Fracture of the coracoid process is uncommon, and most previous studies have reported this fracture occurring in association with direct trauma to the shoulder or transmission of force from the upper arm or elbow (Ada and Miller 1991, Benton and Nelson 1971, Eyres et al. 1995). We present a case in which epiphyseal fracture occurred at the origin of the conjoined tendon following excessive muscle contraction. We believe this represents the first description of such a method of injury.
喙突骨折并不常见,以往大多数研究报告称,这种骨折是由肩部直接外伤或来自上臂或肘部的力传导所致(Ada和Miller,1991年;Benton和Nelson,1971年;Eyres等,1995年)。我们报告一例因肌肉过度收缩导致联合肌腱起点处骨骺骨折的病例。我们认为这是对这种损伤方式的首次描述。
