INTRODUCTION AND IMPORTANCE: Surgical treatment for clavicle injuries is indicated for displaced and shortened fractures. Osteosyntheses with plate fixation may present with complications in 6.3% to 8.5% of patients. Peri-implant clavicle fractures (PIF) are rare, and we have not found any previous cases in our literature search.
CASE PRESENTATION: A 25-year-old male with previously (six years earlier) surgically treated clavicle fracture presented with a peri-implant clavicle fracture requiring surgical treatment. The management involved overlaying an implant to fix the lateral clavicle fracture without removing the previous plate. Complete bone healing was observed without any further complication.
CLINICAL DISCUSSION: Despite the low rate of implant failure in clavicle fractures, this complication occurs mainly in elderly patients with poor bone quality. No PIF have been described in the literature prior to this. This case report demonstrates a young patient with good bone quality and previous fracture fixation presenting with PIF which has now shown complete bone healing.
CONCLUSION: In this case, overlying an additional plate on the lateral clavicle portion without removing the previous plate increased the stability of the fracture. It demonstrates the value of overlaying plate osteosyntheses for patients with clavicle PIF.
