The treatment of clavicle fractures has been very recently subject to numerous studies which have questioned the traditional view that we had of this pathology with the thought that we obtain, in the vast majority of cases, an excellent functional result in case of surgical abstention. Indeed, these recent studies have shown that there is frequently a functional impact and a significant rate of non-union in certain types of fractures which could justify surgical treatment. If as a rule orthopedic treatment remains considered preponderant, surgical treatment keeps its indications however limited, but depends on several criteria including the type of fracture, the site, the associated lesions, the failure of the initial treatment and the occurrence of complications. Our work includes a series of 102 cases of clavicle fracture collected in the traumatology department B4 at the Hassan II University Hospital between January 2009 and June 2019. The objective is to analyze the clinical and radiological results of the surgical treatment of clavicle’s fractures, as well as assess the functional outcome after surgical treatment.
