Abstract: Background: The study was conducted to assess the functional outcome of hook plate for displaced lateral end clavicle fractures using Constant Murley score.
Materials and Methods: This study include total of 15 cases with displaced lateral end clavicle fractures satisfying the inclusion criteria treated with hook plate. Patients were followed up at 1st month, 2nd month and 6th month, the functional outcome was assessed using Constant Murley score and the radiological outcome was also assessed
Results: In our study, 15 cases treated with hook plate 26.7% of patients had excellent outcome and 73.3% had good outcome and postoperative shoulder impingement seen in 13% of patients
Conclusion: Hook plate has a good functional outcome for lateral end clavicle fractures. Hook plate is an absolute indication for commenuted lateral end clavicle fractures. Hook plate has implant-related complications, hence implant removal should be advised.
