30 Οκτ 2023 · The humerus is the longest and largest bone of the upper limb. It consists of a proximal end, a shaft and a distal end, all which contain important anatomical landmarks. The humerus articulates with the scapula proximally at the glenohumeral joint so it participates in the movements of the shoulder.
8 Οκτ 2024 · Rotator cuff muscles – surround the shoulder joint, attaching to the tuberosities of the humerus, whilst also fusing with the joint capsule. The resting tone of these muscles act to compress the humeral head into the glenoid cavity.
30 Οκτ 2023 · The glenohumeral joint is the articulation between the spherical head of the humerus and the concave glenoid fossa of the scapula. Being a synovial joint, both articular surfaces are covered with hyaline cartilage. The glenoid fossa is a shallow pear-shaped pit on the superolateral angle of scapula.

Introduction. Welcome to the fascinating world of humerus anatomy—a cornerstone in the realm of physiotherapy. Understanding the intricacies of the humerus, the long bone that forms the upper arm, is paramount for physiotherapists seeking to optimise patient care and rehabilitation.
26 Σεπ 2024 · Anatomy. The humerus can be divided into several parts. Proximal Aspect. The ball-shaped top of the humerus is called the humeral head. The humerus also has two large knobs near the top called the greater and lesser tubercles, which help the scapula provide movement and stability.
25 Οκτ 2024 · The rotator cuff consists of four muscles: supraspinatus, infraspinatus, subscapularis, and teres minor. Each of these muscles has its origin on the scapula and inserts around the head of the humerus. The tendons of these muscles surround and support the humerus while the contraction of the muscles rotates, adducts, or abducts the humerus.
