Anatomic landmarks for arthroscopic suprascapular nerve decompression
2016
Purpose
Arthroscopic suprascapular nerve (SSN) decompression has become a more frequently utilized procedure in the treatment of SSN entrapment and has gained popularity over recent years. Despite increasing technical notes and outcomes information regarding this technique, there remains a paucity of data with respect to clear anatomic guidelines for teaching this procedure. The purpose of this study was to provide guidelines that are visible arthroscopically and palpable externally to allow safer and more efficient surgery for arthroscopic decompression by analysing the superior scapular anatomy with respect to local landmarks.
