(6) The role of the vault varies according to constitution (length and direction of the coracoid process) and acquired factors (iatrogenic or traumatic); the role of the floor depends on numerous elements: traumatic sequelae (malunion), eccentricity of the humeral pivot, lesion of the rotator interval, variant of insertion of the anterior capsule, floating glenoid labra, anomalies of insertion of pectoralis minor.

(9) Neonatal labra contained no elastin, whereas specimens from adults had rare elastin fibers.
(10) The labra acetabularis were observed to be ruptured at the posterior margin of the acetabulum.
(11) The magnetic resonance images of 48 shoulders that had subsequent surgical examination of their labra were reviewed with respect to labral appearance.
(12) Labra appearing as abnormal were further classified as torn, degenerative, or eroded.
(13) Correlation between morphology and age was weak, but abnormal labra were more common in younger patients.
(14) In the other examined cases, MRI always provided accurate information on the glenoid labra and the anterior capsular mechanism.
Lip
Definition:
(n.) One of the two fleshy folds which surround the orifice of the mouth in man and many other animals. In man the lips are organs of speech essential to certain articulations. Hence, by a figure they denote the mouth, or all the organs of speech, and sometimes speech itself.

(n.) The sharp cutting edge on the end of an auger.
(n.) One of the two opposite divisions of a labiate corolla.
(n.) The odd and peculiar petal in the Orchis family. See Orchidaceous.
(n.) One of the edges of the aperture of a univalve shell.
(v. t.) To touch with the lips; to put the lips to; hence, to kiss.
