title: [Trans-trapezial approach to the incisura scapulae in incisura scapulae syndrome. An anatomic study].
abstract: Suprascapular entrapment neuropathy represents a chronic lesion of the suprascapular nerve due to compression, traction and/or friction within the area of the suprascapular notch. The surgical treatment consists of excision of the entire suprascapular ligament. The surgical exposure of the suprascapular notch through the trapezius muscle is illustrated using anatomical dissections.
