In this meta-analysis, we pooled studies to compare plating with intramedullary fixation for this injury. Methods: The electronic databases MEDLINE, EMABSE, BIOSIS and Google scholar were searched. RCTs and cohort studies evaluating plating versus intramedullary fixation for displaced mi...
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 کاملDisplaced Mid-Shaft Clavicle Fractures: A Subset For Surgical Treatment
ABSTRACT Recent studies have shown a high prevalence of symptomatic malunion and nonunion after nonoperative treatment of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures. We sought to study the result of surgical treatment of displaced mid-shaft fracture of clavicle.
