Abstract

We report a case of coracoid process fracture with clavicle fracture. A 32-year-old-male was injured and suffered open clavicle fracture by a direct blow. He also suffered a coracoid process fracture. Initially a correct diagnosis could not be made. When contusions around the shoulder are seen, the possibility of a coracoid process fracture should always be kept in mind.
