Abstract

The optimal treatment of acute, displaced midshaft clavicle fractures is controversial. Despite lack of compelling evidence towards superior results after primary surgery, it seems that more and more patients are treated surgically. The aim of this study was to investigate which treatment modality should be preferred in this population according to current literature.
