Treatment of medial clavicle fractures . A case report and review of the literature.
Abstract
Medial clavicle fractures are seen rarely and can be associated with injuries to the adjacent vital structures. Herein, we described a 15-year-old boy who had a preexisting ventriculoperitoneal shunt and a displaced medial clavicle fracture. We performed a successful surgical treatment using a distal radius locking plate. We discussed the mechanism of injury and treatment options with literature review.
