Abstract :Aim: The aim of this study is to determine the average of the morphometric parameters of the scapula to accurate and successful analyzes in the clinic. Material and Methods: A total of 24 dry bone scapula were included in the study. Parameters determined on the scapula; superio-inferior glenoid diameter (SIGD), anterio-posterior glenoid diameter 1 (APG1), anterio-posterior glenoid diameter 2 (APG2), anterio-posterior glenoid diameter 3 (APG3), scapula width (SW), scapula length (SL), basis-spina distance (BS), spina scapula width (SSW), acromiocoracoid width (AW), scapula margo lateralis length (SML), scapula margo medialis length 1 (SML 1), scapula margo medialis length 2 (SML 2), cavitas glenoidalis antero-posterior width (CGAPW), cavitas glenoidalis superio-inferior width (CGSIW), incisura scapula width (ISW), incisura scapula depth (ISD), the maximum length of proccessus coracoideus (MLPC), maximum proccessus coracoideus thickness (MPCK), the shortest distance between the lateral edge of the proccessus coracoideus tip and the anterior upper edge of the cavitas glenoidalis (PCL-CGK). Results: Among the determined parameters, SSW, MSW, ISW, ISD, MPCU, MPCK, PCL-CGK were found to be in parallel with the analyzed literatures. Conclusion: It is thought that the results of the analysis of the parameters determined in the study will add clinical depth to many surgical approaches such as glenohumeral arthrodesis, internal fixation, fracture stabilization, and rotator cuff tendinitis, in more accurate analysis of shoulder anomalies and fractures.Keywords : Scapula, morphometry, cavitas glenoidalis
