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 ...

A standardized ultrasound approach in neuralgic amyotrophy
Abstract Neuralgic amyotrophy (NA), also referred to as idiopathic brachial plexitis and Parsonage‐Turner syndrome, is a peripheral nerve disorder characterized by acute severe shoulder pain followed by progressive upper limb weakness and muscle atrophy.

Impact of Peripheral Nerve Block Technique on Incidence of Phrenic Nerve Palsy in Shoulder Surgery
Peripheral nerve blocks are an increasingly common method of providing postoperative analgesia for shoulder surgeries. However, the standard technique, the interscalene block (ISB), inevitably causes hemidiaphragmatic paresis (HDP), secondary to phrenic nerve palsy. This can cause morbidity in patients with preexisting respiratory compromise, prompting

A Geometric Morphometric Study of Scapular Ontogeny in Modern Humans. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Objectives This paper quantifies the size and shape change of the human scapula through ontogeny to better understand the human trajectory of growth. While previous work has touched on human scapular ontogeny, analysis using 3D geometric morphometrics focusing on humans alone has not been conducted.

Hiding in Plain Sight‐ancient Chinese anatomy
Abstract For thousands of years, scientists have studied human anatomy by dissecting bodies. Our knowledge of their findings is limited, however, both by the subsequent loss of many of the oldest texts, and by a tendency toward a Eurocentric perspective in medicine.

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.

Glomus Tumor: “A‐Not‐So‐Rare” Cause of Chronic Shoulder Pain—A Case Report and Literature Review
Case. A 61‐year‐old male presented with chronic shoulder pain resistant to conservative treatment. Imaging identified a nodular lesion in the deltoid muscle, which histology after resection identified as a glomus tumor. After surgery, the patient became asymptomatic and at 4‐year follow‐up has not shown signs of recurrence. Conclusion.

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.

Cadaveric evaluation of the feasibility of glenohumeral joint denervation
Abstract Purpose To assess the feasibility of total shoulder denervation through two proposed incisions. Methods Total shoulder denervation was performed through an extended delta‐pectoral approach and a transverse dorsal approach at the spine of the scapula. The study involved six cadavers.
