Suprascapular Notch Asymmetry: A Study on 311 Patients
The most important risk factor of suprascapular nerve entrapment is probably the shape of the suprascapular notch (SSN). The aim of the study was to perform a radiological study of the symmetry of SSN. Included in the study were 311 patients (137 women and 174 men) who underwent standard computed tomography investigation of the chest. A total of 622 computed tomography scans of scapulae were re...
متن کاملSexual dimorphism of the suprascapular notch – morphometric study
INTRODUCTION The concept of the study was to compare the morphometry of the suprascapular notch (SSN) in females and males because its size and shape may be a factor in suprascapular nerve entrapment. MATERIAL AND METHODS The measurements of 81 scapulae included morphological length and width, maximal width and length projection of the scapular spine, and width and length of the glenoid cavit...
متن کاملA study on the morphology of the suprascapular notch and its distance from the glenoid cavity.
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 the suprascapular nerve in arthroscopic procedures. The knowledge on the variations along the course of the nerve is important in understanding the s...
متن کاملA Study on Morphometry and Morphological Variation of Suprascapular Notch in Dried Human Scapula
Introduction: The Suprascapular Notch (SSN) is located at the superior border of the scapula, just medial to the base of the coracoid process. The knowledge of variations in shapes and dimensions can be helpful to clinicians to correlate the suprascapular nerve entrapment with a specific type of notch. Aim: This study was carried out to observe morphological variation in shapes of SSN and morph...
متن کاملA Shortcut to Arthroscopic Suprascapular Nerve Decompression at the Suprascapular Notch: Arthroscopic Landmarks and Surgical Technique
Arthroscopic suprascapular nerve decompression at the suprascapular notch is a technically demanding surgical procedure with a steep learning curve. The aim of this Technical Note is to describe important pearls for an arthroscopic decompression of the suprascapular nerve relying on the palpation of the coracoclavicular ligaments before starting the arthroscopic visualization. This reduces the ...
