|
|
Term
| STERNOCLAVICULAR LIGAMENT |
|
Definition
| connects the clavicle to the sternum on both anterior and posterior surfaces; reinforces joint capsule |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| connects the inferior surface of clavicle to the superior surface of the costal cartilage of rib 1; limits clavicular elevation |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| connects the sternal ends of both clavicles across the superior aspect of the manubrium; limits clavicular depression |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| articulation b/w the scapula and the clavicle |

Term
| LIGAMENTS THE SUPPORT THE ACROMIOCLAVICULAR JOINT |
|
Definition
| acromioclavicular ligament, coracoclavicular ligament, coracoacromial ligament |
|
|
Term
| ACROMIOCLAVICULAR LIGAMENT |
|
Definition
| connects the acromion to the clavicle; prevents the posterior dislocation of clavicle |
|
|
Term
| CORACOCLAVICULAR LIGAMENT |
|
Definition
| connects the coracoid to the inferior clavicle; prevents posterior motion of the scapula and limits scapular upward rotation |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
| connects two bony landmarks on the same bone: coracoids and acromion of the scapula; forms the coracoacromial arch to protect the rotator cuff tends and subacromial bursa from direct trauma from the acromion |
