Intraosseous Stab Wound of Scapula: A Case Report

2019 
Background: Intraosseous stab wounds are extremely rare. Only a few cases have been reported in the upper extremity.Case Report: In this report, we presented a case of stab wound to the right shoulder with penetration to the scapula. The patient was successfully managed in a team-based approach. During a 12-month follow-up, he showed no abnormality in passive and active movements or physical examination.Conclusion: Relying on the physical examinations and paraclinical studies may be an appropriate substitution for exploration surgery when possible iatrogenic injuries may affect the patient's quality of life.
