Abstract: Fracture of the clavicle is one of the very common skeletal injury constituting around 5-10% of all bony injuries in adults and around 80% of these occurring in the midshaft [3-5]. Despite its high incidence the best treatment modality is still unclear. We prospectively compared the outcomes in terms of rate of radiological union and functional outcome in treatment of midshaft clavicle fractures by conservative (CONS) or operative which had two sub-groups that is treated by plating (PLATE group) or by titanium elastic nail (TENS group).
