  • Title: [Acute osteomyelitis of the clavicle in the newborn infant: a case report].
    Author: Allagui M, Bellaaj Z, Zrig M, Abid A, Koubaa M.
    Journal: Arch Pediatr; 2014 Feb; 21(2):211-3. PubMed ID: 24290180.
    Abstract:
    Acute osteomyelitis of the clavicle accounts for less than 3% of osteomyelitis cases, with its usual location in the middle third. It may be hematogenous, due to contiguity, or secondary to catheterization of the subclavian vein or neck surgery. The diagnosis is often delayed, and clinical symptoms may simulate obstetric brachial plexus palsy in young children. We report a new case of osteomyelitis of the clavicle in a 30-day-old newborn.
