Clinically Relevant Anatomy
[edit | edit source]
Subacromial Impingement is defined as the compression of the subacromial structures (rotator cuff tendons, long head of the biceps, glenohumeral joint capsule, and subacromial bursa) during elevation of the arm. These structures are compressed against the coracoacromial arch[1], creating sensations of pain.
