Author(s): Kavita Rohlan, Punam, Vikas Choudhary, Sanwar Mal and Kapil Kumar Godara
Abstract:
The gross morphometrical examination was conducted on the scapula of six adult Blue bulls. The shape of scapula was flat and triangular. Scapula contains two surfaces, three angles and three borders. In this study, no significant difference in between scapulae of right and left side from same animal. The lateral surface was separated by the scapular spine into two parts i.e. supra-spinous fossa which is small and elongated and infra-spinous fossa which is much larger and triangular. The outline of spine was sharp and wavy. The sub-scapular fossa was marked deep, acromian process was sharp and tuber spine was unable to distinguish. The tuber-scapulae of scapula was small and the coracoids process was not well evolved. There was shallow, oval shaped glenoid cavity. Above glenoid cavity a small glenoid notch was present.
