Post Operative Floating Shoulder Rehabilitation: A Rare Case
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 7
Abstract
We present a case of shoulder instability following a traffic accident. Allman Type I midshaft clavicle, IDEBERG type scapular wing with multiple ribs fractures were diagnosed following radiologic examination. There were no signs of ligamentous injury. Mechanical instability was noted at the shoulder due to breakage of the supportive bony skeleton. The patient was treated surgically with plate and screw fixation. Surgical fixation allowed early postoperative physiotherapy and rehabilitation. This rare injury and its treatment options are discussed in the light of current literature
