Acromion
Acromion
Definition
The acromion is the distal part of the spine of the scapula. It is a well-defined eminence, located close to the ventral angle in carnivores and ruminants and absent in pigs and horses. The acromion extends ventrally in carnivores as the hamate process and extends caudally in felidae as the suprahamate process. The rabbits possess the both processes of acromion (hamate and suprahamate).
