Background
- Newborn
- Usually result from birth injury
- Fracture in <2yo should raise possibility of abuse
Evaluation
- Newborn
- Upper extremity palsy (brachial plexus injury)
- "Pseudoparalysis" secondary to pain
- Callous at clavicle during first 2-3wk of life
- Middle Third fracture
- Most common
- Medial clavicle fracture
- Rare
- If displaced anterior: tenderness and palpable protrusion of distal end
- If displaced posterior: compression of trachea/esophagus possible
- Distal clavicle fracture
- Rare
- Due to direct trauma
Differential Diagnosis
Thoracic Trauma
- Airway/Pulmonary
- Cardiac/Vascular
- Musculoskeletal
- Other
Evaluation
- CXR
Management
- Neonatal
- No treatment necessary
- Middle Third
- Arm sling x 3-4wk
- Adequate even for displaced and overlapping fracture
- Arm sling x 3-4wk
- Medial
- Anterior displacement: ORIF
- Posterior displacement: emergent reduction by ortho or trauma
- Distal
- Minimal displacement: sling
- Significant displacement: ORIF
Disposition
- Neonatal
- Discharge home
- Middle third
- Routine follow up with primary care provider
- Medial
- Ortho consult
- Distal
- Depends on degree of displacement (routine follow up vs consult)
