An understanding of variations in normal anatomy of the glenoid is essential while evaluating pathological conditions like osseous bankart lesions and osteochondral defects.\par In the present study done on 224 dry scapulae, three glenoid diameters were measured.

Lateral angle of the scapula is a shallow, pyriform articular surface-the Glenoid cavity, also known as Glenoid fossa of the scapula. Glenoid cavity is directed laterally and forward and articulates with the head of the humerus and form Gleno-humeral joint. The vertical diameter of the Glenoid cavity is the longest and it is broader below than above. The surface is covered with hyaline cartilage in the fresh state and its slightly raised margins give attachment to a fibrocartilaginous structure-the glenoid labrum which deepens the cavity (Richard LM, Newell 2005 1 ).\par Shoulder joint between shallow glenoid fossa and hemispherical head of humerus is a ball and socket type of synovial joint. It has maximum movement but less stability. The factors contributing to stability the shoulder joint are the deepening of the glenoid cavity by the glenoid labrum; the suprahumeral support provided by the coracoacromial arch, the capsule is strengthened by the fusion of tendons of rotator cuff muscles and glenohumeral and coracohumeral ligaments.\par Shoulder joint is frequently dislocated inferiorly due to having less support in that region of the joint. During trauma,dislocation with fracture of glenoid are also common. During treatment repair of the labrum and reinforcing the capsule by an overlapping repair and rearrangement of anterior muscle, total shoulder replacement is also being used as treatment {\ref (Chummy S. Sinnatomby 20062)}.\par Total shoulder arthroplasty has proven to provide predictable improvement in pain and function in patients with a degenerative shoulder joint and an intact rotator cuff.\par Various shapes of the glenoid cavity have been described based on the presence of a notch on anterior glenoid rim. It has been found that if the notch is distinct then the glenoid labrum is not fixed to the bony margin of the notch but bridges the notch itself. This could make the shoulder joint less resistant to dislocating forces {\ref (Prescher A. and Klmpen T. 19973)} Because of unusual and complex morphology features of the scapula, and the lack of complete quantitative anatomic studies, the current study was undertaken to describe the glenoid cavity quantitatively with its dimensions and shape. \section[{II.}]{II.} \section[{Materials}]{Materials}\par This study was done on 224 dry, unpaired adult human scapulae of unknown sex obtained from department of Anatomy Srinivas Institute of medical Sciences, Mangalore. Scapula having clear and intact glenoid cavity were selected for the study. All the measurements were taken in millimeters using sliding calipers. \section[{III.}]{III.} \section[{Methods}]{Methods}\par The following parameters were studied in the glenoid cavity of the dry scapula 1. Superior-Inferior glenoid diameter (SI): Represents the maximum distance from the inferior point on the glenoid margin to the most prominent point of the supraglenoid tubercle. 2. Anterior-Posterior glenoid diameter (AP-1): Represents the maximum breadth of the articular margin 3. Anterior-Posterior glenoid diameter (AP-2): Reprethe anterior-posterior diameter (Breadth) of the top half of the glenoid cavity at the mid-point between the superior rim and the mid-equator. 4. Shape of the glenoid cavity: A piece of white sheet was placed on the glenoid cavity and held firmly in position to trace the shape of the glenoid cavity. The side of the point of a lead pencil was rubbed along the rim of the glenoid cavity to get a tracing of the shape of the glenoid cavity on the paper.\par IV. \section[{Stastical Evaluation}]{Stastical Evaluation}\par The mean and standard error of the glenoid cavity in various dimensions were calculated. The morphometric values of both sides were analyzed using an unpaired t-test.\par V. \section[{Observation and Results}]{Observation and Results}\par In 224 dry scapulae, 104 belonging to the right side and 120 to the left side. Abbreviations used in the following tables are In the present study, the superior -inferior diameters of the glenoid cavity on the right side varied from 25 to 42 mm, with an average of 33.68±4.32mm. on left side the superior -inferior diameter from 25 to 42, with a mean of 32.09±4.11mm.\par Statistically Highly significant value was found while comparing the SI diameters of the right glenoid with that of the left glenoid cavity (P<0.001 ) In this study, the AP 1-glenoid diameter of the right and left sides varies from 17 to 27mm and 17 to 28mm respectively. The average maximum breadth of the right glenoid was 23.29±2.34mm and the maximum breadth of the left glenoid was 24.90±2,95mm.