�We experienced a case of impingement caused by a bone fragment which was impacted between acromion and humeral head in a child. The bone fragment came from antero-inferior glenoid fracture. Satisfactory clinical results and stability were obtained by arthroscopic bone fragment removal. In case that bone fragment is located in the upper shoulder joint and results in impingement, We must consider not only greater tubercle fracture but also glenoid fracture. Magnetic resonance imaging can assist in the preoperative diagnosis.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
