Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment Due to a Stenotic Foramen: A Variant of the Suprascapular Notch [PDF]
Sports Health, 2013 Suprascapular nerve (SSN) entrapment is an uncommon cause of posterior shoulder pain. Entrapment can be relieved arthroscopically in some cases.

Variation in morphology of suprascapular notch as a factor of suprascapular nerve entrapment [PDF]
International Orthopaedics, 2013 The shape and size of the suprascapular notch (SSN) is one of the most important risk factors in suprascapular nerve entrapment. The aim of the study was to perform a morphological study of SSN variations.A total of 616 computer tomography scans of scapulae were retrospectively analysed in 308 patients.

Suprascapular nerve entrapment caused by a large hematoma of the scapula: a case report [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2023 Background Suprascapular nerve entrapment is a rare disorder that is frequently misdiagnosed as another disease. The suprascapular nerve is commonly entrapped at the following two sites: the suprascapular and spinoglenoid notches. Nerve entrapment at the

Treatment of suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome. [PDF]
Orthop Rev (Pavia), 2021 Suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome (SNES) is an often-overlooked etiology of shoulder pain and weakness. Treatment varies depending on the location and etiology of entrapment, which can be described as compressive or traction lesions. In some cases, treating the primary cause of impingement (ie.

Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment Caused by Protrusion of an Intraosseous Ganglion of the Glenoid into the Spinoglenoid Notch: A Rare Cause of Posterior Shoulder Pain [PDF]
Case Reports in Orthopedics, 2017 We describe a case of suprascapular nerve entrapment caused by protrusion of an intraosseous ganglion of the glenoid into the spinoglenoid notch. A 47-year-old man with left shoulder pain developed an intraosseous cyst in the left glenoid, which came ...

Suprascapular nerve entrapment. A meta-analysis [PDF]
International Orthopaedics, 2002 We performed a review of the literature between 1959 and 2001. We found 88 cases of suprascapular nerve entrapment, which fulfilled our inclusion criteria. Suprascapular nerve entrapment is rare and mainly occurs in patients under 40 years of age. Males are more likely to suffer from a ganglion compressing the nerve than females.

Electromyography does not show adequate effectiveness in diagnosis of suprascapular nerve lesions caused by rotator cuff tear in rat model [PDF]
BMC Musculoskeletal DisordersBackground Suprascapular nerve lesions caused by rotator cuff tears have been widely reported. However, the accuracy of electromyography as a definitive diagnostic method for nerve lesions is controversial.
