Evaluation Of Clinico-Radiological Parameters In Operated Patients Of Displaced Diaphyseal Fractures Of Clavicle
Journal Title: International Journal of Orthopaedics Traumatology & Surgical Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 2, Issue 0
Abstract
The clavicular fracture were treated surgically in 25 patients of mid third clavicular fracture were fixed with plate and screws between August 2012 to August 2013 at Indore. The minimum follow up was 3 months and maximum was 1year. Patients above 16 years were included in this study and the patient age ranged from 19 to 50 years. Middle third clavicle fractures are common between 20 to 30 years in this study. Males are more commonly affected 4% of the patient had associated injuries like bilateral pubic rami fracture that was treated conservatively. All patients were operated under regional anesthesia with plate and screws for middle third clavicular fractures. Reconstruction locking plates were used in 15 patients and pre contour plates in 10 patients. All patients were immobilized in an arm pouch for 4 weeks. Average duration of stay in the hospital was 12 days. All the patients were mobilized at the end of 2nd week with the sling. The duration of union in patients with middle third clavicle fractures range from 8-12 weeks (average 10.16 weeks) in 25 patients. The functional outcome assessment according to Constant and Murley score for middle third clavicle fracture treated by plate and screws showed excellent functional outcome in 23 patients (92%) and good functional outcome in 2 patients (8%).
