24 lip 2023 · Structure and Function. The shoulder girdle is composed of the clavicle and the scapula, which articulates with the proximal humerus of the upper limb. Four joints are present in the shoulder: the sternoclavicular (SC), acromioclavicular (AC), and scapulothoracic joints, and glenohumeral joint.
The shoulder girdle forms the connection between the spine, the thorax and the upper limb. It contains three primary artic-ulations, all directly related to the scapula: the acromioclavicu-lar joint, the sternoclavicular joint and the scapulothoracic gliding surface (see Putz, Fig. 289).
The shoulder girdle, consisting of the collar bone (clavicle) and the shoulder blade (scapula) provides the bony link between the arm and the trunk. The three joints of the shoulder girdle are constructed to allow a wide range of arm movement, at the expense of stability.
