Oroclavicular fascia

The fascia coracoid is one of two fascia that connects the clavicle to the sternum. It is formed as a result of the fusion of three bundles: tendon, ligament and processes of the clavicular bone. The coracoid fascia is part of the system of fascial joints in the upper extremity that surrounds the condyles of the shoulder joint and the acromial head of the humerus. The name "coracoid" generally refers to the upper portions of the clavicle. This type of tendon is considered the most common. The fascia of the subclavian bone in men has branches that form the so-called “shoe hooks”. This tissue pattern can be extremely distinct when injury or swelling occurs if the bone is forced into an abnormal position. In this case, the fibers of the bone lining can be torn, and the fascia can move freely, leading to a high probability of rupture. The collarbones help bear body weight and control the movement of the shoulder joints. They are also important for simulating the shape of the arm muscle and are indispensable for holding objects.
