A bursa is located between the acromion and the rotator cuff tendons. A bursa is a lubricated sac of tissue that cuts down on the friction between two moving parts. Bursae are located all over the body where tissues must rub against each other. In this case, the bursa protects the ...
It hooks under the acromion and holds the collarbone down, keeping tension off the ligaments while they heal. Anyone ever heard of this? By cliftonjh — On Apr 18, 2008 I separated my shoulder about a week ago, a supposed type 2, the swelling has now gone down significantly and my ...
removal of small piece of acromion that causing impingement or could lead to tear in future arthoscopic debridement; repair post operative immobilization varies by MD; PROM progresses to AROM - scapular plane of 30-45 abduction, limit passive to 120 flextion, 45 ER, no AROM/extension ...
16]. However, excessive external rotation at the glenohumeral joint—one of the pathomechanical mechanisms behind type II SLAP lesions—elongates the shoulder anterior
The main additional pathologies were bursitis (87%), type II鈥揑II acromion (Bigliani classification, 70%), and synovitis (47%). No statistical significance was found for any associations tested between the localization of the deposit and the documented pathologies. Conclusion Patients with ...

Most commonly for a subacromial injection, the skin entry point is 1 cm inferior to the acromion, and the needle is tracked anteriorly at a lateral to medial 45-degree angle in the axial plane and slightly superior (under the acromion). A 5- to 10-mL mixture of a local anesthetic-...
Type: Synovial plane joint. Articulation: This occurs between the acromion of the scapula and the lateral end of the clavicle. Capsule: This surrounds thejointand is attached to the margins of the articular surfaces. Ligaments: Superior and inferior acromioclavicular ligaments reinforce the c...
In fact, calcifications, acromion spurs, subacromial fluid, or signs of tendon degeneration are equally prevalent in healthy subjects and in individuals with shoulder pain (Milgrom et al. 1995). Furthermore, physical examination tests of subacromial impingement are not reliable (Hegedus et al. 2007...
