Coracoid impingement syndrome results from abnormal contact between the anterosuperior humerus and the coracoacromial arch. The coracoid impingement may occur from traumatic, idiopathic, or iatrogenic causes. Traumatic causes of coracoid impingement include fractures of scapular neck, coracoid process or lesser tuberosity. Coracoid impingement due to lesser tuberosity malunion is a rare disease and most of them were treated by open procedures. The authors present a case of coracoid impingement caused by malunion after isolated lesser tuberosity fracture which was treated by arthroscopic coracoplasty with percutaneous screw fixation.

The Buford complex is unusual variant of the glenohumeral joint. This complex is distinguished by a cord-like middle glenohumeral ligament that oriented directly form the superior labrum at the base of the biceps tendon and crosses the subscapularis tendon to insert on the humerus. There is no anterior-superior labral tissue present between this attachment and the mid-glenoid notch. This anatomical variation may lead the surgeon to confuse this complex with a sublabral hole, pathologic labral detachment, Bankart lesion or SLAP lesion. We report a case of Buford complex which was found incidentally during the operation of impingement syndrome with stiffness and treated with subacromial decompression only.
