[From the sports medicine practice: experiences with lateral clavicular resection].
Posttraumatic arthroses of the clavicle in sportsmen are relatively frequent causes of persistent and refractory pain. If the broad palette of conservative treatment possibilities is exhausted, an effective alternative would be the surgical resection of the lateral pole of the clavicle. This will not only ensure a large measure of freedom from pain but will also fully restore the patients ability to again become an active participant in sport.
