Introduction: Out of all fractures in adult, clavicle accounts 3-5%. These are usually managed conservatively but with changing trends the surgical management (plating) has been put into practice widely. TENS a recent alternative new technique fixation. The aim this study was to investigate effectiveness minimally invasive method- for displaced midshaft non comminuted fractures. Materials and Methods: included total 22 patients fracture. There were 16 males 6 females. mean age 31.9 years. Most surgeries done within 24 48 hrs. Patients followed 9 months. union assessed Clinico-Radiologically. Results: Average follow up 100% achieved. Clinical occurred 3-6 weeks, while radiographic achieved 5-8 weeks. no postoperative infection study. Conclusion: is safe invasive, needs lesser operative time showed faster functional recovery greater patient satisfaction cosmosis.
