The scapula, one of the largest flat bones of the skeletal system, is located behind the chest wall. Scapula has unique morphometric features and anatomical variations. Glenoid structure and acromion type are the structures that show variations. In this study, the morphometric properties of the scapula and the variability of the anatomical variations were evaluated, and the results were compared with the studies in the literature. 40 scapulae, 16 right and 24 left, which are available at the Anatomy Department at Pamukkale University Faculty of Medicine, were measured with an electrocronic digital caliper with a millimeter precision. In addition, the acromion and glenoid structures of all scapulae were evaluated and typed. The mean height of the 40 scapulae was 14.7 mm and the mean width was 10.5 mm. The average length of spina scapulae was 13.3 mm. The mean length and width of the acromion were 4.7 mm and 2.3 mm, respectively. Acromion typing showed 10 straight, 15 concave and 15 notched acromia. When acromion was separated according to its shape, 14 were cobra shaped, 13 were intermediate and 13 were square shaped. 18 glenoid were comma-shaped, 13 were oval and 9 were pear-shaped. When we compared the results obtained in this study, which we tried to reveal the length parameters and types of the forty scapulae in the anatomy laboratory, biological diversities were observed. This type of anthropometric studies needs to be performed in larger series, multicentrally and comparatively.
