ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the technique and result of arthroscopic suprascapular nerve release.Methods From February 2008 to February 2011, nine cases of suprascapular nerve compression were treated.Four of them were transverse scapular ligament compression,and 5 cases with cyst compression around spinoglenoid notch,one case was double nerve compression.The patients were manifested nerve compressive symptoms, and MRI, EMG can be a useful tool to identify the locations of compressions. All the patients were treament with arthroscopic nerve release, by transverse scapular ligament releasing or cyst removing. Results The average follow up time was 10 months,the symptoms disappeared,the atrophy or weakness of supraspinatus and infraspinatus muscles were significantly improved after operation. Conclusion The Arthroscopic suprascapular nerve release is an effective,miniinvasive,and fast recovery technique.
