Abstract:
Scapulothoracic dissociation is a rare and potentially limb- and life-threatening injury, that results from high-energy trauma. Scapulothoracic dissociation has the potential to be overlooked in the acute setting, especially in the setting of polytrauma. Therefore, a careful search for this condition should be performed in all patients with high-energy shoulder girdle injuries. The goals of this article are to review the anatomy of the scapulothoracic articulation as well as the spectrum, imaging evaluation, differential diagnosis and management of scapulothoracic dissociations.
