Popis: Objective To evaluate the clinical and electrophysiological results in the medium term of the arthroscopic release of the proximal entrapment of the suprascapular nerve. Material and method It is a retrospective study that includes 75 patients with idiopathic entrapment of the suprascapular nerve in the suprascapular notch in whom conservative treatment has failed. All patients underwent electrophysiological tests (EMG) as well as clinical test (Constant and DASH test) preoperatively and during follow-up. Results 75 patients (53 women and 22 men) with a mean age of 44,1 ± 10,7 years met study criteria with a mean follow-up of 63,7 ± 29,1 months. Preoperatively the DASH value was 78,6 ± 10,2, the Constant test value was 37,1 ± 8,8 and the EVA value was 8, 8 ± 1.1 while the values ​​in the last revision were 19,4 ± 15,8 for DASH, 80,2 ± 9,6 (for the CS and 2 ± 1,3 for the EVA scale; the differences were significant in all cases (p Conclusions The arthroscopic release of idiopathic entrapment of the suprascapular nerve in the superior scapular notch achieved good clinical and electrophysiological results in the medium term. Level of evidence Level IV; Case series; Treatment study.
