Single versus dual orthogonal plating for comminuted midshaft clavicle fractures: a biomechanics study

Abstract Background Dual orthogonal plating of clavicle fractures may provide greater stiffness and strength than unilateral plate constructs and allow the use of lower-profile plates. We aim to biomechanically compare three clavicle plating constructs in a comminuted clavicle fracture model. Method...
