Arthroscopy
Shane K. Woolf M.D., et al. - Conclusions: This study shows that the SM portal is safe. The distance between an instrument oriented toward the acromioclavicular joint via the SM portal and the suprascapular nerve was 18.5 mm or greater in all specimens. Our study has clinical relevance because the SM portal is useful for arthroscopic rotator cuff repair, arthroscopic superior labrum repair, and arthroscopic distal clavicle excision Arthroscopy
