We have reviewed 12 fractures of the coracoid process. In two of these patients the fracture extended into the body of the scapula and resulted in displacement of the glenoid. In some cases, there were associated acromioclavicular and glenohumeral dislocations or fractures of the clavicle and the acromion. Two patients required internal fixation to restore congruence of the glenoid; the others were treated conservatively with success. We present a new classification of coracoid fractures which helps in their management.

We reviewed the prevalence of avascular necrosis (AVN) in a series of patients with sickle cell disease, using radiography and magnetic resonance imaging. We found AVN of at least one hip in 11 of 27 patients (41%). This is a significantly greater prevalence than reported. MRI was not as helpful in patients with sickle cell disease as it is in patients with AVN from other causes; it detected no more cases than radiography.
