Variations in bifid superior transverse scapular ligament as a possible factor of suprascapular entrapment: an anatomical study.
Polguj M, Jędrzejewski K, Majos A, Topol M. Polguj M, et al. Int Orthop. 2012 Oct;36(10):2095-100. doi: 10.1007/s00264-012-1618-2. Epub 2012 Jul 25. Int Orthop. 2012. PMID: 22829121 Free PMC article.
The purpose of this research was to investigate the influence of the superior transverse scapular ligament (STSL) on the reduced space for suprascapular nerve passage at the suprascapular notch. ...RESULTS: In three of 96 dissected shoulders (3.1 %), a bifid …

Does the inferior transverse scapular ligament cause distal suprascapular nerve entrapment? An anatomic and morphologic study.
Ide J, Maeda S, Takagi K. Ide J, et al. J Shoulder Elbow Surg. 2003 May-Jun;12(3):253-5. doi: 10.1016/s1058-2746(02)00030-7. J Shoulder Elbow Surg. 2003. PMID: 12851578
The number of reports on entrapment of the distal suprascapular nerve is increasing, but the incidence with regard to the inferior transverse scapular ligament remains controversial. Therefore, we investigated its incidence and anatomy in a series of c …
