摘要
Isolated fractures of the greater tuberosity represent 14-21% of all proximal humeral fractures. Lesser tuberosity fractures have mainly been mentioned in case reports. We report a rare case of a combination of a lesser tuberosity avulsion with a multifragment fracture of the greater tuberosity of the proximal humerus in a young man. The injury mechanism might be a complex interaction between abduction and external rotation with impaction and shearing against the glenoid and acromion.
