Abstract
Fractures of the clavicle are frequently encountered in trauma practice. Although orthopedic treatment is generally considered to be the preferred option, surgical treatment remains a limited option, depending on a number of criteria, including the type of fracture, the site, associated lesions, failure of initial treatment and the occurrence of complications. Our work brings together a series of 24 cases of clavicle fracture collected in the orthopaedic traumatology department (A), IbnTofail Hospital, CHU Mohamed6-Marrakech, between January 2013 and December 2017. The files interpreted from the archive of the traumatology department of CHU IBNO TOFAIL MARRAKECH. Our results were as follows: the age range varied between 17 and 67 years, the average age was 41.79 years with a male predominance (88%).66% of our patients were victims of MVA, the most frequent type of fracture was Type 2B1: 13 cases (55%) (ROBINSON classification), the type of osteosynthesis most used was the screwed plate in 75% of cases, with complications: 2 cases of pseudarthrosis and 2 cases of superinfection.
