Repositioning of fracture and luxation: Open repositioning of a simple fracture in small bones: By angular stable plate: Scapula

Your shoulder blade was broken and was surgically stabilized using devices.

The shoulder blade is a flat bone. It is in the upper part of the back, to the right and left of the spine. As part of the shoulder joint, the shoulder blade connects the upper body to the arm. The shoulder blade is involved in many movements in the shoulder area.

You had an operation to bring the broken parts of your shoulder blade back together and put them into their normal position. Your shoulder blade was then stabilized using one or more plates.
