Shoulder Impingement, An Uncommon Complication of Distal Clavicle Fracture Treated Arthroscopically: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
UNLABELLED Clavicle fracture is commonly treated conservatively. However uncommon complication can arise causing impingement. We report a patient who sustained distal clavicle fracture and was treated conservatively. However he developed persistent shoulder pain that affected his daily life. Shoulder impingement was diagnosed and arthroscopic subacromioclavicular decompression was done. Following early physiotherapy the early recovery was good with full range of motion of the shoulder. KEY WORDS Clavicle fracture, shoulder impingement, arthroscopic subacromioclavicular decompression.

Arthroscopic Cortical Button Stabilization of Isolated Acute Neer Type II Fractures of the Distal Clavicle.
Neer type II distal clavicle fractures are inherently unstable. The purpose of this study was to review the outcome of Neer type II distal clavicle fractures arthroscopically treated using a suspensory cortical button technique. Between 2008 and 2012, a total of 17 Neer type IIB fractures were managed operatively at the authors' institution. Functional outcomes were assessed using the pain scor...
متن کاملFunctional Results of Unstable (Type 2) Distal Clavicle Fractures Treated with Superior Anterior Locking Plate
Background: The treatment of distal clavicle fracture is always a challenge, as it is mostly unstable and has higherrate of delayed union, malunion, non-union and associated acromioclavicular arthritis. So the management of thesefractures remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional results of Type 2 distal endclavicle fractures treated with superior anterior l...

BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to investigate the anatomic changes in the shoulder joints responsible for omalgia after the clavicular hook plate fixation under arthroscope. METHODS Arthroscopic examination was carried out for 12 omalgia patients who underwent clavicular hook plate fixation due to distal clavicle fractures. Functional outcome of shoulder was measured by the Japanese Orth...

INTRODUCTION Acromion fractures are extremely rare. There are no common accepted treatment schemes and fixation methods We aimed to present a case which may contribute to the diagnosis and treatment of acromion fracture in a patient with polytrauma. PRESENTATION OF CASE Acromion fracture associated with scapula and clavicle fractures was diagnosed in 40 years old patient and treated with open...
متن کاملIpsilateral nonunions of the coracoid process and distal clavicle--a rare shoulder girdle fracture pattern.
Coracoid fractures are uncommon injuries, in isolation or in association with other osseoligamentous injuries about the shoulder girdle. We report a case of successful operative management of symptomatic ipsilateral nonunions of a type I coracoid base fracture and a lateral one-third clavicular fracture, which developed following nonoperative treatment of this exceedingly rare injury pattern. F...
