RESUMO
Neer's type II lateral end clavicle fracture is inherently unstable due to coraco-clavicular ligament disruption. Timely surgery can avoid complications of conservative management. Our study is based on open reduction and fixation with double endobutton and fibre tape in 12 patients. Radiological and functional outcome were assessed using Quick DASH score and SPADI score at regular interval. All the fractures achieved both clinical and radiological union. No intra-operative or post-operative complication was noted. Functional out come and range of motion at 1-year follow-up was quite satisfactory. Open reduction and fixation with double endobutton and fibre tape for lateral end clavicle fracture is a quite rewarding surgery with less steep learning curve, economical and enough stable fixations leading to union and good functional outcome without need of re-surgery for implant removal.
