Abstract
A case of a teenage athlete with a 4-year history of shoulder pain caused by glenoid fracture nonunion is presented. This individual had findings consistent with traumatic anterior shoulder instability as well as normal radiographs. Arthroscopy showed a nondisplaced glenoid fracture that was stabilized successfully through a deltopectoral approach.
