glenoidiikalvon
The glenoidiikalvon refers to the fibrous capsule that surrounds the glenohumeral joint, commonly described as the shoulder joint capsule. It is a loose, thin envelope that encloses the head of the humerus and the glenoid fossa of the scapula, allowing a wide range of motion while providing stability. The capsule attaches at the rim of the glenoid cavity and blends with the anatomical neck of the humerus, forming a synovial-lined sac that extends into an inferior recess known as the axillary pouch.
The outer fibrous layer of the capsule is reinforced by several ligaments. Anteriorly, the middle and inferior
Functionally, the glenoidiikalvon allows extensive mobility of the shoulder while resisting dislocation and excessive movement. It
Clinical notes mention that the capsule can be involved in injuries such as dislocations, capsular laxity,
