Double suprascapular foramen: a rare scapular notch variation
Abstract
Anomalies and developmental variations of organs and anatomical structures are always at special attention since they often have clinical significance and at the same time may present a clinical challenge. The double suprascapular foramen is considered to be a rare variation of development and there were only few cases described in the literature. It also was proposed as a possible cause of suprascapular nerve entrapment syndrome. We present a case of double suprascapular foramen in a male cadaver with a review of its importance and probable cause.