\par Statistically Highly significant value was found while comparing the AP 1 diameter of the right glenoid with that of the left glenoid (P<0.001). The range for the AP2 diameter of the glenoid cavity was 12 to 20mm and the mean for the same was 15.74±1.75mm. the AP2 diameter for the left glenoid varied from 12 to 21mm, while the mean for the left glenoid was 16.81±1.74mm. \section[{Volume XIV Issue II Version I}]{Volume XIV Issue II Version I} \section[{Year ( )}]{Year ( )} \section[{2014}]{2014} \section[{H}]{H}\par While comparing the AP2 diameter of the right and left glenoid cavities, statistically important difference was found (P<0.001).\par While examining the various shapes of the glenoid cavity in the present study. It was found that the could mainly be of 3 types. It was classified as inverted comma shaped if the anterior glenoid notch was distinct, as pear shaped if the anterior glenoid notch was indistinct and as oval shaped if the anterior glenoid notch was absent. On the right side out of the total 104 glenoid cavities examined 36 were found to have inverted comma shape. And the incidence of this shape was calculated to be 34.62\%. the number of glenoids having pear shape on the right side was 49 and the incidence was found to be 47.12\%.oval glenoid cavities were 19 in number on the right side and the incidence was 18.27\%. On the left side, glenoids with the inverted comma shape were 39 in number out of the total 120 scapulae examined. The incidence of inverted comma shaped glenoid was 32.5\%. 54 glenoids on the left side were found to have the pear shape and incidence of pear shaped glenoid was 45\%. The oval glenoid cavities were 27 in number and the incidence of oval glenoid was 22.5\%. \section[{VI.}]{VI.} \section[{Discussion}]{Discussion}\par In the present study an effort has been made to find the average diameters of the glenoid cavity of the scapula and the incidence of various shapes of the glenoid cavity in the south Indian population. Several authors have attempted to determine the glenoid diameters in the course of their research. This has been performed in a variety of ways, including direct measurement of dry scapulae, direct measurement of fresh or embalmed cadavers, radiographic measureement of scapulae harvested from cadavers and radiographic measurement in living patients. These studies have been performed on different populations. In evaluating the data presented in this study, a comparison to work by others reveals several differences as well as similarities \section[{Summary and Conclusion}]{Summary and Conclusion}\par Knowledge of the shape and dimensions of the glenoid are important in the design and fitting of glenoid components for total shoulder arthroplasty. An understanding of variations in normal anatomy of the glenoid is essential while evaluating pathological conditions like osseous bankart lesions and osteochondral defects.\par In the present study done on 224 dry scapulae, three glenoid diameters were measured. The superiorinferior, anterior-posterior diameter of the lower half of the glenoid and the anterior-posterior diameter of the upper half of the glenoid. The average superior-inferior diameter on right and the left side were 33.68±4.32mm and 32.09±4.11mm respectively. The average anteriorposterior diameter of the lower half of the right glenoid was 23.29±2.34mm and that of the left glenoid was 24.90±2,95mm. The mean diameter of the upper half of the right glenoid was 15.74±1.75mm and that of the left glenoid was 16.81±1.74mm.\par The left glenoid cavity was slightly shorter in length, but broader especially in the upper part as compared to the right glenoid cavity.\par The current study also recorded a higher percentage of glenoid cavities having the glenoid notch in the anterior margin of the glenoid as compared to earlier studies. While evaluating defects and lesions of the glenoid, this fact could be useful.\par By observing the tables in the discussion it can be implied that the values observed in the present study, through coinciding with that of some of the studies are mostly less than that recorded by many of the observers. This implies that the smaller dimensions of the glenoid cavities in the south Indian population may have to be taken into consideration while designing and fitting glenoid components while performing total shoulder arthroplasty in this population, Volume XIV Issue II Version I Year ( ) 2014\begin{figure}[htbp] \noindent\textbf{2} \par \begin{longtable}{P{0.85\textwidth}} 1.
