background: previous anatomic and radiological studies have described the relationship of the clavicle to major neurovascular structures in healthy subjects. we were curious about this relationship in patients with a clavicle fracture and if it is different from non-fractured clavicles.   methods: we retrospectively identified all patients with a clavicle fracture between july 2001 and october ...

INTRODUCTION Current recommended treatment for middle-third clavicle fractures is limited to the use of ice, analgesics, a sling, and rest. Radiography for these fractures would be superfluous if physicians could accurately identify them by clinical examination alone. The primary purpose of this study was to determine whether emergency physicians can accurately diagnose clavicle fractures, and ...

BACKGROUND Fractures of the clavicle are common injuries. The complications have been well documented in the literature. CASE PRESENTATION Despite it close proximity to the sternocleidomastoid muscle and myositis ossificans recognised as a known complication of any fracture, the two have never previously been described in association secondary to a fracture of the clavicle. We present a case ...

Clavicle fractures are common in adults and children. Most commonly, these fractures occur within the middle third of the clavicle and exhibit some degree of displacement. Whereas many midshaft clavicle fractures can be treated nonsurgically, recent evidence suggests that more severe fracture types exhibit higher rates of symptomatic nonunion or malunion. Although the indications for surgical f...

A seven month old infant presented with excessive crying on handling following recovery from a generalized tonic clonic seizure. On examination he was noted to have swelling and tenderness over his left clavicle. There was no history of trauma. Chest radiograph disclosed undisplaced fracture of left clavicle at the junction of outer third and middle third. The fracture was attributed to the sei...

Stress fractures of the clavicle are rare. This is the report of one such fracture in a 10 year old female gymnast, who presented with a six week history of medial clavicular pain. Radiographs and a computed tomography scan showed an undisplaced fracture through the medial third of the clavicle extending inferiorly to the rhomboid fossa in the inferior aspect of the clavicle. Pathological fract...
