Result: Neer classification by fracture group: Group III accounted for 20.4%, Group IV for 69.4%, Group V for 4.1% and Group VI for 6.1%. Functional evaluation of the shoulder at final follow-up was done using Neer Shoulder Score. The mean follow-up period was 18 months. The results were good in 29 patients (59.2%), fair in 19 patients (38.8%), average in 1 patient (2%), and no patients had poor results.
