| The coracohumeral ligament limits ER at 0 degrees of humerus-to-trunk abduction, (85) whereas the anterior band of the inferior glenohumeral ligament limits ER at 90 degrees of humerus-to-trunk abduction. 18, 19, 23, 24, 43, 45-47) Anterior humeral head translation was primarily restricted by the coracohumeral and anterior superior glenohumeral ligaments in the neutral position and by the anterior middle and inferior glenohumeral ligaments in the abducted position. This anterosuperior migration of the humeral head can cause impingement on the coracohumeral ligament or the anterolateral surface of the acromion, and thus cause a painful arc. |
