Class B fractures involve the distal third of the bone and account for about 15% of clavicle fractures. What is a reported outcome of surgery when compared to nonoperative management at 1 year postoperatively? Low-energy fracture pattern. The classification system, broken into three categories focuses on the displacement and pattern of the fracture and the integrity of the coracoclavicular ligaments .

Intermediate Evaluation and Management. (OBQ07.275) The anatomic site of the fracture is typically described using the Allman classification, which divides the clavicle into thirds. Open injuries with small skin and soft tissue contusions. Diagnosis can be made with plain radiographs. (OBQ10.101) clavicle fractures account for 2.6-4% of all adult fractures, 75-80% of all clavicle fractures will occur in the, fall onto lateral aspect of shoulder (85%), junction of the outer and middle third is the thinnest part of the bone, posterosuperiorly by sternocleidomastoid muscle, inferomedially by pectoralis major and and weight of arm, open fractures usually result from medial fragment "buttonholing" through platysma, ipsilateral scapular fracture (floating shoulder), significantly distracted/widened fracture fragments, widened interval between scapula and spine, flat laterally, tubular centrally, and prismatic medially, provide superior/inferior stability to AC joint, clavicular head originates superiorly on medial third, stabilizes distal clavicle and assists with shoulder abduction, shortening of clavicle decreases lever arm of deltoid, originates from anterior lateral third clavicle, acromion, and scapular spine, originates from occiput and C-T spine spinous process, inserts on lateral posterosuperior third of clavicle, acromion, and scapular spine, clavicular head originates from anteroinferior surface of medial half of clavicle, inserts on crest of greater tubercle of humerus, lateral to bicipital groove, protects NV structures which pass deep to muscle and displace clavicle inferiorly, originates from 1st rib and costal cartilage, cutaneous nerves that run vertically over clavicle and supply superior chest wall, passes posterior and underneath clavicle near junction of medial and middle third, subclavian vein closest to clavicle and anterior to artery and plexus, middle third is weakest portion of clavicle, transitional of the bone in both curvature and in cross-sectional anatomy, only area not supported by ligamentous or muscular attachments, popping or cracking sound near shoulder after fall, acute onset of anterior shoulder pain or directly over clavicle, tender, swelling, crepitus and deformity over clavicle, assess subclavian vessels and brachial plexus, supine may underappeciate displacement with gravity eliminated, evaluate for other injuries (ie proximal humerus, scapula), compare shortening with contralateral side, inferior displacement of lateral fragment, AP clavicle - distance between the corresponding ends of the medial and lateral fragments, AP chest - direct comparison of length of clavicle to the contralateral side, shortening >2cm associated with decrease shoulder strength and endurance, displacement relative to width of clavicle (percent), >100% displacement is a risk factor for nonunion, assess fracture pattern for preop planning, comminution, shortening, articular extension, nonunion, axial, coronal and 3D reconstruction most useful, with contrast if concern for vascular injury, may present with dysphagia, stridor, asymmetric pulses, paresthesias due to compression of surrounding structures, serendipity view or CT best demonstrate displacement, pain and prominence more lateral over AC joint, zanca or axillary views shows displaced distal clavicle relative to acromion, < 1cm displacement of the superior shoulder suspensory complex, elevate and extend shoulder to bring distal fragment to the proximal fragment, figure-of-8 associated with more pain, shortening, and lower compliance than sling, no difference in functional or cosmetic outcomes between sling and figure-of-eight braces, floating shoulder (clavicle and scapular neck fracture), brachial plexus injury (questionable because 66% have spontaneous return), open reduction internal fixation with plate and screws, operative fixation has higher union rate (>94%), similar or better functional outcomes than nonoperative, immobilize using sling or figure-of-eight brace, higher nonunion rate compared to operative management, decreased shoulder strength and endurance, displaced midshaft clavicle fractures healed with > 2cm of shortening, increased plate strength with inferior bone comminution, low rate of symptomatic hardware removal (0-3.7%), biomechanically equivalent or superior to single 3.5mm plate, limited contact, pre-controured, 3.5mm dynamic compression plate, 2.0mm, 2.4mm and 2.7mm plates can be used and combined for dual plating, improved results with ORIF for clavicle fractures with > 2cm shortening and > 100% displacement, improved functional outcomes/less pain with overhead activity, decreased symptomatic nonunion and malunion rate, increased shoulder strength and endurance, increased risk of need for future procedures, sling for 7-10 days followed by active motion, strengthening at ~6 weeks when pain-free motion and radiographic evidence of union, full activity including sports at ~3 months, goal size of intramedullary nail is 30-40% of midshaft diameter, avoids supraclavicular nerves that are commonly injured with plating, hardware migration, implant irritation, secondary procedures, typically requires hardware removal at 6 months, motion at fracture site, no callus on x-ray, DASH <40, pain and increased fatigue with overhead activities, difficulty with shoulder straps and backpacks, clavicle osteotomy with bone grafting, if symptomatic, superior plates associated with increased irritation, superior plates associated with increased risk of subclavian artery or vein penetration, 83% incidence of numbness noted at 2 weeks postop, can improve over time with ~50% having persistent numbness at 1 year, 4% in surgical group develop adhesive capsulitis requiring surgical intervention, Open treatment of clavicular fracture, includes internal fixation, when performed, Adult Knee Trauma Radiographic Evaluation, Proximal Humerus Fracture Nonunion and Malunion, Distal Radial Ulnar Joint (DRUJ) Injuries. junction of the outer and middle third is the thinnest part of the bone. hbbd```b``"@$eg+@$d&`]"W@$a09}L:H R# TECHNIQUE STEPS Preoperative Patient Care.

DH^ RDJ4Hay0lb ./#s,HAMg d 974 0 obj <> endobj Treatment is immobilization or surgery, depending on the displacement and stability of the distal clavicle, as determined by whether coracoclavicular (CC) ligaments (trapezoid and conoid) are intact. clavicle fractures account for 2.6-4% of all adult fractures Demographics often seen in young, active patients most common in males < 30 years old Location 75-80% of all clavicle fractures will occur in the middle third segment Etiology Pathophysiology mechanism of injury fall onto lateral aspect of shoulder (85%) direct impact to clavicle Radial Head Fractures are common intra-articular elbow fractures that can be associated with an episode of elbow instability, a mechanical block to elbow motion, an injury to the distal radioulnar joint and/or to the interosseous membrane (Essex-Lopresti). Treatment is generally nonoperative management with a sling. A 32-year-old female sustained a closed clavicle fracture after a fall as shown in Figures A and B. These occur lateral to a vertical line drawn upward from the center of the cora-coid process. Treatment is nonoperative or operative based on patient activity and demands, along with degree of displacement, shortening, and comminution. o ,(8Mx 3pN.WV/ j _ 1; Clavicle Shaft Fracture ORIF.
