Abstract:

Objective To improve the existing clavicular plate, and to provide the anatomical basis for clinical treatment of clavicular fracture. Methods  The relevant data were collected and analyzed form 115 clavicular specimens and radiographic images of 115 cases of clavicular fractures; the compatibility of the two commercially available steel plates for clavicular fractures with the clavicular specimens were carried out, respectively. Results In 115 clavicles, type I, II, and III clavicle accounted, respectively, for 45.2%, 45.2% and 9.6%; in imaging data of 115 cases of clavicle fracture, fractures in the three types of the clavicle accounted for 14.8%, 57.4% and 27.8%, respectively. Fracture of the clavicular shaft is the most common one, accounting for 73.9%; the kappa values of compatibility of the modified steel plate and the conventional plates with the three types of the clavicle was 0.38 and 0.51, respectively. Conclusion The modified steel for clavicular fracture has obvious improvement in compatibility compared with the conventional ones. Our study has certain guiding significance for the clinical application.
