Topographical anatomy of the suprascapular nerve and vessels at the suprascapular notch
Clinical Anatomy, 2011AbstractSuprascapular nerve entrapment caused by the superior transverse scapular ligament (STSL) causes pain, and limitation of motion in the shoulder. To relieve these symptoms, suprascapular nerve decompression is performed through the resection of STSL.

Journal of Ultrasound in Medicine, 2023
Ultrasound (US)‐guided suprascapular nerve block (SSNB) is a widely used procedure and while describing the US‐guided SSNB in the suprascapular notch, the suprascapular fossa is often visualized and injection is performed in that location. Although it can be done in both location, to inject the right area, the terminology should be settled and the ...

Suprascapular nerve compression at the spinoglenoid notch
Muscle & Nerve, 1990AbstractA 52‐year‐old man developed isolated atrophy of the infraspinatus muscle. The suprascapular nerve was compressed at the spinoglenoid notch by a hypertrophied inferior transverse scapular ligament.

Morphometry and variations of the human suprascapular notch
Morphologie, 2015The present study proposes a simple method to study variations in shape and dimensions of suprascapular notch, to classify different types and subtypes of notch and to measure the thickness of superior transverse scapular bar (ossified superior transverse ligament of scapula).Seven hundred and twenty-eight dried scapulae were observed, examined and ...

Entrapment of the suprascapular nerve at the spinoglenoid notch
Annals of Neurology, 1982AbstractA 58‐Year‐old fencing instructor developed selective denervation of the infraspinatus muscle. It was found to be caused by entrapment of the suprascapular nerve at the spinoglenoid notch due to a hypertrophied inferior transverse scapular ligament.

“Pseudo-suprascapular notch”: is it a sonographic trap in suprascapular nerve block?
Regional Anesthesia & Pain Medicine, 2019Background and objectivesThe aim of the study was to describe the radiological anatomy of the pseudo-suprascapular notch—a structure localized at the floor of the supraspinatus fossa, just below the true suprascapular notch. In sonographic examination, it may imitate the suprascapular notch leading to misidentification of these structures ...

Technique for Endoscopic Release of Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment at the Suprascapular Notch
Techniques in Shoulder and Elbow Surgery, 2006Purpose: Suprascapular nerve (SSN) entrapment by compression in its course through the suprascapular notch has been well documented. This usually requires an open incision which must split the trapezius muscle. We have developed a new arthroscopic endoscopic technique of SSN decompression using 3 portals, including a new direct superior access to the ...

Morphometric study of the suprascapular notch: proposal of classification
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2011The size and shape of the suprascapular notch (SSN) may be a factor in suprascapular nerve entrapment. The aim of the study was to determine the variation of the SSN of 86 scapulae in the Polish people.A total of 86 human scapulae were included in the study. Three measurements were defined and collected for every SSN: maximal depth (MD), superior (STD)

Ultrasonographic evaluation and morphometric measurements of the suprascapular notch
Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2009The aim of this study was to define the sonographic evaluation and morphometric measurements of the suprascapular notch.The suprascapular notch was evaluated by ultrasound on both sides in 50 volunteers (25 males, 25 females). By means of ultrasound, the notch width, the notch depth and the distance between the skin and the notch base (skin-notch base ...

Endoscopic Release of Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment at the Suprascapular Notch
2008A problem that has recently been recognized as a potential etiology of shoulder pain and weakness is suprascapular nerve entrapment. This was first described by Thompson and Koppel in 1959.1,2 As rotator cuff pathology is much more common, this problem was often overlooked and diagnosis was delayed.
