It also helps stabilize the humeral head in the glenoid cavity.

A chest x-ray should be taken to confirm whether the head of humerus has reduced back into the glenoid cavity.

Approximately its 4 to 1 disproportion between the large head of the humerus and the shallow glenoid cavity.

The name infraglenoid tubercle refers to its location below the glenoid cavity.

Tears are classified as either superior or inferior in regards to where the tear is in the glenoid cavity.

Compared to the acetabulum (hip-joint) the glenoid cavity is relatively shallow.

It is a small, rough projection superior to the glenoid cavity near the base of the coracoid process.

Glenoid cavity (more common)

A metal ball is used to replace the humeral head and a plastic socket replaces the cartilage on the glenoid cavity.

The humerus is held in place with in the glenoid cavity by means of the long head of the bicep tendon.

When the scapula is moved medially it lies in a frontal plane with the glenoid cavity facing directly laterally.

Immediately below the glenoid cavity is a rough impression, the infraglenoid tuberosity, about 2.5 cm.

It begins above at the lower margin of the glenoid cavity, and inclines obliquely downward and backward to the inferior angle.

The Glenoid Cavity is also the point of origin for the muscle: Triceps Brachii.

The glenohumeral joint is the articulation between the head of the humerus and the glenoid cavity of the scapula.

It is directed upward, medialward, and a little backward, and articulates with the glenoid cavity of the scapula.

This tendon originates on the superior margin of the glenoid cavity and loops over the shoulder bracing humerus against the cavity.

They work together to tilt the Scapula to a position that makes the glenoid cavity point superiorly enabling the last degrees of abduction of the shoulder.

In this form of jaw joint, the dentary forms a connection with a depression in the squamosal known as the glenoid cavity.

The rotator cuff also reinforces this joint more specifically with the supraspinatus tendon to hold the head of the humerus in the glenoid cavity.

The infraglenoid tubercle is a tubercle located on the lateral part of the scapula, inferior to (below) the glenoid cavity.

Ossification of the body begins about the second month of fetal life, by an irregular quadrilateral plate of bone forming, immediately behind the glenoid cavity.

During abduction the greater tubercle of the humerus comes in contact with the upper margin of the glenoid cavity, which limits maximum abduction.

Further, an epiphysial plate appears for the lower part of the glenoid cavity, and the tip of the coracoid process frequently has a separate nucleus.

Before these two areas are completely fixed together, the condyles of the mandible should be applied to the glenoid cavities, checking to see that the teeth occlude properly.

It also helps stabilize the humeral head in the glenoid cavity.
