Proximal attachment of long head of biceps brachii to the bicipital tubercle of scapula and its functional significance

The efficiency of action of LHB is enhanced by its getting a firm attachment to the bicipital tubercle (BT). Thus in man the origin of the tendon of LHB has shifted from only the SGT to SGT plus labrum, and further has got an additional attachment to BT. This attachment to the BT seems to have been overlooked and demands its inclusion in all the future studies.
