Suprascapular notch variations: a 3DCT study [PDF]
Although cadaveric studies have revealed suprascapular notch shape variations, few have investigated the association between suprascapular notch variation and age or gender. The purpose of this study was to investigate suprascapular notch shape variations by use of three-dimensional computed tomography (3DCT) and to determine if there was any ...

Arthroscopic suprascapular nerve decompression at the suprascapular notch
AbstractRelease of a transverse scapular ligament (TSL) is indicated for the entrapment of the suprascapular nerve (SSN). Previous arthroscopic techniques use step‐wise reference landmarks leading to the notch to identify a TSL, and the key landmarks are the conoid ligament of the coracoclavicular ligament and the coracoid.

Superior Transverse Scapular Ligament Ossification and its Clinical Importance: An Osteological Study [PDF]
Introduction: Superior border of scapula is thin and presents the suprascapular notch. The superior transverse ligament bridges across the notch, which is attached laterally to the root of the coracoid process and medially to the limit of the notch ...

Diameter of Suprascapular Nerve in the Suprascapular Notch
The ultrasound examination of a suprascapular nerve in the suprascapular notch of a 30-year-old male volunteer revealed an approximate diameter of the nerve to be from 2.1 to 2.9 mm. Anatomic dissection confirmed the ultrasound findings.

Systematic review on morphometric study of suprascapular notch
Suprascapular notch roofed by STSL is located in the lateral part of the superior border of scapula and medial to the base of the coracoids process. The suprascapular nerve (SN) is entrapped due to anatomical variation of the notch.

A Study on the Morphology of the Suprascapular Notch and Its Distance from the Glenoid Cavity [PDF]
Introduction: A suprascapular nerve entrapment can occur at the suprascapular notch or at the spinoglenoid notch. So, the size and shape of the suprascapular notch are associated with suprascapular entrapment neuropathy as well as with an injury to ...

Morphometric Study of Suprascapular Notch in Indian Dry Scapulae with Specific Reference to the Incidence of Completely Ossified Superior Transverse Scapular Ligament [PDF]
Background: The suprascapular notch, a depression on the lateral part of the superior border of the scapula, medial to the coracoid process, is bridged by the superior transverse scapular ligament, which is sometimes ossified and the foramen which is

The Ossified Bifid Superior Transverse Scapular Ligament Causing a Double Suprascapular Foramen: A Case Report [PDF]
Ossified bifid superior transverse scapular ligament causing a double suprascapular foramen is a very rare finding. This ossified ligament reduces the suprascapular space by half of its original size.

Suprascapular Nerve Release: Technique Based on Anatomic Landmarks
Dysfunction of the suprascapular nerve (SSN) is closely related to rotator cuff pathology; nerve dysfunction can lead to cuff disease and vice versa. Owing to repetitive microtrauma during overhead sports or massive cuff tears with significant tendon ...
