Abstract:
Entrapment neuropathy of the suprascapular nerve is rare and frequently overlooked in the differential diagnosis of shoulder pain. There have been few published reports on a ganglion compressing the suprascapular nerve. We experienced a case of entrapment neuropathy of the suprascapular nerve by a ganglion that compressed the inferior branch of suprascapular nerve at the spinoglenoid notch.
