title: CT diagnosis of fracture of the coracoid process of the scapula.
abstract: A case of fracture of the coracoid process of the scapula is presented in which the findings were not apparent on plain films. CT demonstrated the fracture, and the absence of soft tissue mass suggested a remote traumatic etiology rather than metastatic disease. The findings were confirmed surgically and pathologically.
