorly above and below.(2)
