Snapping scapulae: a report of three cases
European Journal of Rheumatology and Inflammation
|January 1, 1984
Abstract:
Snapping scapula or retroscapular pain is uncommon, and few cases require surgical intervention. In three cases the symptoms were such as to eventually require surgery. No obvious cause was found but excision of the 2 cm of the medial scapular border resulted in prompt and permanent pain relief. Why this should be so is a mystery.
