A scapula with an unreported canal.
During the practical lectures in our department, we encountered an abnormality on the left scapula of an adult human. In this case, an elongated canal was found just posterior and inferior to the coracoid process and the scapular notch was not observed on this bone. Knowing about the anatomic variations of this region may have an importance for the surgeons.
