Fractures that occur in the scapular body are the type most likely to be accompanied by other injuries; other bony and soft tissue injuries accompany these fractures 80–95% of the time. [3] Associated injuries can be serious and potentially deadly, [ 3 ] and usually it is the associated injuries, rather than the scapular fracture, that have ...
The Müller AO Classification of fractures is a system for classifying bone fractures initially published in 1987 [1] by the AO Foundation as a method of categorizing injuries according to therognosis of the patient's anatomical and functional outcome. "AO" is an initialism for the German "Arbeitsgemeinschaft für Osteosynthesefragen", the ...
The Ideberg classification is a system of categorizing scapula fractures involving the glenoid fossa. Classification. Type
The scapula (pl.: scapulae or scapulas [1]), also known as the shoulder blade, is the bone that connects the humerus (upper arm bone) with the clavicle (collar bone). Like their connected bones, the scapulae are paired, with each scapula on either side of the body being roughly a mirror image of the other.
The original technique was first described by Eden [4] in 1924 and verified by Lange in the 1950s. [5] [6] The rhomboid major and rhomboid minor were transferred laterally from the medial border of the scapula to the infraspinatous fossa, and the levator scapulae was transferred laterally to the spine of the scapula, near the acromion.
Lateral view demonstrating the articular surface of the right scapula is shown. Symptoms: Shoulder instability and widespread shoulder discomfort, and catching, locking, or popping feelings in shoulders. [1] Risk factors: Anterior shoulder dislocation and/or repeated anterior shoulder subluxations. [2] Diagnostic method: X-ray and MRI ...
"In terms of comparative anatomy the human scapula represents two bones that have become fused together; the (dorsal) scapula proper and the (ventral) coracoid. The epiphyseal line across the glenoid cavity is the line of fusion. They are the counterparts of the ilium and ischium of the pelvic girdle." —
