Summary
Microangiographic investigation of the glenoid labrum of the dog shows a rich vascular supply to the labrum except for its free edge. The vessels originate predominantly from the shoulder joint capsule and periosteum of the scapula neck. Several anastomoses to the glenoid vessels were demonstrated. This rich vascularization provides a good environment for surgical repair of traumatically detached parts of the labrum.
