A study of anatomical basis of Coraco-Acromial arch impingement

Journal Title: MedPulse -International Medical Journal - Year 2017, Vol 4, Issue 5

Abstract

This Study Was carried out to study the morphology of Coraco-Acromial arch and to consider the functional implications of the structure of the arch. For this study 100 Dry Scapulae are taken. Out of which 60 scapulae are normal and 40 scapulae showing degenerative changes, Photographs of lateral view of scapulae taken and measurement is done by sliding callipers and semi rigid model wax used to simulate the Coraco-Acromial arch. In this study we found degenerative changes generally limited to the anterior third of the acromion. Spurs were present in 14 scapulae, pseudo articular facets were present in 31 scapulae. all our findings compared with those of previous workers
