The scapula, commonly known as the shoulder blade, is a major bony component of the shoulder and functions to connect the upper extremity with the trunk of the body.
The scapula articulates with two other bones: laterally with the humerus at the glenoid cavity, and superiorly with the clavicle at the acromial process.
The scapula has two angles: the superior angle and inferior angle, and three borders: the medial border, the lateral border and the superior border - the shortest and thinnest. The scapula has several bony features, given its unique shape. On the anterior surface, there is the subscapular fossa - a broad concavity found on the ventral surface of the scapula. It serves an an attachment point for the subscapularis muscle.
