Case Report
Most Common Clavicle Fractures and Should They Be Operated On? - A case report
Clavicle fractures account for up to 4% of all adult fractures and are often the result of severe trauma in young individuals. At the Clinical Hospital Center Zemun, there have been just under 15 cases of these fractures treated surgically over the past 10 years (with the first author performing 6 of these surgeries). The relatively small number of operated patients is due to the belief that only a clavicle that does not heal on its own requires surgery. New osteosynthetic materials provide better treatment outcomes but cannot compensate for poor surgical technique, implant failure, incorrect indications, and/or choice of method, leading to treatment failure. We present an interesting case of a 45-year-old female patient who underwent surgical treatment for a clavicle fracture with multiple complications.
