Thoracic penetration following mid-shaft clavicular fracture.
We describe a patient who sustained a widely displaced, high-energy, mid-shaft clavicular fracture in association with brachial plexus damage. The distal fragment was subsequently found to have penetrated the thoracic cavity. We describe the treatment of this rare injury with a successful outcome.
متن کاملMeta-analysis of differences in Constant-Murley scores for three mid-shaft clavicular fracture treatments
There is no consensus on the optimal treatment for mid-shaft clavicular fracture. We conducted a meta-analysis to compare the effectiveness of non-operative treatment, plate fixation, and intramedullary pin fixation in terms of the Constant-Murley Score (CMS) for treatment of mid-shaft clavicular fracture. Comprehensive search of the Embase, Cochrane Library and PubMed was conducted to retrieve...
متن کاملDisplaced mid-shaft clavicular fractures: is conservative treatment still preferred?
BACKGROUND A clavicular fracture accounts for 2.6%-5% of adult fractures. Fractures in the middle-third (OTA 15-B) represent 69%-82% of all clavicular fractures. There is no consensus among orthopedic surgeons regarding treatment for these fractures: many support conservative treatment even for displaced middle-third clavicular fractures, while others choose operative treatment. OBJECTIVES To...
متن کاملEffectiveness of low profile pre contoured clavicular plate in mid shaft clavicular fractures in young patients
Introduction: Risk of Nonunion, residual shoulder disability and symptomatic malunion are higher in conservative treatment of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures which are reportedly decreased by operative method but plating these fractu profile anatomically precontoured plates may reduce the rates of plate prominence and hardware removal. Objective: To assess the rate of plate prominence, ra...
متن کاملRadiography of Clavicle Fractures—A Review of the Literature
Introduction: Fractures of the clavicle are common and make up 5% 10% of all fractures. Treatment options in part depend on the location of the fracture along the bone and degree of displacement. These two parameters are best determined by good quality, standardized radiographs of the clavicle. We reviewed the literature to determine the optimal radiographs of clavicle fractures and their influ...
