ABSTRACT
The current study was undertaken to assess the incidence of different types of suprascapular notch, acromion dimensions and the lower and upper scapular angles. The suprascapular notch and variations of the acromion are clinically important in suprascapular nerve compression and subacromial impingement. Measurements were taken from 73 Anatolian dry scapulae of unknown age or sex. The suprascapuar notch was classified according to that of Rengachary et al. (1979). Its width and depth, the distance between supraglenoid tubercle and the deepest point of notch, as well as the upper and lower scapular angles were also determine measured. The type of acromion was assessed according to shape (type I (cobra), type II (square), type III (intermediate)) and tilt (type I (flat), type II (curve). Acrmion length and the distance between acromion and coracoid process were also measured. The frequency of different types of suprascapular notch were type I (28.8 %), type II (23.3 %), type III (13.7 %), type IV (20.5 %), type V (2.7 %), type VI (5.5 %)and absence (5.5 %). Acromion type were type I (45.5 %), type II (7.5 %) and type III (47.0 %), acromion tilt type I (15.2 %), and type II (84.8 %). An understanding of the association between the anatomical structures of the scapula and morphometric measurements is clinically important.
RESUMEN
En este trabajo se evaluó la incidencia de diferentes tipos de incisura supraescapular, dimensiones de acromion y los ángulos escapulares superior e inferior. La incisura supraescapular y las variaciones del acromion son clínicamente importantes en la compresión del nervio supraescapular y el pinzamiento subacromial. Las mediciones se tomaron de 73 escápulas secas de Anatolia, de edad y sexo desconocidos. La incisura supraescapular se clasificó según Rengachary et al. (1979). Se determinaron también el ancho y la profundidad, la distancia entre el tubérculo supraglenoide y el punto más profundo de la incisura, así como los ángulos escapulares superior e inferior. El tipo de acromion se evaluó de acuerdo con la forma [tipo I (cobra), tipo II (cuadrado), tipo III (intermedio)] y la inclinación [tipo I (plano), tipo II (curvo)]. También se midieron la longitud del elemento y la distancia entre el acromion, como así también el proceso coracoide. La frecuencia de los diferentes tipos de incisura supraescapular fueron: tipo I (28,8 %), tipo II (23,3 %), tipo III (13,7 %), tipo IV (20,5 %), tipo V (2,7 %), tipo VI (5,5 %) y ausencia (5,5 %). Los tipos de acromion fueron: tipo I (45,5 %), tipo II (7,5 %) y tipo III (47,0 %), tipo de inclinación de acromion I (15,2 %) y tipo II (84,8 %). En conclusión, el conocimiento de la asociación entre las estructuras anatómicas de la escápula y las mediciones morfométricas es clínicamente importante.
