Classification of suprascapular notch according to anatomical measurements in human scapulae.
The objective of this study was to measure the maximum superior and inferior lengths of the suprascapular notch with the help of a Vernier caliper and to classify the notches accordingly into four types. This is an observational study, conducted from January to December 2009 at Islamic International Medical College, Rawalpindi. Two hundred and fifty dried human scapulae were procured and measur...
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 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 کاملVariations in the Shape and Dimension of the Suprascapular Notch in Dried Human Scapula-An Osteological Study with its Clinical Implications
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 due to its variant shapes and dimensions which leads to suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome Aim: The purpose of the study was to determine the...
متن کاملMorphometric study of suprascapular notch in Indian dry scapulae with specific reference to the incidence of completely ossified superior transverse scapular ligament.
BACKGROUND The suprascapular notch, a depression on the lateral part of the superior border of the scapula, medial to the coracoid process, is bridged by the superior transverse scapular ligament, which is sometimes ossified and the foramen which is thus completed, transmits the suprascapular nerve to the supraspinatus fossa. Variations in the morphology of suprascapular notch have been identif...
