Difficulty in diagnosing the pathological nature of an acute fracture of the clavicle: A case report
Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 06/30/09
Malik SS et al. - The authors describe a patient who presented with a medial clavicular fracture after a simple fall but the fracture was diagnosed as pathological in retrospect four months after the initial presentation. The authors would like to emphasise that the medial clavicle is the most frequent site of pathological fractures of the clavicle, and the possibility of an underlying pathological condition should be considered whenever a patient with a medial clavicular fracture is encountered.
