Conoid tubercle

Bone: Conoid tubercle
Left clavicle. Inferior surface. (Ligament for conoid ligament labeled at bottom center.)
Latin	tuberculum conoideum
Gray's	subject #49 200
Origins	conoid ligament

At the posterior inferior side of the clavicle, near the point where the prismatic joins with the flattened portion, is a rough eminence, the conoid tubercle (or coracoid tuberosity); this, in the natural position of the bone, surmounts the coracoid process of the scapula, and gives attachment to the conoid ligament.
