Morphometry of the Scapular Notch and Its Clinical Implication in Suprascapular Nerve Entrapment.

: The aim of the present study was to evaluate the relationship between the type of scapular notch (SN), the morphometry of the SN, and the area of the suprascapular nerve (SSN). In addition to determining whether scapular notches other than Type VI, according to the classification of Rengachary, can generate a predisposition to SSN entrapment neuropathy. : One hundred and sixty-nine dry scapulae were examined, the scapular notches were classified, according to the classification of Rengachary, and for each SN, the superior transverse diameter (STD), longitudinal diameter (LD), and area of the SN were determined.
