title: Treatment of Shoulder Dislocation with Greater Tuberosity and Glenoid Fractures.
abstract: Large glenoid fractures are relatively uncommon with shoulder dislocation. Simultaneous glenoid and greater tuberosity fractures with anterior shoulder dislocation are very rare. We report on a 48-year right-handed male who sustained a fall during skiing. He had anterior shoulder dislocation combined with large glenoid fracture and greater tuberosity fracture. He was treated surgically with fixation of the glenoid and greater tuberosity fractures, using two different approaches. The deltopectoral approach with coracoid osteotomy and subscapularis split was used for glenoid fixation. McKenzie's approach was used for greater tuberosity fixation.
