Abstract:

Snapping scapula is a relatively uncommon source of scapular pain. A survey of the literature reveals a variety of causes of this syndrome. In the case presented here, the symptoms of this syndrome were immediately and permanently relieved by surgical excision of scapular abnormalities and part of the medial scapular border.

Muscles of the Shoulder01:23

Muscles of the Shoulder

The muscles surrounding the shoulder girdle, including the clavicle and scapula, primarily stabilize the scapula. This stable base allows other muscles to move the humerus effectively. Scapular movements often mirror those of the humerus and extend its range of motion. For instance, raising the arm above the head would not be feasible without simultaneous upward rotation of the scapula.

The anterior thoracic muscles include the serratus anterior, subclavius, and...
