clavicle bone in dogs

A paired dermal or endochondral bone that is part of the pectoral girdle. The clavicle may be in contact with the interclavicle or coracoid and forms an attachment site for pectoral musculature. [PHENOSCAPE:ad]. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the clavicle bone is

A paired dermal or endochondral bone that is part of the pectoral girdle. The clavicle may be in contact with the interclavicle or coracoid and forms an attachment site for pectoral musculature. [PHENOSCAPE:ad]. The atlas records it as a bone at the organ scale in the dog.

Where the clavicle bone is

It sits within the skeletal system. Only the system is known. The position shown carries almost no spatial information.

What the clavicle bone connects to

The atlas records 15 typed relationships for it, across 5 kinds of connection. part of anatomical entity and pectoral girdle skeleton.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the clavicle bone. Only a minority of structures carry those edges here, so an empty answer means nothing has been recorded — not that there is nothing to record.
