the shoulder girdle may impair significantly its function leading to decreased dexterity of the whole upper limb (Rockwood 2009; Terry and Chopp 2000). Aim The goal of this review was to present the anatomy and function of scapula and its re - lations to the other elements of the shoul-der girdle. The idea was to particularly
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).

Chapter 4 The Shoulder Girdle and Shoulder Joints . The shoulder complex links the axial skeleton with the upper limb. In man, the upper limb has been liberated from its original weight-bearing function and has undergone adaptive changes allowing pre hension.
The shoulder permits a wide range of humeral movement which, coupled with hinge move-ment at the elbow joint to regulate distance from the body, permits the hand to be placed into an almost spherical potential space. The glenohumeral joint is the articulation that primarily endows the shoulder with its huge range of movement, but this is achieved
This chapter is divided into three main sections. The first section reviews the structure and function of the shoulder complex. The second section describes common shoulder disorders and provides guidelines for conservative and postsurgical management.
