The authors studied the origin, course and insertion as well as some peculiarities of RC muscles on 25 cadaverous fixed limbs. They discovered that RC muscles exchange muscle bundles and are secured by synovial sheaths. They described the articular muscles in all of the observed muscles, including the deltoid muscle, which significantly stretch the capsule of the glenohumeral joint. They expressed the opinion that the subscapular bursa enhances motions in the shoulder joint. Due to the possibilities of arthroscopic diagnostic and treatment methods, they are convinced that more attention must directed to this issue from both the morphological and functional perspective.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
