Flexible shoulder model with ligaments

Anatomically speaking, the shoulder model shows part of the humerus, shoulder blade and clavicle - therefore also the shoulder joint and the acromioclavicular joint. Wha. rubber, the model shows the ligaments that belong to the 2 joints.

In terms of movement, the joint model is only slightly flexible and can only be used to a limited extent to demonstrate shoulder movements such as abduction and rotation.

Clinically speaking, the model is ideal for understanding disorders such as frozen shoulder, osteoarthritis (wear and tear) in the acromioclavicular joint and shoulder instability. It can of course also be used to understand fractures, dislocations and sprains.

The model may possibly also used to understand disorders such as impingement syndrome, rotator cuff injury and biceps tendinitis. If this is the purpose, we would instead recommend our flexible shoulder model with muscles.
