What is the convex & concave aspects of the glenohumeral (GH) joint?

• convex = humeral head

• concave = glenoid fossa of the scapula

What is the convex & concave aspects of the sternoclavicular (SC) joint?

Sternum & clavicle can be either convex or concave depending on the plane of motion of a movement

• Elevation/Depression

  • convex = clavicle

  • concave = sternum

• Protraction/Retraction

  • convex = sternum

  • concave = clavicle

What are the convex & concave aspects of the acromioclavicular (AC) joint?

• convex = lateral aspect of the clavicle

• concave = acromion

What are the convex & concave aspects of the humeral radial joint?

• convex = capitulum of the humerus

• concave = fovea of the radial head

What are the convex & concave aspects of the humeral ulnar joint?

• convex = trochlea of the humerus (on medial aspect of distal humerus)

• concave = trochlear notch of the ulna
