“…In the study conducted by Moumita Chatterjee et al, the maximum vertical diameter of head was 35.56±3.26 on right side and 35.19±3.38 on left side. 15 This is quite higher as compared to our study. In the study conducted by Lokanadham et al the vertical diameter of head was 32.66± .31 in males and 29.6± .41 in females.…”

The humerus is largest bone of the upper limb and also defines the human brachium. The shoulder joint is ball and socket joint formed by articulation of hemispherical head of humerus and shallow glenoid cavity of scapula. The sizes of Humeri & Glenoid can impact decision making during surgery for shoulder replacement and shoulder instability. Study of humerus is helpful for providing data and correlation factors which has enormous importance while making prosthesis for replacement surgery.: A retrospective study was conducted on 61 cadaveric humeri - 31 from left side and 30 from right side. Length, AP diameter, MLD and head size was calculated using vernier calliper, scale, no elastic thread and osteometer. The combined length of humerus was 309.84±17.91 mm. Left and right sided length was 308.42±17.859 mm and 311.30±17.91 mm respectively. AP diameter on left and right side was 39.10±2.791mm and 39.54±2.544 mm respectively. MLD combined was 42.959±3.264 mm and head height was 30.92±2.53 respectively. The morpho-metric dimensions of right side of humerus was more than that of left side.Proper measurements are required when surgical procedures are to be done. More studies should be conducted measuring head height.

“…This is quite comparable to our study. 15 In the study conducted by Sinchal Dutta et al, it was 38.946+ 3.383 on right side and 38.208+ 3.684mm and left side respectively. 16 While in study conducted by Ayadin et al, the transverse diameter on right and left side was 38.29±3.04mm and 38.66±3.92mm respectively.…”

“…Shoulder instability has been observed in the 2% population of the world. This is the leading musculoskeletal disease of today's community 7 . It is necessary to deeply study the glenoid fossa variations for developing complete understanding of glenohumeral osteoarthritis, shoulder dislocation and rotator cuff disease.…”

Background: Different pathological conditions are associated with the anatomical variations in glenoid cavity. For getting insights into these variations the anthropometric parameters knowledge is highly required. Objective: The purpose of the study was the determination of the anthropometric relationship present between the left and right side of the glenoid cavity of the scapula and the application of the obtained knowledge in the forensic medicine. Place and Duration: In the department of anatomy, Multan Medical and Dental College and Bacha Khan Medical Complex Swabi for six months duration, from January 2021 to June 2021. Material and Methods: The data of 190 patients included in the study, was collected from the anatomy department of our institute. The sample was withdrawn from the non-deformed and well macerated scapulae bone of the 190 patients. The calibrated sliding digital caliper was used to measure the anthropometric parameters of glenoid cavity. The glenoid height, width and index were calculated by SPSS software. Results: The 34.8±4.0 (R=38 ± 4.98 and L=27.9-46.78) and 24.9 ±3.90 (R=27.2 ± 3.43 and L=20.1- 36) was the calculated mean standard deviation of Maximum glenoid height (MGH) and Maximum glenoid width (MGW) respectively. The statistically significant and greater values of MGH and MGW on the right side were obtained by using ANOVA and t-test. While calculated values of glenoid Index (GI) was smaller on the right side as compared to the left. Conclusion: The kinanthropological applications of the scapula are indicated by the study that which side can be more commonly used. This study provides with in-depth knowledge of biological profiling and develops better understanding required during reconstruction of the damaged skeleton. Keywords: Glenoid cavity, Maximum glenoid height (MGH), Maximum glenoid width (MGW).
