Anatomy regarding the posterior part of coracohumeral ligament comprehensively including loose connective tissues

This study aimed to anatomically investigate the posterior extension of the coracohumeral ligament, including loose connective tissues. The current study used nine embalmed shoulders harvested from seven embalmed cadavers under the IRB agreement. We macroscopically observed four shoulders to analyze the connective tissues from the posterior part of the coracoid process to the superficial and deep layers of the supraspinatus tendon.
