Core Tip This report describes a case of scapular winging as a result of dorsal scapular nerve injury. Only few cases of winged scapula due to rhomboid paralysis are reported in the literature. Although scapular winging can seriously impair shoulder function, no dynamic techniques have been described to treat this condition. This case reveals that contralateral trapezius compound osteomuscular flap transfer can successfully stabilize lateral scapular winging due to a dorsal scapular nerve injury, while improving shoulder function and affording pain relief.
