There were 18 men and 5 women with the average age of 39 years (range, 24 to 61 years). Fourteen fractures were isolated and 9 were related to acute anterior instability episode. The average displacement of the fracture was 2.3 mm (range, 0 to 4 mm) as shown on anteroposterior view plain radiographs.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      At the time of arthroscopy, all patients had partial\u2010thickness rotator cuff tears on the articular surface. The cuff tears were located on the tuberosity fracture area and were an Ellman grade I to II in depth. After arthroscopic debridement or repair of the tear, depending on the condition of the tear itself, as well as subacromial decompression, the UCLA score results were good to excellent in 20 and fair in 3 patients. Nineteen of the patients had returned to the previous level of activities.
