The shoulder joint, or glenohumeral joint, is a ball-and-socket joint that allows for a wide range of motion in the upper limb, including flexion, extension, abduction, adduction, and rotation. It is formed by the articulation of the humeral head with the glenoid fossa of the scapula. The joint is surrounded by a lax capsule lined with synovial membrane and contains several bursae that reduce friction. Stability is provided by ligaments like the glenohumeral and coracohumeral ligaments. The rotator cuff muscles act together to produce shoulder movement. Blood supply comes from the circumflex humeral, circumflex sc
