Aus Dornheim Anatomy
As a result of the evolutionary uprighting of the human being to an upright position, the shoulder blades have shifted dorsally to the almost frontal rear surface of the thorax. In a cranial view, the scapula and the frontal plane form an angle of 30°. Between the clavicle and the scapula is a larger angle of about 60°. This causes the shoulder joints to tilt forward slightly.
