Fracture of the scapuls is one of the rare bony injuries seen in hospital practice. Authors reviewed the records and the roentgenograms of forty three patients from April 1976 to March 1987. The results were as follows : l. Of the 43 cases, peak incidence was in the middle aged men with high activity, and age range was 30 to 50 years. 2. The most common cause of injury was the motor vehicle accident. 3. Twenty eight cases of the scapular fracture occurred in the body, and eleven had fractures more than two parts in the scapuls. The most common type was the combined fracture of the body and neck. 4. A severe force was required to produce the injury and 79% of the patients had combined injuries of head and chest. 5. Delay in diagnosis was frequent because of the masking effect of the associated injury. 6. Although results of conservative measurements on the scapular fracture are generally good, we feel that treatment on more active line should be undertaken in young and active patients with fracture involving glenoid.
