case_images: In October 2013, a RTSA procedure was completed (Biomet Comprehensive Reverse Shoulder prosthesis (Biomet Inc, Warsaw, Indiana, USA) with a 6-mm mini cemented stem, 28-mm glenoid baseplate, 36-mm standard glenosphere (Versa-Dial between position B and C providing a 2 mm inferior offset) and a standard 44-mm humeral tray with a 36-mm polyethylene humeral cup was implanted (Figure 2).

case_images: Repeat radiographs demonstrated an isolated mid-to-distal one-third clavicle shaft fracture without any evidence of prosthetic loosening or change in position of her RTSA implants (Figure 3).

case_images: On serial reassessments, the fracture failed to demonstrate healing on standard clinical and radiographic examinations and she subsequently developed a chronic symptomatic non-union of her right clavicle fracture (Figure 4).
case_images: Superior scapular tilt with an increase in upward rotation angle of the scapula. A, One week post fall with scapular tilt 16.6 degrees. B, One-month post fall with scapular tilt 24.8 degrees. C, Post clavicle ORIF with scapular tilt 19.3 degrees. Scapular measurements were taken according to Endo et al.
  
   using a shoulder AP radiograph. Two landmarks were used create the scapular spine line and included 1) the interface between the upper border of the scapular spine and the acromio-clavicular joint and 2) the most medial aspect scapular spine. The angle between the scapular spine line and the horizontal (reference line that is parallel to the floor) represented the upward rotation angle.

case_images: fig5-24715492211020694
case_images: The scapula had a notable increase in superior tilt, as demonstrated with increasing upward rotation angle with scapular measurements taken according to Endo et al.   and shoulder AP radiographs (Figure 5), in addition to scapular notching and exposure of the inferior base plate screw compared to her initial postoperative imaging (Figure 6).

case_images: There was no further progression of her superior scapular tilt or scapular notching (Figure 8).
