[Clavicular fractures in pediatric traumatology].
Der Unfallchirurg 2011 April
Clavicle fractures are most common in children. Due to the thick periosteum that provides appositional bone proliferation on the one hand and a high potential of the medial physis for longitudinal growth on the other hand the fractures have an enormous healing potential. Both factors are also responsible for good fracture remodeling. In adolescents, the periosteal tube gets thinner and fracture types correspond to fractures in adults. Most fractures heal with good results after conservative treatment. In this article clavicle fractures in children and adolescents and options for therapy including the rare surgical treatment depending on different fracture localizations and morphologies are discussed.
