Article Synopsis
- The study evaluated the effectiveness of surgical vs. non-surgical treatments for midshaft clavicle fractures in adolescents over a five-year period, involving 416 patients with a focus on those aged 10 to 18.
- Both groups had comparable outcomes in terms of patient-reported outcomes (PROs) after two years, suggesting similar effectiveness between surgical and non-surgical options.
- The findings revealed no significant differences in recovery scores, despite surgical patients being older and having more severe fractures, ultimately challenging the initial hypothesis that surgery would lead to better results.
