Abstract

Routine dissection has identified a previously unrecorded scapular ligament found unilaterally in 58-year-old male cadaver. The ligament was found coursing in a superior inferior direction, distal to the transverse scapular ligament and proximal to the spinoglenoid notch. The suprascapular nerve and artery were found passing beneath the unusual ligament. The current finding and clinical significance are discussed.
