A comparative study of plate fixation versus titanium elastic nail in treatment of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures

Abstract: Background: In the last few decades, there has been an increasing trend towards operative treatment for displaced midshaft clavicular fractures. These fractures are managed by plate fixation and titanium elastic nailing system, but the optimal fixation method for these types of fractures remains a topic of debate. The aim of this study is to compare functional outcome of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures treated with locking compression plate and titanium elastic nail system and its associated complication… Show more

“…Therefore, type A and B fractures can successfully be treated with plate or TEN fixation, but type C fractures should be treated with plate fixation". Itagi and Pattanshetty (2021) [21] randomized "a total of 40 patients with displaced midshaft clavicle fractures to two groups (20 in plate "Group A" and 20 in titanium elastic system group). Clinical and radiological assessments were performed at the 6th week, 3rd and 6th month postoperatively.…”
