Treatment of Traumatic Posterior Dislocation of the Sternoclavicular Joint: A Case Report: Dong Hee Kim, Do Hoon Kim, Seok Kwon Kang, Eui Chul Lee; J Korean Fract Soc 2013;26(1):56-59. Published online January 31, 2013; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2013.26.1.56

Compared with acromioclavicular dislocation, dislocation of the clavicle at its sternal end is uncommon and accounts for 3% of all injuries to the shoulder girdle. Furthermore, the posterior dislocation of the sternoclavicular joint is relatively a rare injury compared to the other types of sternoclavicular dislocation. We report this case since we have experience with similar cases of traumatic posterior dislocation at the sternoclavicular joint, which were successfully treated with x-ray guided reduction.

Abstract PDF: Kirschner wire fixation in sternoclavicular dislocation poses a considerable risk of serious early or late complications. We report a case of Kirschner wire penetration into the innominate vein and aorta, which caused aortovenous fistula and congestive heart failure.
