AIDO, Ricardo et al. Fractura da apófise coracoide associada a luxação acrómio-clavicular. Rev. Port. Ortop. Traum. [online]. 2012, vol.20, n.3, pp.365-370. ISSN 1646-2122.
The frature of the coracoid process associated with acromioclavicular dislocation is a very rare injury and seldom reported in the literature. The authors present a case report of a 33 years old male patient, which suffered a high-energy trauma of the right upper limb. The clinical and imaging exam performed revealed frature of coracoid process with concurrently dislocation of the acromioclavicular joint. The surgical procedure consisted in open reduction and coracoid fixation with 3.5 mm cannulated screw associated with acromioclavicular joint transfixation by two Kirschner wires. The recommended surgical treatment with tenotomy of the subscapularis allowed a better visualization and reduction of the coracoid frature. The choosen treatment allowed to obtain a good outcome.
