 Abstract
- PURPOSE
To review clinical and radiological results after open reduction and internal fixation with T plate for unstable distal clavicle fractures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
From July. 1999 to December 2002, nine patients with distal clavicle Neer type II fractures were treated by open reduction and internal fixation with T plate. The bony union was confirmed by plain radiography. The clinical results were analyzed according to the classification by Kona et al.
RESULTS
Average time to fracture union was 8 weeks in all cases. The functional results were as follows: excellent in 7 cases and good in 2 cases. Screw loosening occurred in one case, but bony union was achieved.
CONCLUSION
We recommend T plate fixation as another treatment method for unstable distal clavicle fractures.
