supraglenoid tubercle

The supraglenoid tubercle is a region of the scapula to which the long head of the biceps brachii muscle attaches. Every claim on this page comes from the Leumas anatomy graph and carries its source.

What the supraglenoid tubercle is

The supraglenoid tubercle is a region of the scapula to which the long head of the biceps brachii muscle attaches. The atlas records it as a bone at the organ scale in the human body.

Where the supraglenoid tubercle is

It sits within the skeletal system. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.

What the supraglenoid tubercle connects to

The atlas records 5 typed relationships for it, across 3 kinds of connection. part of coracoid process of scapula and skeletal element.

Supply and innervation

This dataset asserts no arterial supply, venous drainage or innervation for the supraglenoid tubercle. 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.

Also called

Also recorded as supraglenoid tuberosity and tuberculum supraglenoidale. Searching any of those names reaches this page.

Questions

Where is the supraglenoid tubercle?

It sits within the skeletal system. Not positioned individually. Drawn inside the structure this dataset says contains it — the containment is asserted, the exact spot within it is not.

What does the supraglenoid tubercle connect to?

Part of: coracoid process of scapula and skeletal element.

Is the supraglenoid tubercle the same in other species?

Leumas holds the same relationship vocabulary for every species it carries, so where another dataset records this structure you can put the two side by side on /compare.
