Abstract
Aim. Evaluation of the results of surgical treatment of patients with neuropathy of the suprascapular nerve.
Materials and methods. In the department of sports and ballet injury of CITO them N.N. Priorov in 2013–2014 11 arthroscopic decompression of the supramandular nerve were performed. All patients underwent radiography and MRI of the shoulder joint and electroneuromyography of the brachial plexus.
Results. After decompression, all patients underwent repeated electroneuromyography 2 months after the operation, then according to indications. In all cases, an increase in M-response was noted. A complete recovery of clinically and an increase in the M-response of more than half the norm (contralateral) and more to the normal value was observed after 5–8 months.
Conclusion. The use of modern minimally invasive methods of surgical etiotropic treatment of the neuropathy of the suprascapular nerve helps to achieve, as a rule, good and excellent results, even in old cases.
