Popis: | Isolated acromial fractures are very rare in practical traumatology. Acromion fractures are usually due to violent trauma, associated with other serious lesions. Following observation of a clinical case of a fracture at the base of the acromion associated with a mal-union of the ipsi-lateral clavicle, the authors have reviewed the literature of isolated acromial fractures. The clinical observation reported here confirms the involvement of the claviculo-scapular system in the production of these fractures. |
