Intraosseous Stab Wound of Scapula: A Case Report

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.

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.
