摘要：The suprascapular notch which is located on the lateral part of the superior border of the scapula, medial to the coracoid process, is bridged by the superior transverse scapular ligament. The notch serves as a passage for suprascapular nerve to pass to supraspinous fossa. Suprascapular nerve entrapment may be due to the variable morphology of the suprascapular notch or due to ossification of the superior transverse scapular ligament. Morphometric studies of suprascapular notch have been done in various populations. The aim of the present study is to review the morphometric studies of suprascapular notch, identify the most common type of notch and compare the morphometry in different populations.
