The anatomical neck of the humerus is a constriction just below the head of the humerus bone where it joins the greater and lesser tubercles. It serves as the attachment site for the joint capsule and the ligaments that stabilize the shoulder joint. While it is an anatomical landmark, it does not have a direct function in terms of movement or muscle attachment.

Actually, the anatomic neck of the humerus is proximal to the surgical neck of the humerus. The anatomic neck is the slightly constricted region below the head of the humerus, while the surgical neck is the region of the humerus prone to fractures located distal to the tubercles.

The surgical neck of the humerus is called as such because it is a common site for fractures that often require surgery to fix. Injuries to this region can affect important structures like the axillary nerve and the posterior humeral circumflex artery, making surgery necessary to manage complications.

The epiphyseal line on the humerus is also known as the line of fusion or the metaphyseal scar. This line represents the site where the growth plate has fused and bone growth has ceased.

The anatomic neck of the humerus bone is the constriction below the head of the bone, while the surgical neck is a narrower part located below the tubercles.

The humerus articulates with the scapula at the glenoid fossa to form the shoulder joint. Specifically, the head of the humerus sits in the shallow, concave glenoid cavity of the scapula. This ball-and-socket joint allows for a wide range of motion in the shoulder.

The angle of inclination of the humerus is approximately 135 degrees, measuring the angle between the shaft of the humerus and the anatomical neck when viewed from the front. This angle is important for assessing shoulder joint stability and function. Any deviations from this angle can affect the biomechanics of the shoulder joint.

No, the medial epicondyle is not adjacent to the trochlea. The medial epicondyle is located on the inner side of the distal end of the humerus bone, while the trochlea is a groove on the distal end of the humerus that articulates with the ulna.

When the upper limb is placed in anatomical position, the humerus is the bone superior to ulna and radius. Radius is lateral to the ulna, with which it forms superior and inferior radio-ulna joints.

The humerus is the long bone in the upper arm of animals, including humans. It connects the shoulder to the elbow joint and plays a key role in movement and support of the forelimb.

Yes, the thumb is proximal to the forefinger. In anatomical terms, "proximal" refers to a structure being closer to the point of attachment or origin, so the thumb, being closer to the hand/wrist, is proximal to the forefinger.

Most fractures of the humerus occur in the middle of the bone, around the area of the shaft known as the diaphysis. This is due to the vulnerability of this part of the bone to direct trauma.

The humerus is a long bone in the arm or forelimb that runs from the shoulder to the elbow.

Anatomically, it connects the scapula and the lower arm (consisting of the radius and ulna), and consists of three sections. The upper extremity consists of a rounded head, a narrow neck, and two short processes (tubercles, sometimes called tuberosities.) Its body is cylindrical in its upper portion, and more prismatic below. The lower extremity consists of 2 epicondyles, 2 processes (trochlea & capitulum), and 3 fossae (radial fossa,coronoid fossa, and olecranon fossa). As well as its true anatomical neck, the constriction below the greater and lesser tubercles of the humerus is referred to as its surgical neck due to its tendency to commonly get fractured, thus often becoming the focus of surgeons.

the shoulder bone is called the shoulder blade or scapula

There are three bones that make up the shoulder unit: the clavicle (or collarbone), which is the connection between the arm and the trunk, the scapula (or shoulderblade), which connects to the clavicle at the acromion process and contains the glenoid, which together with the humerus, forms the glenohumeral joint, or what is better known as the "shoulder joint." These three are functionally inseparable, however.
