Scapulothoracic bursitis involves inflammation of the scapulothoracic bursa caused by overuse of the shoulder or traumatic injury. Conservative management is recommended initially, and a surgical approach, such as bursectomy or scapular angle resection, is indicated later. Scapulothoracic bursitis in a patient with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) has been rarely reported in the literature. A 34-year-old woman was hospitalized in our hospital for a palpable mass on the right side of her back. She had a history of SLE, which was diagnosed and treated with medication 13 years prior. Chest magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed fluid collection measuring 6.0 cm × 6.0 cm × 2.0 cm between the rib cage and subscapularis muscle. Histopathological examination identified the mass as bursitis with cystic degeneration. Surgical excision was performed at the infrascapular area. About 11 months later, the mass recurred in the same area. Surgical excision was again performed in the same way as before, and the same diagnosis was confirmed. Every 6 months, ultrasound examination is being conducted to assess for recurrence. The patient has not had any further complications or a relapse for the last 3 years. Prompt bursectomy can be a definitive and long-lasting treatment option for scapulothoracic bursitis accompanied by SLE.

Anatomical studiesThe transverse cervical artery appears stable in anatomy, with a length ranging from 4.0 to 7.0 cm, and a mean diameter of 2.65 mm (1). The transverse cervical vein was present in 61 of 72 cadaveric specimens, with a length ranging from 4.0 to 7.0 cm, and a mean diameter of 2.90 mm (1). As early as the 1940 s, an anatomical atlas suggested that the superficial branch of the transverse cervical artery might supply blood to the skin near the clavicle (3). In 1979, Lamberty confirmed through anatomical and clinical research that the skin in the supraclavicular region was supplied by a stable cutaneous branch of the transverse cervical artery and that this skin could be made into an axial flap (3). He first referred to this flap as the "supraclavicular axial patterned flap" (3). However, early anatomical studies only found the
