[Surgical treatment of lateral clavicular fracture with the "clavicular hooked plate"].
We know different surgical techniques for the treatment of lateral clavicle fractures (type 2 of the Neer-classification). Often an exercise stable osteosynthesis and early functional aftercare can be realized only with a jointconnecting transfixation (acromioclavicular joint). With a new osteosynthesis implant it is possible to solve the problems of this fracture with a save and relatively simple operation. The suggested implant guarantees an exercise-stable osteosynthesis that allows immediate functional aftercare. With this technique we can reduce the complication rate and reach full working capacity earlier. Within an observation period of about five years we used this implant on 21 patients and the clinical and radiological follow-up shows good to very good results in the medium and long-terms.
