The middle glenohumeral ligament: normal anatomy, variants and pathology.

The middle glenohumeral ligament frequently presents variations of the normal anatomy and it is often injured in patients suffering trauma to the glenohumeral joint. The purpose of this pictorial assay is to illustrate the normal anatomy, biomechanics, normal variants and pathology of the middle glenohumeral ligament, as shown on MRI and MR arthrography of the shoulder.
