A biomechanical study of plate versus intramedullary devices for midshaft clavicle fixation

BACKGROUND: Non-operative management of midshaft clavicle fractures is standard; however, surgical management is increasing. The purpose of this study is to compare the biomechanical performance of plate versus intramedullary fixation in cyclic bending for matched pairs of cadaveric clavicles. We hy...
