Resumo
Research of comparative data is important to the preservation and protection of animals as
well as for understanding their evolution. So, our objective was to describe the anatomy of the shoulder
joint of the Sapajus libidinosus monkey. Shoulders of eight monkeys, from the Anatomy Laboratory
of the Federal University of Uberlândia, granted by IBAMA were used. The preparation of anatomical
specimens followed standard procedures in Anatomy. The results showed that the shoulder joint of
S. libidinosus monkeys is fragile, and has a delicate and loose articular capsule, contributing little to
the glenohumeral stability. Their joint surfaces include the glenoid cavity and the humeral head, and
the glenoid labrum, when present, appears as a narrow fibrocartilaginous lamina. The coracohumeral
and transverse humeral ligaments are present, while the glenohumeral ligaments and coracoacromial
ligaments are absent. Strong muscular tendons pass through this joint and reinforce the joint capsule.
Since the movements that the shoulder joint of the S. libidinosus monkey allows are large, the main
element of stability of this joint is the adjacent muscles and their strong tendons.
