Dr. Chandrakala Agarwal, Dr. Arpit Kumar Mathur

Abstract :

The variations of the acromion process are important during surgery around the Shoulder joint. The knowledge regarding shape and various distances of acromion process might benefit the surgeons and provide a support to increase the knowledge about the disease that appears in this region. Aims and Objectives – the aim of the study is to record the morphometric values and morphology of the scapula. Material and Methods– Present study was conducted on 100 scapulae. Various morphological types of acromion process, different shapes of Glenoid cavity, suprascapular notch were observed and studied. Result – Commonly observed acromion process was of Type II Quadrangular. The main type glenoid cavity shape observed was oval. Type of suprascapular notch observed was type III.Conclusion – The study is helpful in the anthropology for racial and other investigations. It is important for clinicians for diagnosis and treatment of diseases of the shoulder joint.
