Transfer of the rhomboid nerve to the suprascapular nerve: An anatomical feasibility study.
Paralysis of the suprascapular nerve, in partial injuries of the brachial plexus, most often warrants a nerve transfer. Transfer of the spinal accessory nerve to the suprascapular nerve is performed most often. We propose to directly transfer the nerve of the rhomboid muscles (branch of the dorsal scapular nerve) to the suprascapular nerve in the supraspinatus fossa. This anatomical study inclu...
متن کاملAnatomical Considerations of the Suprascapular Nerve in Rotator Cuff Repairs
Introduction. When using the double interval slide technique for arthroscopic repair of chronic large or massive rotator cuff tears, the posterior interval release is directed toward the scapular spine until the fat pad that protects the suprascapular nerve is reached. Injury to the suprascapular nerve can occur due to the nerve's proximity to the operative field. This study aimed to identify s...
متن کاملAnatomical Evaluation of a Technique for Suprascapular Nerve Blockade
Introduction: Analgesia following shoulder surgery commonly uses interscalene nerve blockade. When contraindicated (i.e. respiratory compromise), suprascapular nerve blockade can provide a viable alternative. Although a number of techniques have been used, Barber in 2005 described a simple method using anatomical landmarks. While theoretically straightforward, substantive evidence supporting th...
متن کاملSpinal nerve root compositions of musculocutaneous nerve: an anatomical study.
AIM This study was aimed to investigate the variations in the spinal nerve root compositions of musculocutaneous nerve and to confirm which spinal nerve root is the main ingredient in participating amount. MATERIAL AND METHODS A total of 20 fresh cadavers were dissected. Brachial plexus and its branches were extracted. Musculocutaneous nerve stump was traced back to the roots to identify its ...
متن کاملSuprascapular nerve entrapment.
It is important to be aware of neuropathy involving the suprascapular nerve. While direct trauma to the suprascapular nerve is the usual cause (direct blow to the base of the neck or posterior shoulder, shoulder dislocation or fracture), the problem may result from overuse injuries (such as repetitive tennis serving or spiking of a volley ball), excessive horizontal adduction, weight lifting, b...
