Abstract
PDF - Pins and wires are still used frequently in surgeries of the shoulder; however, these can cause breakage or migration to surrounding tissues, leading to complications. We report on case of a patient with a neck mass who had a past history of pulmonary tuberculosis and distal clavicle fracture with internally fixated state. She was misdiagnosed as tuberculous cervical lymphadenopathy and treated for approximately one year, but was finally revealed as granulation tissue around the internally fixated distal clavicle fracture site, thus, mass excision and metal removal was performed. This case shows the importance of a proper selection device, internal fixation technique, duration, and close follow-up after the operation.
