Long-term Functional Outcomes of Nonoperatively Treated Highly Displaced Scapular Body and Neck Fractures.

abstract：:Excessive wear debris, deep infection, periprosthetic fracture, and other causes can lead to bone loss associated with total joint replacements. When performing revisions, surgeons are often preoccupied by the failed implant and the method of replacement, and neglect an opportunity to replenish lost bone. Thus, when f...
