Abstract:
A fracture of the scapula is frequently associated with other significant injuries. In the case described, a motorcycle accident victim sustained multiple injuries, including a scapular fracture associated with a tear of the subclavian artery, demonstrated by angiography and confirmed at operation. A literature review revealed no similar case.
