title: [SUPRASCAPULAR NEUROPATHY].
abstract: Supra-scapular nerve (SSN) damage is a rare, but classical diagnosis that can often be overlooked since the nonspecific clinical history and examination commonly lead to the misdiagnosis of another shoulder disorder. This article details the etiopathology, the patients at risk, the reasons for consultation and the clinical aspects of suprascapular neuropathy; it also outlines its diagnostic and therapeutic approaches.
