Description: These notes give a description of the Acromioclavicular Joint and Sternoclavicular Joint. They include the ligaments, along with their origin and insertion and the movement in which each ligament limits. They also include the classification of each joint, the articular surfaces with a description of them and the joint capsule. Each include images of the joints and their surfaces too.

The Shoulder Girdle Joints
Acromioclavicular Joint:
Ligament
Coracoclavicular:
Conoid and
Trapezoid
Origin
Coracoid process
Insertion
Underside of the
clavicle near the AC
joint
Movement limited
superior dislocation
Rotation of scapula
(important in
producing
longitudinal rotation
of the Clavicle
necessary for full
ROM during
elevation of the
upper extremity)
Conoid ligament
Trapezoid
Fan shaped component of the
Coracoclavicular Ligament
...
More lateral portion of the Coracoclavicular
Ligament, and is quadrilateral in shape
Articular surfaces
Classification
Synovial plane joint
• Lateral end of clavicle
and acromion- scapula
• Incomplete intraarticular disc placed
between the two bones
Capsule
Fibrous tissue
surrounds articular
margin
Sternoclavicular Joint:
Ligament
Interclavicular
Anterior
sternoclavicular
Costoclavicular
Posterior
sternoclavicular
ligament
Classification
Saddle- shaped
synovial, but
functionally a ball and
socket joint
Origin
Upper aspect of
sternal end of
clavicle
Insertion
Passes across
jugular notch to
fibres on the other
side and jugular
notch
Movement limited
Strengthens
capsule superiorly
Resists
...
first costal cartilage surface of the
Excessive superior,
near lateral end
