Abstract

Management of persistent symptomatic Scapulo-Thoracic Abnormal Motion (STAM) in the absence of periscapular muscle paralysis may be challenging. This study reports the outcomes of arthroscopic pectoralis minor release and scapulopexy for the management of symptomatic STAM secondary to pectoralis minor hyperactivity and serratus anterior hypoactivity in the absence of periscapular paralysis.
