Clavicle Fracture
Clavicle fractures are common injuries, representing 2.6-5% of all adult fractures. About 69% of clavicle fractures occur in the diaphyseal, and about half of them are displaced. Historically, the vast majority of clavicle fractures have been treated non-operatively. This is largely because of reported nonunion rates of less than 1% by Neer and Rowe . However, good outcomes of non–surgically treated fractures are not universal. Studies showed that nonunion rate for displaced diaphyseal clavicle fracture is 15% , and have found that those nonunion are particularly inclined to symptomatic, which require further treatment after initial intervention. Although many studies have outlined the poor outcomes after non-operative management
