Résumé :	Scapular fractures are rare injuries and usually occur due to high energy trauma. Displaced Intra articular fractures usu-ally require operative treatment and yields better outcomes as compared to conservative management. To assess the functional and radiological outcomes of displaced intra-articular scapular fractures managed with open re-duction and internal fixation. 12 patients were retrospectively reviewed and included in the study. Post-operative functional outcomes were assessed using mean quick DASH (Disability of arm, hand and shoulder) score while radiological outcomes were analyzed as percentage of implant cut-through, mal-union, non-union or infection. The mean follow up was 14 months. Mean age was 40 years. The mean quick DASH score was 7.19 +/- 4.86. All of the pa-tients had successful clinical and radiological healing and pain-free movements. Open reduction and internal fixation in displaced intra-articular scapular-fractures yields excellent and promising out-comes.
