Isolated fracture of the greater tuberosity: Prediction of superior and posterior fracture displacement on plain radiographs

Objectives and questions: Isolated fractures of the greater tuberosity represent up to 20% of all proximal humeral fractures. Conservative and surgical treatment strategies are reported. Fracture displacement on radiographs is a key factor in treatment decisions, but the accuracy of measurement [for full text, please go to the a.m. URL]
