Abstract
Objective: To evaluate the clinical and radiographic results of the surgical treatment of fractures of the middle third of the clavicle, using the technique of minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) with locking.
Methods: Prospective case series, evaluating displaced fractures of the middle third of the clavicle submitted to MIPO with locking, with procedures performed by a single surgeon. Patients were evaluated at 12 months using the University of Los Angeles (UCLA) scale and anteroposterior radiographs of the clavicles with 45° cranial and caudal inclination, as well as reporting complications.
Results: In total, 15 patients were evaluated. The median of surgical time was 50 minutes (IQR 35). The UCLA scale had a median of 35 (IQR 2) at 12 months. All patients presented fracture healing. Minor complications occurred in three cases (20%), with two (13.3%) evolving with plate prominence and one (6.7%) with local paresthesia, while major complications occurred in only one case (6.7%), with suture dehiscence requiring surgical re-approach.
Conclusion: MIPO with locking is a viable option for the treatment of displaced fractures of the middle third of the clavicle, with excellent results according to the UCLA scale, fracture healing in all cases, and a low rate of complications. Level of Evidence IV, Case Series.
