Resumen
»Deforming forces make it difficult to reduce and maintain reduction of Neer type-II distal clavicular fractures.»Contemporary surgical techniques are associated with high rates of union and good and excellent outcomes.»Plate fixation of distal clavicular fractures does not address horizontal and vertical instability.»Hook-plate fixation has the highest complication rate.»Augmentation of the coracoclavicular ligament is recommended to neutralize the opposing forces.
