Fractures of the scapula are rare. The relative rarity of the more severely displaced injuries makes internal fixation of scapula fractures technically challenging. Anatomic constraints, particularly the scapula’s limited osseous anatomy, curved posterior surface and unique dimensions have contributed to the complexity of traditional operative treatment methods. The AMAZONTM Scapula Locking Plates 3.5 mm System offers indication-specific titanium plates that can address challenging fractures of the scapula, including the glenoid, medial and lateral border, acromion, and scapular spine. The pre-contoured plates minimize the need for bending while acting as a template for optimal implant placement and guiding screw fixation to osseous regions.
