Abstract

To study the morphometry of dry adult humeri. Out of total collection of humeri from the department, 150 undamaged humeri were selected for study. The humeri were of undetermined gender and age. Each humerus was assigned a serial number. The humeri were numbered from 1‐150. The maximum length, vertical and transverse diameter of humerus distance between humeral head, greater tubercle and lesser tubercle and circumference of shaft of humerus at surgical neck, mid shaft and distal end were measured. The maximum length of humerus on right side ranged from 270.00‐372.00 mm with a mean of 314.64±20.31 mm.The maximum length of humerus on left side ranged from 258.00 mm to 362.00 mm with a mean of 313.47±16.85 mm.The maximum vertical diameter (supero inferior) of head of humerus on right side ranged from 33.03‐51.12 mm with a mean of 42.19±3.98 mm. The maximum vertical diameter (supero inferior) of head of humerus on left side ranged from 33.37‐48.32 mm with a mean of 41.88±3.11 mm.The maximum transverse diameter (antero posterior) of head of humerus on right side ranged from 28.54‐44.97 mm with a mean of 38.37±3.39 mm. The maximum transverse diameter (antero posterior) of head of humerus on left side ranged from 30.40‐44.58 mm with a mean of 38.18±2.95 mm. The distance between humeral head and greater tubercle on right side ranged from 6.00‐16.00 mm with the mean of 9.54±1.49 mm.The distance between humeral head and greater tubercle on left side ranged from 8.00‐15.00 mm with the mean of 10.14±1.45 mm. The present study provides a comprehensive data about the morphometry of human humeri which will help in designing implants and instrumentations and also provides data regarding quantitative anatomy of humerus.
