Patologia supraescapular e o quisto supraglenoideu : uma revisão teórica

Abstract

Suprascapular neuropathy secondary to compression by a supraglenoid cyst has been increasingly found as a cause of shoulder pain. Despite its relatively low prevalence, it should be considered as a possible diagnosis, especially in overhead athletes, through a combination of objective examination and complementary diagnostic tests, since that, these tests separately, they cannot adequately explain the patient's symptoms. Magnetic resonance imaging is the ideal exam to identify voluminous lesions and other pathological entities of the shoulder, such as supraglenoid cysts. Nevertheless, it is only with electromyography and nerve conduction velocity studies that the diagnosis of suprascapular neuropathy is confirmed. Initial treatment of isolated suprascapular neuropathy is typically conservative: it includes rest, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and physical therapy. However, whenever in the presence of nerve compression due to a mass or constant reported pain and/or weakness, surgical intervention plays an important role. Overall, suprascapular neuropathy secondary to supraglenoid cyst is a treatable condition with potentially good outcomes. Nonetheless, different treatment strategies are required, depending on the location and type of nerve injury, which leads to some controversy regarding the best method of treatment. Through a review of several databases, we hope that a more detailed and concise knowledge of suprascapular neuropathy secondary to supraglenoid cyst, can contribute to the development of new diagnostic and treatment approaches.

A neuropatia supraescapular secundária à compressão por um quisto supraglenoideu tem sido cada vez mais encontrada como causa de omalgia. Apesar da sua prevalência relativamente baixa, deve ser considerada como possível diagnóstico, principalmente em doentes desportistas, com exame objectivo e exames complementares de diagnóstico incapazes de explicar adequadamente a sintomatologia do doente. A ressonância magnética é o exame ideal para visualizar lesões que ocupam espaço, das quais os quistos supraglenoideus são um exemplo. Contudo, o diagnóstico de neuropatia supraescapular apenas é conclusivo quando à ressonância magnética se associam a electromiografia e os estudos de velocidade de condução nervosa. O tratamento inicial da neuropatia supraescapular isolada é tipicamente conservador, engloba repouso, terapêutica com antiinflamatórios não esteróides e fisioterapia. Porém, na presença de compressão nervosa por uma massa ou dor e/ou fraqueza continuadas, a terapêutica cirúrgica pode ter um papel importante. De uma forma geral, a neuropatia supraescapular secundária ao quisto supraglenoideu é uma condição tratável com resultados potencialmente bons. Dependendo da localização específica e do tipo de lesão do nervo, é necessário recorrer-se a diferentes estratégias de tratamento, área controversa quanto à escolha do melhor método terapêutico Nesta tese pretende-se fazer uma revisão do estado de arte sobre a neuropatia supraescapular secundária ao quisto supraglenoideu e uma pesquisa sobre novas abordagens de diagnóstico e terapêutica.
