The Scapula forms the basis of the shoulder region, providing points of attachment of extrinsic and intrinsic muscles. It is held in place by a synsarcosis of muscles and does not form a conventional articulation with the trunk. The spine culminates in the '''acromion'''. The scapular cartilage is comprised of only a very narrow rim. | The Scapula forms the basis of the shoulder region, providing points of attachment of extrinsic and intrinsic muscles.
