“…cuff tears, 2,4,5,10,12,13,16,17 and arthroscopic anterior or double interval slide performed when the margins of the tear cannot be inserted on the footprint. 5 In particular, in the latter case, the incision of the tendons may lead to an injury of the nerve, either at the scapular notch or the base of the scapular spine.…”

Introduction Suprascapular nerve neuropathy related to rotator cuff tears has become a topic of discussion. However, there are a few studies to support suprascapular nerve neuropathy in cases of (massive) rotator cuff tears. There are also a few studies showing the indication for concomitant suprascapular nerve release; however, several clinical and basic studies provide some evidence that suprascapular nerve injury may be a part of the disease spectrum of rotator cuff pathology. In this short review article, suprascapular neuropathy related to rotator cuff tears is discussed. Conclusion Till date, there are a few studies to support suprascapular nerve neuropathy in cases of (massive) rotator cuff tears. Future studies will hopefully serve to elucidate these issues.
