Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Patients with unilateral clavicular fractures. Patients with displaced clavicular shaft fracture. Patients treated operatively with the plate osteosynthesis technique using either the anteroinferior or superior plating method.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Patients with clavicular fracture in the previously injured clavicle Interval between fracture and surgery more than three weeks Patients with associated scapular fracture (floating shoulder), associated neurovascular injury, open or impending fracture, and pathological fractures

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the functional outcomes using Constant score,the University of California Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder score and the Oxford shoulder score between anterior inferior and superior plating methods in plate osteosynthesis for treating acute displaced clavicular shaft fractures. To compare the radiographic outcomes between anterior inferior and superior plating methods in plate osteosynthesis for treating acute displaced clavicular shaft fractures. Timepoint: immediate post operative , 1 month ,3 month , 6 month

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
To compare the complication between anterior inferior and superior plating methods in plate osteosynthesis for treating acute displaced clavicular shaft fractures.Timepoint: To compare the complication rates via routine examination and x ray at 1,3,6 months
