Arthroscopic Suprascapular Nerve Decompression: A Technique Video [PDF]

Video Journal of Sports Medicine
Background: Suprascapular neuropathy is an uncommon but treatable cause of shoulder pain and dysfunction. The tortuous course of the suprascapular nerve puts it at risk for entrapment, particularly at the suprascapular and spinoglenoid notches.

Anatomical relations between anterior coracoscapular ligament and suprascapular neurovascular structures and a proposal for classification

Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2020
Objective: Although suprascapular nerve entrapment is rare, the most common site of compression is the suprascapular notch. The anterior coracoscapular ligament (ACSL), which lies inferior to the superior transverse scapular ligament (STSL), may also be ...

Basis of Shoulder Nerve Entrapment Syndrome: An Ultrasonographic Study Exploring Factors Influencing Cross-Sectional Area of the Suprascapular Nerve [PDF]

Frontiers in Neurology, 2018
As changes in nerves' shape and size are common ultrasonographic findings of entrapment neuropathy, measurement of the nerve cross-sectional area (CSA) becomes the mostly used indicator to differentiate normality from pathology.

Complete Absence of Suprascapular Notch: A Case Report [PDF]

Journal of Krishna Institute of Medical Sciences University, 2015
Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment (SSNE) is an acquired neuropathy secondary to compression of suprascapular nerve in the Suprascapular Notch (SSN). Complete ossification of superior transverse scapular ligament may be a cause for suprascapular nerve ...

Arthroscopic Suprascapular Nerve Decompression: Transarticular and Subacromial Approach

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2012
Entrapment of the suprascapular nerve (SSN) is an increasingly recognized entity that can occur due to traction or compression-related etiology. Traction injuries of the SSN are unlikely to respond to surgical management and frequently improve with rest ...

A COMPREHENSIVE MORPHOLOGICAL AND MORPHOMETRIC STUDY OF THE SPINOGLENOID NOTCH AND LIGAMENT/ MEMBRANE: POSSIBLE CLINICAL RELEVANCE OF SUPRASCAPULAR NERVE ENTRAPMENT

İstanbul Tıp Fakültesi Dergisi
Objective: This study aimed to determine the anatomical fea tures and clinical significance of the spinoglenoid notch and spinoglenoid ligament-membrane as well as the branches of the suprascapular nerve to the infraspinatus muscle as these struc tures ...

Open Suprascapular Nerve Decompression at the Spinoglenoid Notch

Arthroscopy Techniques
Suprascapular nerve (SSN) entrapment is a rare but significant cause of posterior shoulder pain and weakness. Compression of the nerve at the level of the spinoglenoid notch leads to weakness and atrophy of the infraspinatus.

Scapular morphometrics inform anatomic landmark distances for arthroscopic suprascapular nerve decompression: a cadaveric study [PDF]

JSES International
Background: Arthroscopic suprascapular nerve (SSN) decompression is an increasingly adopted treatment for SSN entrapment. It involves lateral-to-medial dissection to reach the suprascapular notch, placing adjacent neurovasculature at risk.

Suprascapular nerve entrapment at the spinoglenoid notch secondary to a ganglion cyst

Acta Orthopaedica et Traumatologica Turcica, 2021
Suprascapular neuropathy may occur as a result of traction, direct trauma, repetitive microtraumas, and extrinsic compression. A thirty-one-year-old man presented with non-traumatic complaints of right shoulder pain and stiffness.

Protective and Predisposing Morphological Factors in Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment Syndrome: A Fundamental Review Based on Recent Observations. [PDF]

Biomed Res Int, 2017
Suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome (SNES) is a neuropathy caused by compression of the nerve along its course. The most common compression sites include the suprascapular notch and the spinoglenoid notch.
