Coracohumeral Ligament

Coracohumeral Ligament

The coracohumeral Ligament is a strong fibrous band within the shoulder joint, connecting the coracoid process of the scapula to the greater tubercle of the humerus. It forms part of the joint capsule and contributes to the stability of the glenohumeral joint. This ligament is part of the intricate network of structures that make up the shoulder's capsule and ligamentous system. It helps limit excessive external rotation and inferior translation of the humerus, supporting the overall stability of the shoulder during various movements. Injuries to the coracohumeral ligament are less common than those to other shoulder ligaments, but trauma or overuse can lead to strains or tears. Understanding the anatomy and function of the coracohumeral ligament is crucial in orthopaedics, particularly in the evaluation and treatment of shoulder instability or related conditions. Knowledge of the coracohumeral ligament is essential for orthopaedic surgeons and healthcare professionals when considering surgical interventions or rehabilitative approaches for shoulder injuries and instabilities.
