Term
What is the superior transverse scapular ligament?
Definition
The ligament that goes over the suprascapular notch and makes it into a foramen
Term
What goes through the suprascapular foramen?
Definition
Suprascapular Nerve, sometimes the suprascapular artery and vein
Term
Why does the suprascapular artery and vein typically not go through the suprascapular foramen?
Definition
Since arteries and veins have a lumen they tend to grow away from enclosed spaces such as a foramen
