The coracoclavicular ligament serves to connect the clavicle with the coracoid process of the scapula.

It does not properly belong to the acromioclavicular (AC) joint articulation, but is usually described with it, since it forms a most efficient means of retaining the clavicle in contact with the acromion. It consists of two fasciculi, the trapezoid ligament in front, and the conoid ligament behind. There is very little movement at the AC joint {{citation needed|date=October 2017}}.

These ligaments are in relation, in front, with the subclavius and deltoideus; behind, with the trapezius. The coracoclavicular ligament is the strongest stabilizer of the AC joint. This ligament is very important in the transmission of weight of the upper limb to the axial skeleton.
