To clarify the attachment types of the long head of the biceps tendon to the glenoid labrum and their relationships with the glenoid attachment of the glenohumeral ligaments. Types of Study: Anatomic study in cadavers. Methods: Using 101 cadaver shoulders, the glenoid attachment types of the biceps tendon and the location of the glenoid origin of the glenohumeral ligaments were assessed macroscopically and then histologically on the sagittal section. Results: The glenoid attachment types of the biceps tendon were defined as entirely-posterior in 28 shoulders (27.7%), posterior-dominant in 56 shoulders (55.4%), equal in 17 shoulders (16.8%), and entirely anterior in none (0%). In all shoulders, the superior and middle glenohumeral ligaments were attached between 12 and 1 o'clock (average, 12:36 o'clock), whereas the inferior glenohumeral ligament (IGHL) showed greater variation. In the posterior-dominant and equal types, the IGHL was attached relatively high (average 2:49 o'clock for the posterior-dominant type and 1:49 o'clock for the equal type). In the entirely posterior type, the IGHL was attached low, between 4 and 5 o'clock (average, 4:32 o'clock). There was a significant difference between them (P
