Abstract

We report seven cases of scapular fractures treated by plate fixation. Subjects consisted of five males and two females with a mean age of 46.1 years (range: 22-59 years). The follow-up period ranged from six to eighty-two months with an average of 35.1 months. The fractures were classified into two tyes; 1) fracture of the glenoid (2 cases) and 2) fractures of the body, neck or acromion (5 cases). Associated injuries were present in three cases. The results of the treatment were evaluated by the range of movement, pain and muscle power.<br>Cases with fractures of the glenoid or those with associates injuries, showed poorer results especially with regard to restriction of movement. The time of onset of rehabilitation also influenced the results.
