Minimally invasive fixation with TEN is a safe method and can be performed with minor complications. This method of fixation of displaced midclaviclular fractures should result in a good cosmetic appearance and satisfactory stabilization of displaced midclavicular fractures without comminution.

Even though a previous study has reported that teriparatide healed stress fractures in a rat model and even with the time course of fracture healing in our patient, we are still not certain that teriparatide played a primary role in the positive response to therapy. Vitamin D therapy, calcium, and alendronate discontinuation may have played secondary roles. This case report may serve to introduce a direction for future research into the pharmacological treatment of atypical femoral fractures. Surgical treatment of incomplete atypical femoral fractures may be a safer method.
