title: [Glenoid fossa fracture].
abstract: 4 patients with displaced intra-articular glenoid fossa were treated either surgically or conservatively. After an average follow-up of 7 years, the clinical and radiographic results were satisfactory in all. The 2 treated surgically required shorter follow-up than those treated conservatively. Conservative treatment should be considered a good option for displaced intra-articular glenoid fossa fracture.
