Abstract:Introduction
Management of displaced fractures of the lateral end clavicle has always challenged orthopaedic surgeons, due to a high non-union rate, and difficulty achieving stable fixation allowing early mobilisation. Different methods of fixation have been utilised to provide stability and improve healing and functional outcomes. In this series, we evaluate the results of internal fixation using dorsal distal radius locking plates and coracoid suture anchors.
