𝐂𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐱 𝐒𝐜𝐚𝐩𝐮𝐥𝐚 (𝐆𝐥𝐞𝐧𝐨𝐢𝐝 & 𝐀𝐜𝐫𝐨𝐦𝐢𝐨𝐧) – 𝐓𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐀𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐫𝐨𝐬𝐜𝐨𝐩𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 A complex scapula fracture involving the glenoid and acromion can be a devastating shoulder injury. If left untreated or managed poorly, it can result in severe arthritis and chronic shoulder dysfunction.

🔍 In this video, we share the real-life story of a patient with a rare shoulder fracture that was managed entirely using arthroscopic surgery — a minimally invasive and technically advanced method used by only a few top shoulder surgeons worldwide.

🔧 Traditionally, such injuries are managed with a large incision and open surgery, which carries several risks. However, with the advancement of arthroscopic techniques, this case was treated through tiny keyhole cuts using a high-definition arthroscope, leading to a faster recovery and minimal scarring.

📈 Recovery & Outcome: ✅ Fracture united within 6 months ✅ Full return to shoulder function ✅ Pain-free, active lifestyle resumed ✅ No complications or arthritis
