A surgical technique for minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis of clavicular midshaft fractures.

This study describes a minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis technique to treat acute displaced clavicular midshaft fractures using anterior-inferior plating. The technique assesses the fracture via a medial window and a lateral window without opening the fracture area itself. A 3.

Minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis using anterior-inferior plating of clavicular midshaft fractures.

Introduction: This study evaluated the clinical and radiological outcomes of acute displaced clavicular midshaft fractures treated with minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO).

Materials And Methods: Fifteen patients with acute displaced clavicular midshaft fractures underwent MIPO. A locking reconstruction plate was applied on the anterior aspect of the clavicle through two small incisions.
