Shoulder Joint
2
Shoulder Complex The Glenohumeral joint is the most mobile joint in the body. The shoulder complex consists of the scapula, clavicle, sternum, humerus and rib cage. The joints involved in the shoulder complex are the sternoclavicular joint, acromioclavicular joint, glenohumeral joint and scapulothoracic articulation. The shoulder girdle is defined as the scapula and clavicle. The shoulder joint is the articulation between the scapula and humerus at the glenoid fossa.
3
Shoulder Complex Motions available at the shoulder joint are flexion, extension, hyperextension, abduction, adduction, medial and lateral rotation, horizontal abduction and horizontal adduction.
