The ligament is sometimes ossified. The suprascapular nerve passes below the ligament and enters the supraspinous fossa, whereas the suprascapular vessels pass backwards above the ligament. During routine osteological class for I MBBS students we came across a scapula with completely ossified suprascapular ligament. Suprascapular nerve is mostly susceptible for entrapment at the suprascapular notch. A narrow notch or a calcified ligament has been shown to cause increased risk of injury to the suprascapular nerve.&#13;
