Impingement syndrome is one of the most common pain disorders of the shoulder. The causes are numerous and most frequently it is due to structural alterations of coracoacromial arch; however, in in rare cases it may be caused by malunion of distal clavicle fractures. We report our experience in the case of a young tennis player with shoulder impingement after a conservative management of distal clavicle fracture.

Abstract

Impingement syndrome is one of the most common pain disorders of the shoulder. The causes are numerous and most frequently it is due to structural alterations of coracoacromial arch; however, in in rare cases it may be caused by malunion of distal clavicle fractures. We report our experience in the case of a young tennis player with shoulder impingement after a conservative management of distal clavicle fracture.
