Скачать или смотреть Shoulder Joint Fracture | Types, Causes, Symptoms & Radiological Overview

A shoulder joint fracture refers to a break in one or more bones forming the shoulder joint, commonly involving the proximal humerus, clavicle, or scapula. These fractures usually occur due to trauma such as road traffic accidents, falls, sports injuries, or direct impact.
Patients may present with severe shoulder pain, swelling, bruising, restricted movement, and deformity. Diagnosis is primarily made using X-ray imaging, while CT scan or MRI may be required for complex or intra-articular fractures.
Management depends on the fracture type and severity and may include conservative treatment with immobilization or surgical intervention. This topic is important for medical students, radiology students, and healthcare professionals to understand anatomy, imaging findings, and fracture classification of the shoulder joint.
