The first 100 patients treated with a new anatomical pre-contoured locking plate for clavicular midshaft fractures.

Background: Pre-contoured locking plates were recently introduced in the management of clavicular midshaft fractures. These plates may offer advantages such as no necessity for intraoperative bending and reduced plate irritation. The purpose of this study was to review the clinical and radiographical outcome of the first 100 patients treated with a new anatomical pre-contoured locking plate.
