Coracoid process of the scapula is an essential component of shoulder biomechanics, providing musculotendinous and ligamentous attachments around the scapula. Anatomically, it is one of the most important landmarks for identification of vital structures around the shoulder, and in approaching main blood vessels of the upper limb for research and clinical studies. Open shoulder surgery has become increasingly popular nowadays due to increase the incidence of shoulder injury. Knowledge on how to dissect and approach the coracoid process not only has a great clinical implication but also of significant importance to surgeons and researchers. This short study describes an easily accessible way to dissect the coracoid process of the scapula, without violating the pectoral region, of which can be of help or a guide for students, anatomists and researchers in dissecting the human coracoid process, while preserving other structures for future studies.
