Scapular defects: a normal variation
OS Cigtay
and
VJ Mascatello
Sharply marginated defects were observed in the scapulae of five patients. In all cases the defects were benigh in appearance and unrelated to symptoms. These patients have been observed up to 5 years without change in the radiographic appearance. Recognition of the benign nature of these defects is important to avoid confusion with pathologic conditions.
