Subacromial and subdeltoid bursa Help to separate the supraspinatus and the head of humerus from the coracoid process and deltoid muscle. Bursa may be separate but commonly are continuous with each other. This permits smooth gliding movement of the humeral head and supraspinatus tendon Interruption of this mechanism is a common cause of pain.

are subacromial and subdeltoid bursa • Help to separate the supraspinatus and the head of humerus from the acromion, coracoid process and the deltoid muscle • Bursa may be separate but commonly are continuous with each other and referred to as Subacromial Bursa • This permits smooth gliding movement of humerus and supraspinatus tendon • Interruption of this mechanism is a common cause of pain • Subacromial bursitis is most commonly secondary to inflammation or degeneration of the supraspinatus tendon Coracoacromial Arch/supra humeral arch: • Formed by the coracoid process, acromion and the coracoacromial ligament • An osteoligamentous vault that covers humeral head and forms a space within which the subacromial bursa, supraspinatus tendon and a portion of the long head of the biceps lie • It protects these structures from direct trauma, such trauma could simply be carrying a heavy bag on the shoulder • The arch also prevents the upward dislocation of the head of the humerus. If this were to occur it would cause impingement of all the structures lying in the supra humeral space • Narrowing of the space could also result from iii. Change in the shape of the acromion inferiorly iv. Change in the slope of the acromion v. AC joint osteophytes or large coracoacromial ligament Glenohumeral Motions: • Motions occurring at glenohumeral junction can be understood in two phases • Osteokinematics and Arthrokinematics Osteokinematics : • 3° of freedom : flexion/extension, medial/lateral rotation, abduction / adduction • ROM – flexion - 1200, extension - 500 • ROM of medial / lateral rotation varies and depends on arm position • With arm by the side, range could be limited to 500 as compared to 1200 when the arm is in 900 abduction • The restricted arc of medial and lateral rotation when the arm is by the side is due to the impact of the lesser tubercle on the anterior glenoid fossa in medial rotation, and the impact of greater tubercle on the acromion in lateral rotation • When the arm is abducted these bony restrictions play little role so the checks of motion become capsular and muscular • Range of abduction depends whether the arm is neutral, medially or laterally rotated • In neutral range of abduction is 900 • In medial rotation the humerus will not abduct on the glenoid fossa beyond 600, restriction to abduction is due to impingement of greater tubercle on the coracoacromial arch • When the humerus is laterally rotated by 30-450, the greater tubercle passes under or behind the arch thus prevents the impingement of the greater tubercle on the coracoacromial arch and so abduction can continue unimpeded up to 1800 Plane of scapula: • Plane lies through the resting scapula which is 30º – 40º anterior to the frontal plane • Abduction in plane of scapula – scpation • When humerus elevates in this plane there is presumably less restriction to motion because the capsule is less twisted Arthrokinematics: • Glenoid fossa and humeral head are incongruent,the convex humeral head is a substantially large surface and may have a different radius of curvature than the shallow concave fossa • Given this incongruence, rotations of the joint do not occur as pure spins, but have changing centers of rotation and shifting contact surfaces • Elevation of the humerus requires the humeral head to glide inferiorly in a direction opposite to movement of the shaft of the humerus • For eg. Abduction of humerus would cause a superior rolling of humeral head on the fossa • The humeral head would soon run out of glenoid fossa and the head would impact the coracoacromial arch • If head glides inferiorly while it rolls up on fossa full ROM can be achieved • Additionally humeral head may glide anteriorly, posteriorly, medially or laterally on the fossa
