Bilateral scapular fractures in adults
Original language description
Bilateral scapular fracture is a very rare injury. Most of these fractures result from electrical shock or epileptic seizure. We treated six patients with such injuries, all of them caused by direct violence. The aim of this study was to report on the patients and to present an overview of the cases published so far. Between January 2011 and August 2012, we treated six patients with bilateral scapular fractures. Another 11 cases were found in the literature. Our six patients increased the total number of recorded cases to 17 and the number of patients with traumatic bilateral scapular fractures from four to ten. In five of our cases, the injuries were classified as being the result of high-energy trauma. Computed tomography (CT) examination of the affected scapulae was performed in all six cases, in five in combination with 3D CT reconstruction; in one polytraumatised female patient, only axial CT scans were obtained. In all five high-energy trauma cases, bilateral fracture of the scap
