Figure 1.
The falciform ligament is demonstrated in 2 different left shoulder specimens (►). (A) The pectoralis major tendon (PM) can be differentiated from the falciform ligament as a thick tendinous expansion spanning in the transverse plane to the humeral footprint (→). (B) The superior-oblique orientation of the falciform ligament is visualized and easily differentiated from the PM. The intimate relationship with the transverse humeral ligament (THL) and bicipital tunnel is appreciated.
