The glenohumeral joint, also known as the shoulder joint, is a complex structure that allows for a wide range of movement in the arm. This crucial joint connects the humerus (upper arm bone) to the scapula (shoulder blade), enabling actions such as flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. When we flex our arm, it showcases the power of our bicep muscle. An illustration of a flexed arm beautifully depicts this strength and highlights how important this muscle is in everyday activities. To truly understand the glenohumeral joint's anatomy, a coronal view of the left shoulder provides an insightful perspective. It reveals all its intricate components and helps us appreciate its complexity. However, like any other joint in our body, complications can arise. Septic arthritis is one such condition that affects this vital junction. An X-ray image shows us what septic arthritis looks like on C017 / 7582 film. Artwork showcasing shoulder joint movement further emphasizes just how dynamic this area is. The illustrations labeled C016 / 6519, C016 / 6520, C016 / 6518, C016 / 6514, C016 / 6517, and C016/7002 demonstrate various motions performed by this remarkable joint. Understanding the glenohumeral joint's movements not only aids in appreciating its functionality but also helps diagnose potential issues related to it. By studying these artworks closely and comparing them with real-life symptoms experienced by individuals suffering from shoulder pain or limited mobility, healthcare professionals can provide accurate diagnoses and effective treatment plans.
