Glenoid fractures are rare. The traditional method for treating them is open reduction and internal fixation in arthrotomy. Arthroscopic reduction with percutaneous fixation is used in selected fractures (of tibial plateau, ankle, distal radius). We describe the surgical technique adopted to treat a multiple, Y-shaped articular glenoid fracture using arthroscopy and percutaneous fixation.
We report the case of a 66-year-old woman with a tumorous swelling of the right shoulder of approximately 6 months' duration with morphological features consistent with desmoplastic fibroblastoma or collagenous fibroma, a benign fibrous soft tissue tumor with distinct clinico-pathological features. Clinical history, radiological and pathological findings are presented and other cases of collagenous fibroma with unusual location are discussed.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
