Top left and right frames contain anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of right shoulder obtained on admission, respectively. Bottom left and right frames contain computed tomography images in axial and sagittal planes which demonstrate isolated coracoid process fracture, respectively. Please note that distal fragment of coracoid process is displaced in anteroinferior direction and measured distance between bone fragments at the most superior part of fracture line is 4.7 mm.

With respect to history of previous trauma, computed tomography (CT) images were obtained and revealed isolated coracoid mid-process fracture (Eyres type 2) with considerable anteroinferior displacement of the distal fragment (Figure 1).
Top left and right frames contain anteroposterior and lateral radiographs of right shoulder, obtained four weeks after admission, respectively. Bottom left and right frames contain computed tomography images in axial and sagittal planes which demonstrate significant callus formation, respectively.

The follow-up CT examination, obtained at the end of fourth week, confirmed significant callus formation (Figure 2).
Left and right frames contain computed tomography images, obtained 11 months after admission, in axial and sagittal planes, respectively. Coracoid process was intact with no signs of previous fracture.

Radiologic examination including CT, which proved complete osseous union with disappearance of coracoid fracture line, did not reveal any pathologic finding (Figure 3).
