the joints which allow abduction of the shoulder are the glenohumeral joint which is formed between the humerus and the glenoid fossa, the sternoclavicular joint which is formed between the upper portion of the sternum and the clavicle and also the acromioclavicular joint which is formed between the acromion process and the clavicle all of these joints work together with the muscles which produce shoulder abduction to create this movement.
