INTRODUCTION:  The suprascapular notch (SSN) entrapment neuropathy common in volleyball players presents with dull ache. The current study aims to find out if any, the correlation between SSN and scapular dimensions and analyse the relation between SSN dimensions and types of notches.

METHOD: 68 dried humanscapulawere examined for 4 scapular parameters and 2 SSN variables . SSN was classified according to Rengachary’s method. For analysis mean, standard deviation, Pearson’s correlation and p–value were calculated.

RESULT: 4.4% scapula had ossified superior transverse ligament. 21 (30.9%) scapula had MD > STD, 40 (58.8%) scapula had STD > MD and 4 (5.9%) sacapula had MD = STD. Type IIIhad maximum (36.76%)and type IV had least (4.41%) frequency. The width/depth ratio was highest in type I.

CONCLUSION: Scapular dimensions had a weekly positive relation with SSN though not statistically significant. SSN dimensions with STD>MD were more in number than MD>STD.
