Can 3D-printing avoid discomfort-related implant removal in midshaft clavicle fractures? A four-year follow-up

INTRODUCTION: Due to the variation in shape and curvature of the clavicle, plates often have to be adjusted during surgery to acquire a good fit. Poorly fitted plates can cause discomfort, eventually requiring implant removal. 3D-printed replicas of the fractured clavicle can assist in planning of t...
