Shoulder ultrasound in the diagnosis of the suprascapular neuropathy in athletes

Abstrakt

Purpose: Shoulder pain and weakness are common symptoms in athletes who play sports connected with overhead throwing. Suprascapular neuropathy may be one of the reason of such signs.The aim of the study was to find out if ultrasound examination of the shoulder in athletes reveals signs of suprascapular neuropathy. Methods: This was a cross-sectional study in which 67 pro- fessional volleyball, handball and rugby players of polish teams without shoulder disorders, which have played sport for 10 or more years, were included. An ultrasound examination of both shoulders was performed. Exclud- ing criteria were recent shoulder and/or neck trauma and neurological disorders. Results: No ultrasound signs of suprascapular neuropathy were seen in any player. The only finding was enthesop- athy of supraspinatus muscle and this finding was con- nected with athletes’ age, type of sport and with dominant hand. It had statistical significance with p-value respec- tively 0.01 for athletes’ age, 0.0208 for sport type and 0.03 for dominant hand. Conclusions: Ultrasonography should not be used as the screening examination of shoulders in athletes, but it can sometimes be an additional tool to help to diagnose shoul- der disorders.
