Scapular fractures are mainly caused by high-energy trauma and are often associated with major skeletal and visceral injuries. Their frequency is low and this justifies a relative scarcity of evidence in the literature. Historically, the treatment of choice has been conservative, but since the 1990s, the indications for surgical treatment have increased, especially because of the poor functional results obtained in some types of fracture.
