Abstract Background Suprascapular nerve entrapment is a rare disorder that is frequently misdiagnosed as another disease. The suprascapular nerve is commonly entrapped at the following two sites: the suprascapular and spinoglenoid notches. Nerve entrapment at the spinoglenoid notch causes infraspinatus muscle weakness and atrophy. Patients present with posterior shoulder pain and weakness. Magnetic resonance imaging is used to confirm the diagnosis of a spinoglenoid cyst and nerve compression. Open or arthroscopic aspiration or decompression is indicated for patients with cysts in whom conservative treatment has failed and those with cysts associated with suprascapular nerve compression. Case presentation Herein, we describe the case of a 49-year-old man with suprascapular nerve entrapment caused by a large cyst, namely, a hematoma, in the superior scapular and spinoglenoid notches. Open surgical decompression of the suprascapular nerve was performed owing to an intact rotator cuff and glenoid labrum. Conclusion Posterior shoulder pain promptly resolved without complications. |
