A Comparative Study Of Surgical And Functional Outcomes In Patients Treated With Intramedullary Nailing And Plating For Mid-Shaft Clavicular Fractures

Traditionally, mid-shaft clavicular fractures were treated non-operatively; however, they have been associated with higher non-union rates and poor functional outcomes in certain types of fractures. We aimed to objectively compare the surgical outcomes in patients with mid-shaft clavicular fracture treated either with nailing or plating and assess their functional outcomes over a follow up period of one year.
