Lesions to the supraspinous ligament may result in palpable thickening. [5] Ultrasound is effective for detecting lesions. [5] [6] A strain injury can also damage the supraspinous ligament. [7] The supraspinous ligament creates resistance during midline epidural anaesthetics when the needle is being inserted.
This ligament is analogous in function (but different in exact structural detail) to the nuchal ligament found in ungulates. [8] This ligament allows dogs to carry their heads while running long distances, such as while following scent trails with their nose to the ground, without expending much energy. [8]
This ligament is analogous in function (but different in exact structural detail) to the nuchal ligament found in ungulates. [15] This ligament allows dogs to carry their heads while running long distances, such as while following scent trails with their nose to the ground, without expending much energy. [15]
It then runs along the superior border of the scapula through the suprascapular canal, [1] in which it enters via the suprascapular notch inferior to the superior transverse scapular ligament and enters the supraspinous fossa. [2]
Subacromial bursitis is a condition caused by inflammation of the bursa that separates the superior surface of the supraspinatus tendon (one of the four tendons of the rotator cuff) from the overlying coraco-acromial ligament, acromion, and coracoid (the acromial arch) and from the deep surface of the deltoid muscle. [1]
The rhomboid major is a skeletal muscle of the back that connects the scapula with the vertebrae of the spinal column. [1] It originates from the spinous processes of the thoracic vertebrae T2–T5 and supraspinous ligament; it inserts onto the lower portion of the medial border of the scapula. [2]
The rotator interval is a triangular space in the shoulder that is functionally reinforced externally by the coracohumeral ligament and internally by the superior glenohumeral ligament, and traversed by the intra-articular biceps tendon. On imaging, it is defined by the coracoid process at its base, the supraspinatus tendon superiorly and the ...
