The suprascapular nerve passes through the suprascapular notch, deep to the superior transverse scapular ligament. This nerve is most likely affected in a fracture of the scapula as described in the question. The thoracodorsal nerve runs behind the axillary artery and lies superficial to the subscapularis muscle and would therefore be protected. The axillary nerve passes posteriorly through the quadrangular space, which is distal to the suprascapular notch. The subscapular nerve originates from the posterior cord of the brachial plexus, which is distal to the site of fracture.
