Title: Clavicular reconstruction with free fibula flap: a report of four cases and review of the literature. Author: Abarca J, Valle P, Valenti P. Journal: Injury; 2013 Mar; 44(3):283-7. PubMed ID: 23352678. Abstract: Midclavicular fracture is one of the most common injuries of the skeleton, representing 3-5% of all fractures and 45% of all shoulder injuries. The recurrent failure of clavicular fracture treatment, whether conservative or surgical, could give rise to multiple surgeries, ultimately leading to a painful nonunion. The aim of the article is to address the indications, surgical technique and results of clavicular reconstruction using vascularised fibular flaps based on 4 cases reports.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
