Relating to or connecting the acromion (tip of the shoulder blade) and the coracoid process (a bony projection below it).
From Greek 'akron' (peak) + 'omos' (shoulder) combined with 'korakoeides' (crow-like), referring to two anatomical landmarks of the shoulder.
This word shows how anatomists name body parts by their appearance—the coracoid process is named because it looks like a crow's beak, and acromion means peak of the shoulder, so this term literally describes the 'peak-to-crow-beak' ligament connecting them!
