A consensus is beginning to emerge about the indications for fixation of fractures involving the glenoid fossa of the scapula. The same cannot be firmly said for extra-articular fractures of the blade or the processes of the scapula, with a good deal of reliance on expert opinion from high-volume centres.

Medium to long-term outcome of thoracoscapular arthrodesis with screw fixation for facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy [PDF]
Background: Shoulder girdle muscle weakness is the most constant feature of facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy and leads to scapular winging. Mechanical fixation of the scapula to the thoracic wall provides a stable fulcrum on which the deltoid ...

The pectoralis minor muscle and shoulder movement-related impairments and pain: Rationale, assessment and management [PDF]
The adaptive shortening or tightness of the pectoralis minor muscle (PMm) is one of the potential biomechanical mechanisms associated with altered scapular alignment at rest and scapular motion during arm elevation (scapular dyskinesis) in patients with ...

Real-time simulation of three-dimensional shoulder girdle and arm dynamics [PDF]
Electrical stimulation is a promising technology for the restoration of arm function in paralyzed individuals. Control of the paralyzed arm under electrical stimulation, however, is a challenging problem that requires advanced controllers and command ...

Attempted DNA extraction from a Rancho La Brea Columbian mammoth (Mammuthus columbi): prospects for ancient DNA from asphalt deposits. [PDF]
Fossil-bearing asphalt deposits are an understudied and potentially significant source of ancient DNA. Previous attempts to extract DNA from skeletons preserved at the Rancho La Brea tar pits in Los Angeles, California, have proven unsuccessful, but it ...

Background Two techniques exist from which all 3D preoperative planning software for total shoulder arthroplasty are based. One technique is based on measurements constructed on the mid-glenoid and scapular landmarks (Landmark).

The scapular musculature is often neglected in designing a rehabilitation protocol for the shoulder. Weakness of the scapular stabilizers and resultant altered biomechanics could result in: 1) abnormal stresses to the anterior capsular structures of the shoulder, 2) increased possibility of rotator cuff compression, and 3) decreased performance.

GROSS AND MORPHOMETRICAL STUDIES ON SCAPULA OF STUMP-TAILED MACAQUE (MACACA ARCTOIDES) [PDF]
The scapula was a flat triangular bone with three borders, three angles and two surfaces. Dorsal border was slightly convex and undulating whereas cranial border was much convex and thinner and ended up distally forming a distinct notch.

Excision of Masson’s Haemangioma Following Suspected Liposarcoma on Imaging [PDF]
Lipomas are commonly seen in general practice. Lipomas of large size should be investigated for the possibility of a soft tissue sarcoma. Intravascular papillary endothelial hyperplasia (Masson’s haemangioma) is a benign non-neoplastic vascular lesion ...
