title: [Calcification of glenoid labrum in the aged (author's transl)].
abstract: 200 radiographs of 100 elderly patients considering themselves to be fit are compared. Calcification of the glenoid labrum at the shoulder is due to age, without clinical importance, a radiologic finding. It was seen in 84%, symmetrical and independent of sex, bodyweight, occupation and left- or right handedness. It is, therefore, not considered to be a sign of arthrosis.
