SHOULDER SURGERY
A patient was brought to The POSH - Pondy Ortho Speciality Hospital, Pondicherry with a complex shoulder girdle injury involving multiple structures — clavicle fracture, scapula disruption, and complete acromioclavicular (AC) joint separation following high-energy trauma.
This constellation of injuries left the shoulder girdle completely unstable and painful. Without proper surgical fixation, permanent disability and chronic shoulder dysfunction were inevitable. Our team planned a comprehensive open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) strategy to address all structures in a single session.
"Three shoulder structures. One precision operation. Complete restoration of a complex girdle injury."
