Scapulothoracic Anatomy and Snapping Scapula Syndrome
The scapulothoracic articulation is a sliding junction between the deep aspect of the scapula and thoracic rib cage at the levels of ribs 2 through 7. Motion at this articulation is dynamically stabilized by a variety of muscular attachments, allowing for controlled positioning of the glenoid to assist in glenohumeral joint function. A thorough understanding of the complex anatomic relationship...
متن کاملArthroscopic Scapulothoracic Decompression for Snapping Scapula Syndrome.
Snapping scapula syndrome at the superomedial corner of the scapula can lead to significant shoulder dysfunction. Bursectomy with or without partial scapulectomy is currently the most beneficial primary method of treatment in patients in whom nonoperative therapy fails. Arthroscopic access to the scapulothoracic space is simple and reproducible with the technique described in this report. The b...
متن کاملClinical Management of Scapulothoracic Bursitis and the Snapping Scapula

Scapulothoracic bursitis refers to inflammation of the bursae se...
متن کاملSnapping scapula syndrome.
Snapping scapula syndrome arises from either a soft-tissue or a skeletal anomaly within the scapulothoracic space that creates a cracking sound during scapulothoracic motion that patients associate with pain. Nonoperative measures consisting of supervised physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and therapeutic injections are the mainstay of treatment. Open, arthroscopic, and combined o...
متن کاملOutcome of Scapulothoracic Arthroscopy for Painful Snapping Scapula
INTRODUCTION Patients with scapulothoracic syndrome present with pain in the scapulothoracic area aggravated by overhead and repetitive shoulder movements. The aim of our study was to assess the outcome of scapulothoracic arthroscopic treatment in patients with painful snapping scapula in our institution. METHODS Fourteen patients underwent scapulothoracic arthroscopic treatment for painful s...
