Coracoclavicular ligament

Definition

The coracoclavicular ligament connects the clavicle (collarbone) with the coracoid process of the scapula.

The coracoclavicular ligament fixes the clavicle to the scapula, thus stabilizing the acromioclavicular joint. It consists of two fiber bundles, referred to as the trapezoid ligament and the conoid ligament.
