Glenoid fractures are uncommon. Here we describe three such cases that were treated surgically. All of the patients were male; one had been injured in a fall, and the other two had additional clavicle fractures resulting from traffic accidents. All of the cases were classified as Ideberg Type V. The surgery was performed with the patients in the lateral decubitus position. In two cases the shoulder was abducted and a posterior approach with arthroscopic assistance was employed. Early rehabilitation was started after surgery, and shoulder function recovered quickly in all cases. Good results were obtained in the short term. A posterior approach with the shoulder abducted and using arthroscopic assistance is very useful for osteosynthesis of glenoid fractures.
