Glenoid Cavity of Scapula in Indian population: A Morphometric Analysis
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Applied Medical Sciences - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 1
Abstract
Morphology of Glenoid cavity is variable among different population. Accordingly with the knowledge of dimensions of glenoid cavity a successful shoulder arthroplasty can be achieved with reduced complication. To study the morphology of glenoid cavity, 64 cadaveric specimens and 46 dry specimens of scapula were examined and dimensions were measured with digital vernier caliper. The glenoid cavities were shaped into oval, pear and comma according to the glenoid notch. In the present study we have found that, pear shape bearing the highest with a frequency of approx 53% followed by oval shape (33%) and inverted comma (14%). Both the antero-posterior diameter as well as the superior-inferior diameter was found less in Indian population compared to the other studies. These dimensions of glenoid cavity with different morphological variations among Indian population can be used for further references in anthropometry as well as in shoulder arthroplasty.
