Opening the Humerus

Determine entry point
The ideal entry point is situated at the apex of the humeral
head, in line with the medullary canal in both AP and lateral
views. This point is located posterolateral to the biceps tendon
and medial to the sulcus between the greater tuberosity and
the humeral head.
Note:
If the acromion inhibits access to the ideal entry point,
extend the shoulder to move the apex of the humeral head
in front of the acromion.
