Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment Secondary to Compression at Suprascapular Notch: A Case Report [PDF]
, 2012 Suprascapular nerve entrapment at spinoglenoid notch is rare but well documented. Kopell and Thompson (1) are always credited with providing the first description of the suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome in English literature (2,3) but in fact the ...

Variations in the Shape and Dimension of the Suprascapular Notch in Dried Human Scapula-An Osteological Study with its Clinical Implications [PDF]
International Journal of Anatomy Radiology and Surgery, 2016 Introduction: The suprascapular notch is a depression on the superior border of scapula which gives passage to the suprascapular nerve to enter the supraspinatus fossa. During its course there is a chance of entrapment of the nerve while in the notch

Morphometry of the suprascapular notch: correlation with scapular dimensions and clinical relevance [PDF]
, 2013 Background: Better knowledge of the suprascapular notch anatomy may help to prevent and to assess more accurately suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome. Our purposes were to verify the reliability of the existing data, to assess the differences between

MORPHOLOGY AND MORPHOMETRIC ANALYSIS OF SUPRASCAPULAR NOTCH
International Journal of Biomedical and Advance Research, 2013 The morphology of the suprascapular notch (SSN) has been associated with suprascapular entrapment neuropathy, and injury to the suprascapular nerve in arthroscopic shoulder procedures. This study aimed to describe the morphology and morphometry of the suprascapular notch in dry scapulae. The present study was done in 314 dry scapulae obtained from B. J.
