Fracture of the Shoulder Socket (Glenoid Fracture)
Fracture of the Shoulder Socket (Glenoid Fracture)
This is a fracture of a part of the shoulder blade called the "glenoid." This is the socket that holds the head of the humerus (the bone of the upper arm). A glenoid fracture can allow the head of the humerus to slip out of the socket.
