Abstract
The authors describe arthroscopic reduction and percutaneous fixation of greater tuberosity fractures of the humerus with displacement of more than 0.5 cm. Arthroscopy for reduction and fixation of this fracture presents the same difficulties and advantages as arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tears.
