MUSCLES OF THE SHOULDER

The =deltoid= is undivided; it arises from the aponeurosis covering the

infraspinatus, and it ends largely on the deltoid ridge, but partly on

the fascia of the arm.

The =supraspinatus= is large; it ends chiefly on the external tuberosity

of the humerus.

The =infraspinatus= is inserted into a depression below the posterior

division of the external tuberosity.

The =teres minor= is well developed; it ends on a tubercle between the

external and deltoid tuberosities of the humerus.

The =subscapularis= and =teres major= have no remarkable features.

The =coraco-brachialis= is short and undivided.

The =capsularis= is very small and frequently absent.
