Clavicle and Scapula Anatomy

The video tutorial covers the anatomy of the pectoral girdle, focusing on the scapula and clavicle. It describes the scapula's features, such as the acromion and coracoid process, and their muscle attachments. A clinical scenario is presented to apply this knowledge, involving a scapula fracture. The tutorial concludes with an overview of the clavicle's structure and its role in supporting the shoulder.

What bones make up the pectoral girdle?

• Clavicle and sternum
